Hi,

Looking to buy a purple 33 GTR in about 2 weeks. Was wondering if anyone has seen this GTR around?

Belongs to Brett Rose from South Brisbane?

Just wondering if theres anymore information anyone can give me about how its been treated, etc.?

Cheers, Brett.

Yeah, has bought his S15.

The GTR is making 256kw at all four on 14psi. However its still running standard turbo's. Can anyone confirm? I thought maybe it would be 256Rear wheels rather than all wheel.

Thats a lot of power with standard turbo's for the boost level?

also from what i read, the best he did quarter mile is a 12.61(with a soft launch), i though it woulda went harder than that with 20K put into it even with a soft launch...... anyway car look swell looked after.

just get sum1 u trust to check the vehicle mechanically and for any crash history or repairs. always helps to have piece of mind, no matter who u are buying off.

20K goes along way with a RB26 and yet it still only makes 265kw??

Where did the rest of the money go? >_<

Maybe he's holding back the real power figures?........go the GTR!! :ermm:

you do realise that power is not an indication of how good or reliable a car is right?

supporting mods wont make more power, but will make it more reliable. ie. sump extension, etc etc.

IT has bigger injectors, pump, cams and cam gears, power fc, new intercooler, full 3" exhaust from turbo back. It also has newer standard turbo's.

I myself couldnt see 20 000 right there either, but then again I dont know much about GTR's.

Which is why I thought I would ask you guys.

This engine was built using about $18000, it makes a lot more than 265kw and is has the strength and reliability to support it. So when it comes to reliability versus power, I think I realise more than most mate.

Hiiiiiiiiiiyooooooooo ;)

If he has spent $20000 on this GTR then I'd say he would have reciepts for where it went so just get him to take you through exactly what he's done to the car and that it has the right modification plates to go with it.

      Cheers. I more want it quieter with the varex open. I only have the varex closed when i start up and roll out the driveway to keep everyone happy on days i take the car to work at 5 AM or come home late. So just a mod muffler will do tge trick? Something like that would require a retune hey?

      I was going to say generally speaking if it's like 80k+ miles since the valve cover has been replaced you don't even attempt to just replace the gasket. The valve cover itself will likely be warped and it will continue to leak after replacement, just not as severely. The valve cover PCV diaphragm can also tear and create a major vacuum leak. Welcome to BMW life. My friend's 2006 330i was t-boned and totaled out so he also just got a 335i so I can add to this thread now.

      Odometer LCD is Intermittently Wonky

      By Kip · Posted

      Hi all, For my '98 260rs... The odometer LCD occasionally turns blank or gives me only the bottom half or top half of the numbers. It's intermittent, which leaves me to believe it's a dead solder or loose wire somewhere. The odometer itself works. When the screen comes back, kms have been added to the trip and overall meters. A couple questions: Is this a known issue with the Stagea? I didn't see it pop up in my quick search, but that could be my searching skills. How accessible is the LCD screen in the cluster? I'm hoping it's a remove and replace type situation versus cracking open the whole housing. I'm hoping you all can narrow some of my initial troubleshooting. Any experience or opinions would be helpful.

      Yeah. Seeing the finish line must be quite the motivation. Good on you for sticking with it. Understood about the model choice. Also, totally get the challenge with sourcing parts. Based on your handle, I'm just a few hours south of you. All the little things I've bought so far come with $30 shipping, even if it's just stickers for the boot!

      Go to SP mufflers and get the muffler of size you want and make a nice mid muffler. It's about that simple! I have 2x 3.5 Magnaflow straight through Mufflers and while it's pretty loud with the Varex open, it's quiet enough with the Varex closed. You can also buy off the shelf Magnaflow straight through mufflers as well. You also have a turbo to quiet the car down too. Don't overthink it. Buy my extra Magnaflow muffler sitting on a shelf doing nothing (buy it new, ignore this part)
