Due to a change of financial circumstances I now need to sell my car fairly soon, I have droppped the price by $3,000 from what it was. I am not going to give the car away so the price of $26,000 is firm. It hurts to sell it at this price but unfortunatly I need the money. Please don't offer any less than this because I would rather be in debt than sell it for any cheaper. My loss will be your gain. I have just spent over $2,000 getting it to run nicely and it will be a great shame to see it go. It will be going in the Trading Post next week so I think it will definatly sell. If your in the market for one don't miss out on the best opportunity you will get.

It is a 1995 R33 GTR with 97,000kms on the clock. It has just had a major service and inspection done which cost me $1400 (with receipts). Everything was replaced including all belts (Earls racing timing belt) and water pump. Platinum tipped spark plugs and Motul Turbolight synthetic oil were used. Overall the car is in very good condition and other than 2 dents in the bonnet nothing needs to be spent. The extras are as follows:-

* 3" turbo back exhaust (Mandrel Bent and Tig welded)

* 2 brand new K&N pod filters

* OS Giken adjustable cam gears

* Greddy turbo timer

* twin plate clutch

* Alpine CD/MP3 player with remote worth $700

* Quictrac alarm worth $1000 with 12 month tracing paid for

* Genuine NISMO clear side indicators

* Genuine factory GTR carpet mats front + rear

* Autometer boost gauge

The car has recently being dyno tuned at Croydon Racing Developments with a result of 216KW ATW on just 13.5psi. The car was tuned for drivability rather than outright power. The turbos come on boost nice and early and the car has a fat torque band. Drives much better than a standard car. This is the best value R33 GTR in Sydney. So if your in the market for one don't miss out. PICS ADDED, BOTTOM OF PAGE

Thanks,

Omar

I would presume it is at 4 wheels but I'm not 100% sure, I did not do a compression test from the service. The engine is very healthy I presume or it wouldn't have spun 216KW ATW with such minor mods.

I took out the boost restrictor to achieve the boost levels which as you probably know is a very safe and economical way to up the boost a little. On the dyno graph it shows a very consistant boost level at about 13.5 psi. I usually keep the restrictor in though which keeps boost down to about 8psi

Yes I would consider a Gti-R, thats what I had before the GTR. Can you please PM me some info and pics on your car and roughly what sort of cash adjustment you were thinking.

Thanks,

Omar

Would you consider a very clean GTIR? Cash on top of course. :dry:

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
