Hi Guys,

I am putting my GTR up for sale. As a few of you may know, I have only had the car for approx 4-5 months but I slipped a disc in my back a few months ago and have been advised to sell as the car is just not helping my recovery process overly well.

Here is a little about the car-

White 1990 GTR with N1 Body Kit.

30,000km R33 engine put in by Creatd Motorsport just before I bought it, body has 120,000kms.

Extreme Heavy Duty clutch put in by Creatd for me before I picked it up (4 months ago)($600)

White After market illuminous dash (blue or green).

Momo Race Steering Wheel, Momo Gear Knob and Pedals.

Split Fire Coils 1 month old. ($600)

New exhaust made up from performance exhaust as the other was too loud for me with a new cat. ($800)

Ohlins adjustable coil overs.

CD Player ($250) & New Alarm.($250) + labour= $800 all up.

Tinted windows by Tint Professor ($265)

Seats in Perfect Condition.

Very well looked after in short time as this was to be a keeper, but my back is not responding well to the low ride or the use of the Heavy Duty Clutch as this is aggrevating my sciatic nerve.

As you can see I have spent quite a bit of money getting this car nice and idy and is approximately 90% complete, the car had a stock engine and all belts including timing belt were replaced when engine went into cat about 5,000km ago. This is a great looking car and is ready for anyone wanting a stock solid GTR as this has been my daily driver for 4 months.

Price- $22,000

If you are keen to purchase or have a trade in mind, let me know and you can call me on 0401-004-999 to discuss car further and I can fill you in more on this beauty.

Thanks for looking and all the best.

Genuine buyers only thanks.

Jamie.

Yeh I am a sucker for a good GTR or twin turbo, but it looks like my back has said enough and I need to listen. So my loss is someone elses gain. Thanks WLDCRD.

I am open to offers to as it is my everyday driver, I cant spend too much time driving this baby. As far as trades go, I think i will have to stay away from the skylines for now, so thanks for the offers guys but maybe something more comfortable. It is a very regretful sale and will impress on inspection.The interior is immaculate and the back seats look like they have never been sat in.

Jamie, sorry to hear about the injury. I'm recovering from 3 years of a ruptured disc at L5-S1 and a herniation at L1-2. Last surgery was 3 months ago now. At that time I could no longer walk due to nerve damage.

I drive the GTR33 everyday after installing Recaro seats and SK's Bilstein suspension and it is very comfortable but can be a little jiggly on cold mornings until the shocks warm so all may not be lost. I did spend a fair bit of time driving my V8 Soarer about with heated leather seats and airbag suspension but it lacked lateral support. I have good recovery now from my surgery and support from my Chiro (that my surgeon wanted me to see) who has treated the nerves and strengthened my back so I am now better than I have been in 3 years.

Good luck with the sale but there may be an alternative to getting rid of the GTR.

Hello Jamie,

Im very interested as im in the market for a GTR....

I've just tried to call ur mobile but went thru to msg bank, so i'll try you later on.

Cheers

Erno

Thanks GTRgeoff. Yeh I know what you have been going through and am so glad to hear that your recovery is going great. I had a double disc herniation at L4-5 and L5-S1, spent 15 months lying on the ground, OUCH!! I think now for the benefit of my lifestyle that is so important to me that I really need to make a smart decision here and probably move on, of course until I can afford the new GTR coming out in 2007-08. Keep up the great recovery and will keep you posted with the outcome.

Erno, great to speak with you and the type of person I would like the GTR to go to. Talk to you on sunday.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
