Hey All

FS: 1997 S3 R33 GTR V-Spec

Time to sell the GTR. It is a genuine rarity, being a Series 3 V-Spec and having only 33k on it. You can tell the kms are genuine from the wear (or lack of) on the seats, steering wheel, pedals, engine bay etc.

Aside from that I know the history, I bought it off a bloke in his 50s, who has had the car in Australia since 1999. And obviously, has done bugger all driving since then. It is stock, never been 'boosted' and even still has the stock exhaust. I searched a long time for a car like this.

This week on 19 February the car had a full mechanical inspection by Trojan Motorsports (at a potential buyers request) with great results confirming the cars condition, compression test: 1-150, 2-147, 3-147, 4-147, 5-150, 6-147.

Sold guys :laugh:

are you sure it has only 32,000km? From the photos it doesn't look it. Has it had rear end damage? The GTR badge is not placed in the standard spot and the boot lock has been broken off. What happen to the front lip, it doesn;t line up correctly? No offence but my 105,000km 1997 GTR looks in better condition.

Definitely 32kms, it is clear when viewed in real life - engine bay looks new apart from being sprayed the wrong colour back in the late 90s by the Japanese owner. The seat, steering wheel and pedals are as new. The old bloke previous owner damaged the lip (it is low), I ended up taking it off. It had a respray after being keyed - the badge was removed and replaced then. The boot lock badge I don't know about. Very, very minor details considering the car as a whole package and the obvious value.

Please don't attempt to discredit my ad, for what reason? I mean, why bother? I complemented your car you are trying to sell - a high km, recent import (?), non-V-Spec S3 - based on some lovely pics you took. Why go out of your way to question my car? The cynic in me wonders if you are worried about your car being in direct competition with mine?

New Pics (washed it today and it didn't rain this time so looks OK :D)

just how negotiable are you? :huh:

A bit... depends on a few things, like what you have in mind? :)

I can get pics of whatever you want, understand you live interstate (I am on Ausrotary too).

Man the car is stunning! No other words can come close to how much i love and want this car! If sales fall through (sincerly doubt they will because of quality of car) let me know if you want to straight swap for my S14a show car, sadly i dont think it will happen though.

Good luck with sale and if you really wanna swap i am more than willing to have a GTR in my hands and you have a high quality S14a.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
