Some of you might remember this car from ZOOMs Project 11s series of stories. Since our track shut in SA (AIR) we cant really complete the story, but here it is, in full 11 second capable trim, department of road transport approved and registered with an RB26DETT for $15,000 ono. Heres the specs -

1992 R33 GTS 4 door

Engine -

RB26DETT R32 GTR engine, rebuilt by Willall Racing to factory specifications (5500km since rebuild)

R33 GTR cranshaft and oil pump used during rebuild for reliability

R33 GTR Intercooler

Stock turbochargers

Power - 244rwkw @ 1.0 bar boost pressure

Performance: 12.56 @ 115mph (AIR 4,6 and Rotor nats)

Transmission

Nissan RE50A 5 speed electronic automatic transmission

Fully built by MV Automatics with extra clutch packs, modified valve body

2800rpm stall converter

Electrics -

Apex Power FC engine management system

R33 GTR fuel pump

Chassis/Brakes

HSD Coil Over adjustable suspension

R32 GTR Braking System

R33 GTS-t 4.11 ratio LSD

Body

R33 GTR Front bar (genuine)

R34 GTT rims with good condition Wahnlis on board :)

This is an extremely quick and bulletproof reliable car that will run proven 12 second passes on street tyres at the drop of a hat, get 10l/100km fuel economy around town, and is legally registerable and insurable in any state of Australia, so no reason to be scared of a defect. This car really is the ultimate sleeper!

Any interested parties enquire by PM....and the car is available for viewing in SA :D

Heres the engine on the stand after it was freshly built ;)

Then after Willall Racing installed it back in the car with the factory airbox and all of the correct GTR parts including an R33 strut brace. This car is the real deal, and ran its 12.5 second pass through both the stock air filter and exhaust. Its a brilliant package :D

mate if i can sell the 180 (or you want a trade even with a bit of cash ur way) consider this sold ;). Im inadelaide too

We are selling the car because we are moving on to other projects. We also dont need to try and make a profit. This is realistic price for a properly thought out and modified car :D

If anyone here knows Willall Racing they will know that their 8 second GTRs are perfectly presented and well engineered, this car is no different. Thats why I had it built by the best :D

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
