im not sure, and i might be wrong, but it looks like the gtr owned by this asian gym-junkie that goes to the monash uni gym....i remember the plates......

either way, if ur interested, might be worth checkin out.

edit: ok its not the same one. I remember the one i was checkin out at the monash carpark had the 1996 s2 steering wheel...this doesnt (even though its a 1996)

Think i've seen that car around our area (I'm from rowville as well). A few times in traffic on the way to work, a couple of times around knox (parked near noodlebox/pizza hut etc..)

Since it's local, if you want I'm happy to come check it out with you, let you know what i think of it - but i'm no mechanic, just owned one for about 4 years now :P

Ummm am I missing something? I would have thought there is more than one R33 GTR for sale on carsales so how do we know what car you are talking about? I had a long day so maybe im missing something.... :)

He got some opinions and he's satisfied with that. Thanks for your interest. :P

Yeah, I did end up having a look at it, but I haven't done anything definitive yet. The car does look in good nick and well cared for, I'm just in the process of weighing up my options, etc. :)

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
