This is a genuine ex-demo car from Abflug Japan, I'm the second owner in Australia. It's travelled less than 8000km since being imported in 2004 and accident free. It's a monster, having run 11.24 on street tyres on the previous tune (full retune in September 2007, and it has been given plenty more low-mid range power, so potentially it could run quicker).

As per the list below, you can see it's an extremely special GTR. This car was previously featured in HPI magazine, where it was the cover car. The mod list is extensive and includes:

- N1 motor

- T88-34D (serviced @ 52,000km by GCG, has HPC coated turbine housing, and a polished compressor cover and heatshield)

- Apexi Power FC Pro ECU with Hand Controller

- Greddy Profec-B Spec II EBC (set to 18 and 25psi)

- HKS cams

- OS Giken cam gears

- 2x Z32 AFMs

- 2x Apexi pod filters

- ARC intercooler

- Custom surge tank with 2x Bosch 044 external pumps

- Earls Speed-Flex teflon-lined braided hose and fittings on fuel inlet lines (fume resistant)

- Sard 700cc injectors

- Nismo fuel reg

- Tomei dual-entry fuel rail

- 4" custom stainless exhaust from the turbo back

- Standard GTR box (5th gear tends to pop out on cruise, but it's still drivable)

- Jim Berry clutch

- OS Giken front and rear diffs

Tuning

- Full retune by Hitman in August / September 2007

- 353kw @ 18psi, 395kw @ 24psi on 98 RON pump fuel.

- Compared to against previous tune (which saw an 11.24sec quarter-mile pass on street tyres), there is a more power down low, with the gains purely from better tuning. Lot smoother up top too.

Exterior

- Excellent condition.

- Genuine Abflug bodykit: front bar, side skirts, rear bar and wing

- Tinted windows

- PIAA fog lights

Interior

- Full interior trim (incl GTR floor mats, standard seats) all in excellent condition

- Willans Super Sport 4x4 harness on the drivers side, retains standard seat belt

- Triple cluster and white Nismo 320km dash have white LEDs (from the 666DAN group buy)

- Momo steering wheel

Gauges

- Autometer Phantom 5" Tacho on the centre of the dash with shift light

- 6x60mm gauges set into the dash above the glovebox. The Greddy 'Warning' meters are all electrical and have adjustable max/min points with recall:

GReddy Warning Oil Pressure

GReddy Warning Oil Temp

GReddy Warning Water Temp

GReddy Warning Exhaust Temp

GReddy Warning Boost Pressure

Greddy Oil Pressure (actually teed into the fuel line to check pressure)

- 2x60mm gauges set in a CF panel in glovebox:

SARD Exhaust pressure

SARD Fuel pressure

Audio

- Alpine 6.5" speakers ('6233' front and SPS-170A rear)

- Alpine CDA-9856i headunit

- Alpine MRP-F250 4ch amplifier installed in the boot, custom install by FHRX

- Streetwires 4ga wiring used throughout and Stinger Hyper RCA cables

Wheels / Suspension

-18x9.5 Abflug wheels (black with silver polished lip)

- Kumho 265/35R18 KU31 tyres (plenty of tread, >70% left)

- aftermarket height adjustable coilovers

Other

- Insurance-approved security system installed by licensed professional (with documentation)

- Always serviced with Mobil 1 0W-40

Since I bought it, the main things I had done to it were:

- Fitted a Jim Berry clutch

- Remove and replace fuel pumps, surge tank, and fuel lines (by Advan Performance)

- Installed headunit, amp and cleaned up the front of car gauge wiring (FHRX)

- Tinted windows

- Replaced manual boost controller with EBC (fitted by Hitman at time of tuning)

- RB20 AFMs replaced with Z32s, intake piping swapped, and Apexi pods added (at tuning)

I've got all the boxes, manuals etc for all the parts I fitted.

Can personally vouch for this car..

The first owner did really look after it, and rarely drove it too..

I know vijay has done the same thing and its a shame its now for sale.

So wish i could afford this beast!!

lol i should ask chris if he wants to buy it back!! hahhaha

hey bud very nice car.... considering sellin mine for this one....

one question how has it done only 8,000kms since imported when you state the turbo was serviced at 52,000kms and car is now at 68,xxxkms

68,000 - 52,000 = 16,000???????????

f*k.. sorry that was a typo. Car only has 58,XXXkm, not 68,XXX. Ad fixed..

I have proof of km travelled in Australia which I'm happy to show to any prospective buyer.

Too easy bud..... just checking to make sure...

trying to check finances to see if i can get this

I can confirm the kay's on this car, as i know the previous owner and importer of this vehicle. It was rarely driven and immaculately maintained. It was the importer's own personal hand picked car.

Thanks Paul!

Okay I've dropped the price to $33k, as I'm keen for a quick sale... At this price I hope prospective buyers realise the value you're getting - an extremely well sorted GTR, good looking car which turns heads and goes like a rocket :ninja:

Please note as per the original post, if not sold by the end of November I'll most likely be taking the car off the market...

  • 2 months later...

Car is back up for sale. Selling price is now $30k neg, and I will consider any offers.

If you are interested please PM or phone 0403 178 303.

  • 2 months later...

Bump.

Dropping to $27k ono.

The only issue with the car is that the rear windscreen mounted brake light is hanging loose, as the mounting tape was removed when the car was tinted. It still works and wouldn't be more than a 5 min job to sort out.

damn i would look into it but im not a fan of the kit.. which i guess could be easily replaced but it would ruin a ex-demo car lol

does the engineering certificate cover every mod on the car?

could be interested

  • 4 months later...

Price dropped and first post updated. I'm now overseas working but the car is still for sale. Will be back in Sydney for a couple of wks in Christmas but I would hope the car is sold before then.

I've had a few queries from interstate buyers - please do your own research in regards to whether it can be registered interstate, and consider the level of modifications on this car.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
