Due to the lack of interest in the R33 GTR I thought I'd list this as well incase somebody is interested. Wheels and wing do not come with the car. Loking for $19000 with reg or $21500 with susp and reg. Has about 9 months left. Would make a bloody good track car if you want to get on the track. Will smash all gtst's and any wrx that has had under 40k spent on it. It had Laggy R32 N1 turbos on it which I have sold but it was only making 280rwkw detuned for reliability with a 8k rev limit. Stock turbos can make 260rwkw with less lag. Buy it with the susp and see what it will do on semi's. Should run a low 1.20 at Sandown and around a 1.48 at PI with semi's and better brake pads. See my sig below for how it goes on the track. I Don't want to sell it but one has to go

I'm in Melbourne.

Its a 89 model

BODY:

STI Blue

Flared Gaurds

Black boot, no wing

Carbon bonnet + original

I have the N1 side skirts apart from the front pieces because I melted them in a paint stripped bath.

Engine:

HKS 2.7litre forged piston big bore kit - Worth lots $

3.5inch exhaust.

Stock turbos etc

Susp:

Cusco hicas lock bar

Lowered springs

Brakes:

Just fully overhauled

Stipped calipers with new paint and seal kits

324mm R33 GTR rotor conversion

New slotted rotors front and rear

New blue braided lines with solid not rubber crimps.

Interior:

Nismo 320kmh dash

Custom GTR dor inserts

I can supply this with all of the track suspension if interested for $2500 extra and can leave installed

Circuit valved Bilstien shocks by Sydneykid with coilover kit. Cost me a fortune! Out of one of the Production cars SK sets up. They upgraded to DMS(Big $)

Whiteline front and rear adjustable swaybars with extra adjustment holes added and bushes.

Cusco fixed bearing upper front arms 3.5degree neg.

Cusco rear adjustable upper arms with sepherical bearings.

Tein adjustable castor rods with sepherical bearings.

Cusco front and rear strut braces.

I had Tien shocks in my car with the cusco links and the car was alway a handful to drive. Wouldn't tip in and would always oversteer on exit. With the shocks and swaybars I cut about 4 seconds a lap off my times. To give you an idea my car in full roads gear on normal road (280utag) tyres. Couldn't afford to run semi's. It does PI in a 1.52.2 and Sandown 1.23.9 there is easily another 1.5 seconds in both of these track with a little more practice and better brake setup. Still running stock pads in the rear and shit EBC pads front. The car only has 280rwkw. The car is really balanced at the moment and never unpredicable. Slightly understeers through corners and can be made to oversteer if more power is feed on or trail braked. Very safe on the track. No chance of going off unless you do something very wrong.

Put some semi comps on and some better pads and see what your can really do in your car. They say semi comps are worth 3-4 seconds a lap over road tyres.

The car has also done very well and the DECA/motorcana days when I'm not hitting cones. Almost matching the big $ cars with more experience.

It will be the best money you've ever spent.

    • I hope it's actually possible. This is a write off in insurance world.
    • Yup. 2-way with shallow ramp angles. Still works.
    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
    • I guess it’s partially a compromise of how my car is used, wanting to be able to switch from drift to grip with track side on-car adjustment. Also partially with the way the knuckles are set there is more static camber but less dynamic camber gain. 
    • OK, so update from the track day on Friday It was a classic "an unfortunate series of events'. There were a few cars around and when i checked my mirror coming out of the fish hook I notice some smoke from the rear of mine. Looked again and it was getting much worse, I figured I'd blown a turbo or something to got off it and pulled off the racing line. However.... since it is a left hairpin into a right kink, I was on the inside of the next corner. There was a car passing me on the left and a big drop off over the ripple strip on the right......and someone had knocked the witch's hat that was on the apex about 1m onto the track. So, between those 3, I decided to mow down the cone and not damage my car/the other car. Right choice, but surprising result.  The car decided the cone was a small pedestrian so it blew the rear bonnet hinges up to protect their head in the upcoming person to car impact....I didn't see that coming and like an airbag deployment it happened super fast. Straight into the pits from there, everything was driving fine but it became clear it was a coolant leak not smoke, it was billowing up onto the windscreen. Onto the trailer and home. I'll do a separate thread about the repair (once I work out what it is ), but the immediate problem was the bonnet wouldn't open because the front was pinched onto the front bar and would not release. Ultimately we unbolted the hinge from the bonnet, pulled it back a little and it released from the front OK. "There's your problem", the top radiator hose had popped off at the radiator.
