Key Details

Model: 1996 Series II R33 GTS-T Coupe (Type M, in case anyone cares)

Transmission: Manual

Colour: Black

Mileage: 90,XXXkm (While kms on imports are unreliable, this car has been in Aus for 6 years and over that time has averaged about 5,500km per year)

Roadworthy: To be provided with sale

Location: Ashwood, Victoria (a couple of K's down the road from Chadstone shopping centre)

Price: I'm looking for $16,000 ONO. This price is negotiable, but I will be more likely to entertain lower offers if you've actually come and seen the car, rather than just throwing figures at me over the internet. However the worst thing I can say is no, so go ahead and give me a try. I'm keen to sell but not yet desperate, so please no offers for anything ridiculous like $10k.

3" turbo back exhaust

17" Advan VS-5 rims, 8" wide on front, 9" wide on rear; all four rims have Dunlop Lemans LM702 tyres with good tread

Hey guys, the time has come to sell my R33 as due to a change in financial circumstances it's no longer possible for me to hold onto it. I bought the car from another forum member about 2 years ago (Original Ad) and have never had any real problems with driving it as my daily. The car's reliability has been great and I've driven all over Victoria with confidence; serviced every 5,000kms or sooner.

The previous owner dynoed car at 220rwkw on ~11psi (see dyno sheet attached). This car would be great for someone who likes to keep a low profile - the car is outwardly stock apart from the wheels and exhaust, and from the mostly stock looking engine bay and stealth ECU install to the quiet, unassuming exhaust (unless you're at 6500rpm :blush:) you won't bring any unwanted attention. While I'm not reccommending this to others, I did drive this car daily for the last 6 months of my P's and was only pulled over once, and even then although the officer checked under the bonnet etc I didn't recieve any fines/defects. I have never been pulled over since, despite driving daily all over Melbourne.

Interior is in great condition, with the only blemish being moderate bolster wear on the right hand side of the driver's seat. Car has been a daily so has a couple of minor dings and scratches, but exterior is pretty good. The paint is good for a car of its age, except for a couple of small spots where birds have gotten the better of it. I can also provide a number of stock parts for the car, as well as an additional muffler (which I was told is louder than the one on the car now, I've never tried it though).

Feel free to contact me via PM, via e-mail at [email protected] or on 0432 561 417. If I don't answer the phone please leave a message and I'll get back to you.

Cheers,

Jeremy.

Cheers guys, I appreciate the kind words. It's nice to know I've been turning up to uni often enough to be noticed :D

Also, I just realised that the sticker on the back of the car may need some explanation - if you look carefully it currently only says "GTS25" instead of "GTS25t". This is because I removed the "t" when I was on my P's so as to draw less attention, and I never bothered replacing it afterwards as I enjoy the sleeper element (though of course anyone who knows what's what can tell by the red GT badges, 5 stud rims and FMIC). I'd like to state clearly though that the car is a GTS-T and has always been as such; I'm happy to provide the VIN for people to check this up on FAST for evidence. Anyway, it's my intention to source a brand new sticker from Nissan to pass on to the new owner as I realise most people would prefer it intact.

Cheers Rob, the car's been great and I'd love to keep it - but unfortunately real life is getting in the way!

Car's still for sale guys - as mentioned above, price is definitely negotiable so give me a go.

Also, may be willing to swap for a manual 4-cyl with a bit of poke, not too old (pref '95+) with $4k - $8k my way depending on car. Sort of things I'd consider are Civic/Integra VTI-r, EP82 Starlet GT, AE111 Levin, Ignis Sport etc. Nothing too high maintenance/insurance like 180s, Silvias, WRXs etc as I'm selling to reduce costs and net some cash.

Car's still for sale guys; I'll reduce the asking price to $15,500 ONO - this is still negotiable so feel free to throw me offers or try me on swaps. I'm happy to answer any other questions too so just let me know. Cheers.

Hey again everyone, as rego is coming up on the car in about 6 weeks, I would love to sell the car before then. Accordingly I'm lowering the price to $15,000 ONO - and this is still negotiable. If I am able to sell before rego is due I will be much more accommodating on price - once the car is reregistered though I won't be in such a hurry, so if you want a bargain best to get in quick. Feel free to send me an e-mail/PM/SMS/call me with an offer, I always make sure to reply to everyone. Cheers.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
