Immaculate Series 3 R33 Gtr

[R33GTRKid]

It is with much regret and for a genuine reason that I have to sell my GTR.

The car was purchased at auction on 20 June 2008, delivered to me in October 2008 by Imports 101, went to X-speed for performance upgrade modifications and has travelled less than 1,000 kms in Australia.

There were two marks on the car when I had it delivered, a small pin dent on the passenger door which has been fixed and a small scratch on the front bar which was removed and resprayed. The car is perfect inside and out (the dots on the seats in the pictures below is rain, there are no marks on the seat at all). There is some minor gutter rash on the front left rim which is not really noticeable and can be fixed for $100 at autorim in Malaga.

All engine, coolant, brake, diff's and transfer case fluids have been changed with top of the line Motul (save for the transfer for which genuine Nissan was used).

Details are as follows:

April 1997 Series 3 GTR, genuine grade 4.5 vehicle with 59,125 kms, auction papers and overall internal and external condition prove grade and kilometers are genuine - (there is no star or symbol next to the odometer reading on the auction paper indicating genuine kilometers).

Engine:

all fitted at X-speed and tuned by Ant Scali - less than 750 kms old (all parts purchased new) are as follows:

Tomei poncams type B (260,260,9.15) with adjustable cam gears,

Tomei cam cup stud kit

All new genuine Nissan shims

Mines Cam cover baffle kit

Nismo adjustable fuel regulator

HKS fuel pump

HKS turbo timer

M's power intake

HKS racing chamber kit

Tomei exhaust manifolds

Mines stainless pro front pipes

Kakimoto 3.5 cat back

HKS extension kit

HKS GTSS turbo kit

Sard 700cc injectors

HKS evc 6

PFC djetro

splitfires coil packs

Essential oil catch can with earls lines

Tomei timing belt

N1 water pump

New idler and tensioner pulleys

Custom powder coated engine covers and Tomei decorative spark cover

Car was dynoed at 380 rwhp on run in tune at 16.2psi and obviously has alot more in it but Ant wanted to make sure everything bedded in properly before leaning on it. X-speed can be contacted for details about the leak down and compression test that was done before the modifications commenced but they all came back perfect.

Wheels:

18 x 10 Works Meister SP12 wrapped in Bridgestone Potenza RE-01's

Alarm:

Autowatch premium with microwave and smash sensors

Suspension:

Tein adjustable coil overs

Clutch:

HKS GD Max twin plate

Interior items:

Apexi Boost, Water and Oil Temp 60 mm gauges with Apexi Gauge controller

Pioneer stereo, controller unit and LCD display (LCD not currently fitted)

genuine GTR full mat set with metal logo

With today's exchange rate (and if you could find a series 3 in this kind of immaculate condition - I had to wait 5 months of daily searching auction sites) you would pay at least $40 k to get landed and complied (in stock condition) and then the parts would then cost another $20k

I am looking for $45,000. Many in WA have seen the car and know that it presents like a new car. Plates will be included if sold to someone in WA.

Pictures:

NB the three gauges are now mounted above the centre console in a Nismo 3 pod holder and I bought a new a-pillar shroud to replace the one where the old trust 2 pod holder was mounted.

Can be contacted on 0438 942 693 for any questions

Cheers Simon

having looked around in here and seeing what is going and speaking to a number of shops, reduced $40k

[arabian_drifter]

[R33GTRKid]

interest rates are cheap mate, grab a small loan for the balance cost ya like $25 a week over 5 years

380 hp at the rear tyres, what did it make on all fours ?

[eMsta]

fck - that is one clean gtr!!!!!!! wish i had the money for it

[avs4]

Yep, it sure is .....

[arabian_drifter]

rnt personal loans and finance loans like 15 - 18 percent?

New Intercooler hardpipe kit is also installed, cams dialed in, fresh oil and filter and ALL other fluids changed less than 3,000 kms ago

Putting down a very safe 436.9 rwhp at about 16psi now, see my 'replacement EVC, cams dialed in' thread for details and dyno sheets.

To put it simply, the car idle is lumpy as and response is through the roof and pulls hard. Torque is up too and it just rockets out of second gear corners!

This car really is the complete package, I have been looking in Japan at the moment and if you could find a GENUINE grade 4.5A (only not a 5 because over 50,000 kms) you would be lucky and it would cost you $40k plus to license and comply. THEN with the dollar against the yen as it is, you would spend another $25 on parts, plus install and tuning. All this has been done in the last 4 months with less than 3,000 kms travelled, you really are looking at $65 to $70k replacement on what is all brand new parts.

[R33GTRKid]
