Got called up by NRMA this morning telling me what they've settled on for my insurance. I get a sum of cash and the wreck of my car.

I would love to get it fixed up in my own time with my own parts, but unfortunately that isn't really an option :D

This being the case, I'm looking to sell the effective "shell" of an R33 to someone for a decent price. The car itself was slid up a gutter, not at a direct right-angle to the curb, with most of the impact seeming to be on the rear wheel. Other than suspension damage, wheel damage, possible diff damage, and a probably buggered clutch, the car should be in good condition.

I'd rather try to sell the car whole, than have to take parts off it and sell them separately, but will sell parts if someone needs something specific.

NRMA valued the wreck at $4k, but who knows what they're on.

Car is currently located out at Pickles in Fyshwick, down side of the block (last I saw it) on the left when facing the building from the road. Happy to come out and meet up to look over the car if you're interested.

FYI there's no panel damage on the car, other than gravel rash on the bumper, a scratch on the right corner of the front bumper, and a scratch on the right rear bumper corner. No dints, cracks, or missing pieces. Very few blemishes on the paintwork either.

Call/SMS me on 0431391359, or just PM me.

74,000kms, only mods were turbo timer, lowered springs, and 18" wheels. Never been run above standard boost, everything else in the car is stock, except the battery (which has only been used to start the car about 10 times, about 2 months old. Came with 3 year warranty etc, can provide receipt :D)

That'd be a good idea, because once you see mine, if you have the motivation and access to a decent garage, you'll probably be keen as to make a single good car out of the wrecks (assuming you can get the needed parts out of yours)

call me if you want before you head to pickles and i'll come out and go over the car with ya, coz if you're interested in it we can at least talk a few things over. if not, hell there's probably a few things I still need to get off it before some scrubs steals em :down:

The car has now been sold. Thanks/sorry to those of you who expressed interest in parts of the car, but I'm sure you understand that I'd rather have sold it all in one go, rather than wreck it myself. The buyer was only looking for the engine in particular, so what he does is with the rest of it is up to him. If you'd like to know who bought it if you're still after a particular part, PM me and I'll tell you. That way you can at least get onto them to see if the part is available.

Thanks :P

(PS Shell, might as well lock this thread for the hell of it :down:)

    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
