Hey guys

I bought my GTR last year in february as a stock standard 1999 V-Spec GTR.

After a few weeks I took it to Japanese Motorsport to get upgrades done.

These upgrades include the following (all brand new!)

post-50722-1245129022_thumb.jpg

2x HKS 2530

2x HKS heavy duty actuators

2x HKS stainless steel dump pipes

Kakimoto front pipe

TRUST PEII Drag Exhaust System + titanium tip

Apexi ECV ( quitens the exhaust noise via cockpit)

HKS Type R Intercooler

HKS Racing Chamber (hard pipe kit)

Nismo Fuel Pump (rated 4.6L/min)

Nismo 600cc injectors

Apexi D-Jetro PowerFC + Apexi boost control kit + hand controller

(stock air flow meters still in place, despite using the D-Jetro MAP sensors)

Tomei Type B Poncams 260IN/260EX, 9.15mm lift (delivers more power at high RPM)

HKS Cam Gears

HKS Timing Belt

Nismo water pump

Nismo oil sump baffle

Nismo twin plate Super Copper Mix Clutch kit

Nismo oil catch can (with return line that drains into the sump)

All gaskets were replaced with new ones and the rocker cover was painted in shadow chrome

It was tuned by Martin Donnon and made 328kw at the rear wheels (1.4bar boost) on his Mainline Dyno.

On the road the car is a weapon with instant response and spine tingling acceleration that pulls all the way to the redline!

I also had Tein Super Street coilovers fitted (height + dampner adjustable)

I bought the EDFC to control the dampning from the cockpit but this is still to be fitted

Cusco Rear camber arms have also been fitted to square up the rear.

Wheel wise I went for a set of 19 x 10.5 Bronze TE37s with the +12 offset which sit tuff as on the GTR!

Tyres are Toyo Proxe 4: 265/30/19 and are as new since the car is only driven about once a month:(

I'm yet still to fit the Nismo side skirts and rear pods aswell as a set of rare Nismo guard flares (4 flares)

aswell as a set of Nismo clear front bar indicators

Once the car was finished at Japanese Motorsport it was taken to George and Theo at GT Autosound

for the alarm and sound system. This includes:

MB Quartz splits

MB Quartz amp

Basstube 12" subwoofer

Pioneer DVD player (plays DVDs through standard in dash monitor)

Dynamat was used in both doors to improve sound quality!

The car also comes with a 320kph Black Face dash cluster with odometer reading 40,471kms

The alarm I chose was the GM500 which SMS's you everytime your

alarm is triggered you can also go online and track the whereabouts of your car!

Finally I fitted a Red Carbon Fibre Bride Low Max Gias seat that not only

feels great but looks perfect against the bayside blue paint of the car!

My GTR has been meticulously looked after and parked in a 24hr security monitored

carpark. The car is rarely driven, on average its probably taken out once a

month (never to circuit or drag strip either) and only been washed 4 times in the last year and a bit!

In total the car owes me close to $100,000 (I have receipts) but I'm willing to let it go for $77,000

I will negotiate with those who want to buy it without the sound system. and sorry! no trades.

I'm also selling my 200sx that I just finished building please check other posts for that:)

If you have any questions you can contact me (Vinh) on 0434 100 131

or eski51 [at] internode.on.net

Location is Adelaide City.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
