Seller wants a fair bit more than that.

Car is virtually showroom condition

I am no expert on R31's but these machines seem to be up to $15k depending on condition. It has low kms and if it is in showroom condition it would be around that mark. Then again, in this current used car market who knows?

well i know of one with a 2JZ, and one with e fully kitted RB26dett... if its either of them.... buy it.

No nothing like that mate.

For a classic that will appreciate you need something stock that hasn't been mucked around with.

This one I just bought is stock as a rock

I told the owner if he ever was to sell the car could he let me have first refusal.

So 17 years later he rang me :down:

It's a one owner car with log books and only 100,000 kms

But that something extra for me was the fact that it is numbered 001

I have seen a GTS1 with a factoryish turbo kit on it go for 7.5k, was in great condition, if it had an IRS rear I would of considered it myself

Is that VL-turbo factoryish, or rare-as SVD test-mule factoryish?

(And an Aussie GTS will never have IRS)

That a pretty special machine, and deserves to be treated with care!

Thanks for the comments guys

Finally got home from Canada/Alaska after a months holiday.

Car was sitting in my garage when I saw it for the first time.

OMG :)

I'm in love...this car is just like it rolled off the showroom floor.

Next day when I drove her I realised she was not just a pretty face as she drove like new as well.

Car came with 3 sets of logbooks as it was serviced by time not kms so the original logbook was fully stamped by 30,000kms.

Opening the bonnet was a pleasant surprise too...yes the engine bay is as clean as it looks

in 10 years it becomes officially vintage, theres only like 130-150 GTS2s left and its #1...

:)

I got a surprise for you "DriftGTS" vintage stopped in the 1920's and anything after that will never be a vintage car, but there will always be collectables like this.

Great buy Chris, if you can afford to hold on to it for the rest of your life it will be of grand value.

Cheers, D

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By V35Newbie · Posted

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By V35Newbie · Posted

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
