Hi guys, car is on sale again but need to fix the scratches on the bonnet and boot (will require respray).

I can sell the car as it is (cheaper) or get it done up same colour (gunmetal and more expensive). If I had continued to stay in Sydney I would have resprayed the car Lamborghini orange :-)

Want to get rid of the car as soon as possible because I'm moving overseas again possibly for good and will need the money for moving cost :-(

Car is still in great shape and runs well (drove to Sydney and back). Had a service checkup and oil change in Sydney with no problems whatsoever. Have always been using Shell V-Power and Mobile One oil. Car still not modified.

Only thing that might need replacement is probably the stock exhaust. Please e-mail me for further details if you're interested. Really want to clear up space and get started on moving out.

BTW, car is now back in Melbourne , cheers.

it probably hasn't changed much and is still worth way more than what he is asking.. ive let a mate know and he may contact you :)

Thank dude, I don't know about anybody else but it's been very good to me, I will miss it.

To be fair to the people who has inquired already,

- If you're interested in getting the car off my hands right now let me know by email and state your price

- If you want me to respray then let me know, the price will be $14K depending on respray costs

I think this is fair because it'll save us all time and hassles.

Hey guys sorry for the delays but I've finally got the car back for respray, I'm very impressed with how it looks now! Will post some photos soon.

Will be e-mailing those who have contacted me if they're still interested in the car, cheers guys for your patience.

Haven't heard from an interested buyer so there's still a chance for everyone, here's another picture for R32 fans.

PS. Regular service have been done ($205), this time with Castrol oil (supposedly better than Motul and Mobil).

Interested buyer didn't get back to me and wasted everyone's time, so car's still available.

Please no more time wasters, I did a lot to keep up the maintenance and paid nearly $2000 recently to fix the keyed marks left by idiots who ruined my ride and my passion for Skylines.

So what was resprayed?

- Bonnet (keyed)

- Front spoiler (detailer recommended to do this to match the rest)

- Front side guards (detailer said the do both to match the rest of the car and will look better)

- Boot (keyed)

I paid more to get it right and it does look a hell of a lot better, not that the car was bad before.

The passion is over, I just want to sell it off so I can move out.

    • 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.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
