I've owned this car since Feburary last year. The history of the car is that is was bought in Tasmania, then somehow managed to make its way to the Central Coast, where it had a manual conversion done. I have receipts for every single bit for the conversion as well as almost everything else done to the car. Wheel alignments, window tint, springs you name it. It was then taken to the auctions where one of the auctioneers bought it because it was such a clean car. He owned it for around a month up until he sold it to me in Feburary last year. Since then i've taken extremely good care of her as it's such a clean car for it's age.

I've done all the mods, however I have all stock items (except for headunit) so it can be returned to stock if wanted. In the time that i've owned it, the ONLY things that i've had to replace is the voltage regulator which was a $30 fix, left hand side handbrake cable and the driver side front guard which i replaced, as there was a hole of rust underneath on the bottom. There was no rust behind the guard like many R31s with this problem. A few weeks ago I replaced the clutch slave cylinder as it was leaking. Bought a brand new one for $29, and all is good now :banana:

The dash has been replaced in it’s time, it does not have the amount of K’s the speedo says, however I’m not sure what the exact K’s are. Judge the car by it’s condition, not the speedo. There are the usual few dents and scratches, but overall it's straight as. Hasn't been resprayed, the paint is nice great condition. The pin striping is missing on one side from when I went to the carwash once lol (never again), not a big issue.

Serviced every 5,000K's. I've done a few trips from Armidale-Newcastle as I'm at Uni here in Armidale. The car runs brilliantly every time, cruise control is so handy.

The engine runs extremely smooth as does the gearbox and clutch.

Interior is mint, dash is 100% perfect, no fading or cracking, no wear at all on any seats. Carpet is a little scuffed from vacuuming, but that's a normal R31 trait.

All electrics work including the cruise control! Which means the manual conversion was done correctly and properly, because the cruise control still works.

It has Remote central locking, all power windows, mirrors, steering work perfectly. Air con is still very cold.

The MYR31C plates will be included in the sale. The ‘C’ comes from one of the previous owners named Chris. (random fact)

The reason for my sale is that I have just bought an R34.

Included will be a set of standard Ti rims, stock steering wheel, shift knob, rear garnish, mudflaps, dash mat, sway bars, spare front struts and anything else I have for the car like badges etc.

The original standard jack and accessories to change wheels are all included, aswell as the spare wheel carpet and spare wheel strap.

Problems: The main problem is that the driver door does not lock/unlock with the remote, so you have to manually lock it, and open the door from the inside. It’s an easy fix I would assume.

The speedo reads about 13kmh fast because of the manual conversion.

Also, the cigarette lighter doesn't work. There seems to be a bit of corrosion on the inside, so it might not be making a circuit. Will check it out a bit later, doesn't seem like a big issue.

I've been completely honest with this advertisement and tried to describe the car as best as I can.

*Note* - The Nismo Gearknob will not be included in the sale.

- Autospoiler is now no longer on the car, price adjusted accordingly

If you would like to view the car and are from Sydney/Newcastle I can meet you in Newcastle or Central Coast.

I have taken the time to make a fully detailed write up, to save everyone's time. Please read it!

Now for pictures - Some of these pictures aren't completely recent. The only thing that's missing in some of the pictures is the JDM Garnish.

Yes there are alot of pictures, but who doesn't want heaps?

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      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.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      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

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
