Hey Guys,

Have decided to sell my beloved R33 Gtst. Its a 1993 series 1.

I have owned the car for nearly 4 years. I am the second owner in Australia. It had one owner in Japan. Car was imported in 1998 by Jappo Donks in Wodonga Victoria. Car was imported with 30,000kms on the clock and in mint condition. (car now sits at 128,200kms) It was imported by a very close family friend who unfortunately passed away around 3-4 years ago. I purchased the car from the deceased estate. Ive done about 30,000kms since ive owned it.

I fell in love with the car when I first saw it and its this car that got me into Japanese Imports, mainly the Nissan Skyline. So as you can tell this car holds a special place in my heart and has a lot of sentimental value to me. It has taken a lot of thought for me to decide to sell this car. Even as I write this I still want to keep the car, but basically in a financial sense it is the most logical for me to sell it in the situation im in now. I purchased a brand new Proton Gen2 for daily duties and city driving, so the Skyline barely gets driven. On top of that any promotions in my job would mean a company car, so the skyline would get driven even less. It pains me to see it just sitting around gathering dust so I would really like to pass it on to someone that will drive it, enjoy it and treat it as well as I have.

I am originally from Albury/Wodonga. Im now in Melbourne. So the car has spent two years in my hometown where it was driven regularly, to pretty much just sitting around for the last year ive been in Melbourne.

I have full Import Documentation of the car, unlike a lot of r33's these days. I have all receipts for any work done to the car. It has never missed a beat in my ownership and nothing has failed or broken on me. The paint is in good condition as well, and there is still a lot of depth in the paint. The car is over 15 years old now so obviously the paint isnt showroom condition either. Has never been in an accident of any kind.

This car is in better condition than most r33's ive come across, especially in Melbourne. The car has gotten many comments from people working on the car and passers by saying how good of a condition the car is in.

Like most cars on here, it gets serviced every 5000kms, using only quality fluids. Since ive lived in Melbourne its been serviced by Chasers Motorworks in Footscray. All mechanical work was carried out by Dr. Drift in Brooklyn. Car was serviced at Roennfeldt Automotive in Albury when I lived there. Can supply phone numbers and contacts for anyone that wants to get in touch to confirm the state of the vehicle.

Things ive done to the car include:

- Apexi Power FC with Hand Controller

- 3 inch Stainless steel exhaust from the turbo back including Metalcat Catalyic Converter

- Bosch 040 Fuel Pump

- Front Mount Intercooler

- Pod Filter enclosed in Custom CAI Box

- BC Racing Coilovers - Installed and Tuned at Centreline Suspension in Thomastown

- Front Strut Brace

- Sony Xpold Head Unit with Sony Xplod Front Speakers

- Greddy Turbo Timer

- Recaro Sr3 Bucket Seats with Genuine Recaro Rails

- Stern 17" Wheels. 235's on the front, 255's on the rear

- Tinted Windows all round

- Replaced Gearstick and Handbrake surrounds with quality leather replacements

- Nismo Gearknob

- Gktech Deep Dish Steering wheel with Autobots Horn

- Re-gassed the air-con, Now its icy cold :cool:

I have dyno sheets from Dr. Drift where it made 199 rwkws and 500nms of torque. The car was re-dynoed about a month later after I had replaced the old catalyic converter (was an x-force item) to a Metalcat catalyic converter where it then made 205 rwkws.

Like most ads you've read, the car gets baby'ed and treated extremely well. As much as my Girlfriend doesnt like the car for all the time and money I spent on it, she doesnt want me to sell it because she knows how much I love it haha.

Car doesnt draw any negative attention. I live in St Kilda and the car has been driven in many police "hot spots" such as Acland St, Chapel St, Princes Highway and in the city, all either during the day or night and havent once been pulled over or harassed by the police. Been through multiple RBTs and havent been looked at twice.

Car is currently registered in NSW, and it expires in May.

PRICE: $14,000 ONO

Im sure there are things ive left out here, but its all I can think of at the moment. Im in no hurry to sell as I dont need the money. Open to negotiation though of course. Any Low ball offers will just be ignored.

Sorry that the pics are a bit glary.

Best to reach me on my mobile, as opposed to PM.

Cheers Guys!

I keep forgetting things! haha

Also has nismo tinted side indicators if you cant already see from the pics.

Should also add this car is un-encumbered. I own it and the bank doesnt. Not one cent owing on this car in any shape or form.

Up she goes!

Bump for the day!

You get what you pay for, spend the money for some piece of mind!

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
