Hey All

Unfortunaelty for me, due to recently purchsing a house, it has come time for me to give up my Skyline. I've owned this car for 2.5 years and i have to say it has been the most reliable car i have ever owned, i service the car every 5000k's religiously (Oil and filter) and maintain everything else as it should be: Timing belt, tensioner/idler, cam seals, crank seals, water pump @ 175,000, Gearbox oil every 15,000, diff oil done recently.

This car is daily driven and i do close on 1000k's per fortnight driving it, hence the body has some wear and tear: Door got opened on the front right quarter panel, slight dent. Rear right hand side, dent from inside of boot, right at the top of the rear pod, paint chipped off (bout 5c piece size). And only last week - rear left hand side bumper, looks like someone hit it reversing out of a park :D , slight dent to rear quarter, nice scrape mark (mostly polished out) and the rear bar is slightly cracked (bout 3cm long). Front bar, lower section where intercooler pipe goes, scrape marks from high parking cerb, slightly touched it. Paint on roof drivers side starting to fade in small sections, some clear coat peeling. I can provide anyone with photo's of these imperfections if they would like to see it.

Apart from that though the car feels in good mechanical condition, engine feels strong still, idles fine, pulls really well. The aim with the mods was to be a fast, responsive street car. Handles very well and the suspension is not uncomfortable for daily use, not to hard but not to soft.

Would suit someone into 'spirited drives' so to speak :) or someone looking for a drifter to add a few things to and go for broke on the track.

- 1993 Nissan R33 Skyline GTS25T

- Wine Red

- Usual nissan electrics, retracting mirrors/aerial are not working

- Stardard body kit all round (yes it still has the standard rear spoiler)

- 193,000k's

Modifications:

Engine:

- Power FC w/hand controller with Apex'i boost control kit

- Genuine Hybrid FMIC 600x300x100

- HKS Drag Air Filter

- Trust 3" Turbo back exhaust (nice and quiet, doesn't drone)

- Last dyno made 189RWKW on 12psi (0.85 bar)

Suspension:

- Front: Tanabe Sustec Shocks with RSR Springs. Rear: Nismo 4-way adjustable shocks with RSR springs

- Cusco Adjustable Castor rods

- Unknown brand upgraded front sway bar

- Nismo front strut brace, cusco rear

Wheels/Driveline/Brakes:

- 17" Work S2R's, 9" rear with 255/50 and 8" front with 235/45 (rims have a few gouges)

- Nismo solid gearbox mount

- Front: DBA 4000 Series Slotted and Cross drilled rotors with Intima Street/Race pads, standard disc's rear with Lucas pads

- Extreme XHD Organic Plate Clucth (done prob 10,000k's)

Interior:

- Drivers side Recaro bucket seat (rips in the usual places)

- Pioneer CD/MP3 player with 6 stacker in boot

- Pioneer 6-inch splits front, VDO 3-ways at the rear (cranks plenty loud enough)

- Nismo Gear Knob

- New gear stick and handbrake gaitors

Car is booked in next week to get a brand new full set of tyres (Nankangs) so buyer will not have to worry about tyres for a while to come yet.

$11,000 but very willing to negotiate for a quick sale, no stupid offers and if i was looking for a trade of any sort it wold be a very late 90's or early 00's Pulsar, manual hatchback or a corolla of similar specs, but no silvia's, 180s (already got one) or other turbo cars. Basically anything Jap built that doesn't chew fuel, plus depending on age of car and condition, cash my way.

Feel free to contact me if your interested : Adam 0437 247 735

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
