So i was involved in a head-on accident on my way to work 4 weeks ago and the insurance company has been kind enough to let me keep the car and dispose of it myself. It is a financial write-off. Im no panel beater so i couldnt tell you for sure if the chassis is bent but im going to hazard a guess and say that it is. As you can see in the photos, the front end is pretty much f**ked. The engine block might be ok but im fairly certain most of the other engine components are going to be cactus. Gearbox might be ok or may be suited for a cheap rebuild if you can do it yourself, not real sure. Best bet is to come have a look. So before the accident the car used to be a:

'95 R33 GTSt S1.5

130,000 kms

Black

Manual

Nistune ECU

5-Zigen turbo back 3in exhaust

FMIC

Pod air filter

Splitfire Coils

Tomei 600hp GTR Fuel pump

Turbosmart Boost controller

Nismo Short Shifter

Excedy Heavy Duty Clutch

Apexi Boost Gauge

Was pumping out a healthy 217rwkw on 12psi with the standard turbo.

I dont have any tools to pull the car apart, nor do i have any room to store parts so im hoping to get rid of the whole thing in one go. Its sitting on the street with no plates so its only a matter of time before i start receiving complaints from the neighbours.

$1.5k in Sydney's Northern Beaches.

Sorry mate , looks bad.I need engine harness.Is there anyway you unplug and sell it ?

Im going to try and sell the whole thing as is first, if not gone in a week or so ill pull the more expensive parts off and sell them separately. Shall shoot you a PM if that happens.

For those that have asked, no the car will not start, and yes it can be re-registered if you wanted to fix it up.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • 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.
