Replica is based on a non complianced, non complianceable Sep 1993 GTR with pull type clutch

Engine was purchased in 2007 as a brand new R33 24U N1 crate engine & was fitted into the car in Japan. As most people are aware these engines are/were over $15-20,000 new and a bare replacement engine block alone fetches over $3000 if you can get hold of one - utilising a stronger thicker 'motor-sport casting', obviously fitted with low cavitation N1 racing waterpump, N1 high volume oil pump& Nismo thermostat; Fully balanced forged crankshaft with longer oil drive snout. (eliminating most of the problems associated with early R32 GTR RB26 engines).

When we got the car we fully rebuilt the engine using Ross Racing Pistons, ACl Race Series Bearings & Gaskets with a 1.3mm Permaseal MLS-R multi layer steel head gasket. Engine was Bored .5mm to increase capacity& torque; fully balanced & blueprint assembled.

Head is Std N1 item with N1 Cams, and has aftermarket cam gears attatched, but not yet adjusted from stock position. Engine pipes are polished, and has a full set of powder-coated rocker covers (although not shown all on there). Has brand new Gates racing timing belt, with new Genuine Timing idler & Tensioner bearings. Car comes with but not yet fitted 50mm Aluminium radiator, & gates racing radiator hoses. Car is fitted with a HKS Hard piping kit & Greddy remote oil filter & large front mounted oil Cooler.

Car features Nismo G-Max twin plate clutch & short shifter, is fitted with Nismo 300km Dash; Fully adjustable top camber arms, Adjustable Caster rods & sounds great through a 4" exhaust. Car also has an adjustable 4wd controller, adjusting the amount of drive given to the front of the car (however this has not been used since being installed).

Car is painted in the Infamous 1992 Gibson motorsport touring car champion Livery; However still requires front air ducts to be fitted to front bar & front lip to be installed. Along with a set of N1 sideskirts.

With the original car now being valued close to $1.5Mil it is a great opportunity to get a Replica at a fraction of the price, add this to your private collection or race it on weekends.

Car is Semi race prepped, has had all interior sound deadening removed - but does not have a roll cage or race seat (Has std GTR Buckets fitted currently)

Car does have a race harness fitted; unsure of which wheels will come with the car (as has very ugly 18" wheels that detract from the appeal of this car that are fitted currently with 18" Slicks). We have some other sets of wheels, that may suit the livery better; but this will be open to negotiation by the winning bidder.

We have spent far too much on the car and cannot afford to continue with it any further (would not like to put a figure on the costs so far). Buyer will be getting a bargain with a realistic reserve set. Please do not ask what the reserve is set at. If you are serious about owning this car, then your first bid will break through the reserve.

Happy bidding.

Can anyone help with an idea of what it is worth?

Cheers

In current guise its neither an arse nor an elbow. It isnt a street car and it certainly isnt a race car.

Yes its worth more than the 10 g that the lowballin fat man claims but not much more.

Either finish it as a track weapon or part it out as that is the only way you'll get any money for it.

20k? Unregister able standard GTR with built motor and paint, its hardly a replica... no cage.. no sus.. no wheels

+1

I can paint my GTR with those colours and decals and call it a "Winfield Replica".

nice ad, would lowball again A++++++++++++++++++++

those wheels look like the ones you get from bob jane in a set with tyres for $400 bucks loool. If you're hellbent on selling it, I hope you have receipts for all those parts! may as well keep it or transplant motor etc into a registered car

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
