Hey Guys,

It's been a hard decision but I need to sell my R33. I've have it for nearly 2 years now and I have hardly driven it. The reason for my sale is that I cant afford to run it (i.e comprehensive insurance etc). Its a clean example and I had plans to modify it more but never had the money to do so. The car just ran into the blue slip stage.

Some Specs -

1993 Nissan Skyline R33 GTST

89,000KMS

5spd manual

Exedy heavy duty clutch (near new)

17x9 +22 SSR Type-C wheels (needs new tyres at rear)

Lowered Pedders springs

Frount mount intercooler

HKS pod filter

Carbon lip wing

Sony/Panasonic sound system ( head unit, amp, speakers and subwoofer)

Mongoose 3pt immobilizer

20% tints

New battery

The car does have some flaws - the steering rack boot has oil on the right hand side, all inspections welcome im not mechanically minded so your guess is as good as mine.

Price - $5,500 not negotiable I reckon if you part it out you could make some money so I think this price is fair.

NO TIME WASTERS ! NOT NEGOTIABLE SERIOUS BUYERS ONLY

Thanks

I want a quick sale all inspections welcome but please serious buyers only ! whats the catch ? well in NSW it will need a blue slip, so that means I would need to remove the intercooler, change the air intake, get new tyres and fix the leak on the steering rack boot. And rego in NSW = $700 CTP green slip $350 registration. That would equal ? so yeah hence the price which I think is fair.

hey mate, i'm from tassie, will i also need to get the blue slip as well?

or be able to a temp rego to drive it down here?

How much would it cost to fix the leak?

Cheers

i am still trying to sell my subi to buy this, i live in vic i can get a slip letting me drive the car unroadworthy/unrego for 28 days off vicroads, do you think ill be able to do this when im buying it from nsw? so i can drive it home rather then trailor?

I have a little experience with this so I hope you don't mind if I answer.

You can get an Unregistered Vehicle Permit (UVP) from the RTA which will cover your entire trip, including in Vic. You will however need a safety check report, which is what the old pink slip used to be, to certify that the car is at least roadworthy. Weather or not you can get a workshop to give you that without a blue slip first I am not too sure (there is also the added uncertainty of weather it would pass or not and you would have to take it to a workshop first). I know that the UVP from the RTA covers all of Australia, except WA, maybe VicRoads or whatever your version of the RTA is called has a similar deal that will make it so you won't have to bother dealing with the RTA.

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
