1997 R33 S2 GTS-t Manual 145,000 km/s Silver, Immaculate inside and out!

Services every 5000km/s or less by BoostWorx (best in Adelaide IMO).Mechanical check is welcome as there is nothing I haven't fixed on this car! One of the cleanest R33 GTS-t going around, clean looks and plenty of power, you will not be disappointed! Drops no oil and I have reciepts for all work and parts besides the fitting of the turbo and FMIC which I lost but I have the part receipts and my mechanic can verify this.

Mods:

Garret GT2540 Ball-bearing turbo

HDI FMIC (brand new >100km's)

300ZX Modded (Nistune) computer and tuned

3" Stainless Turbo Back Exhaust

17" Rims with tyres 90% front and 80% rear

Mongoose 3 Immobilizer Alarm

3a Black Pod Filter

Turbosmart Supersonic BOV (new spring and trumpet fitted)

Apexi EL2 Boost Gauge

Nismo Gear Knob

Turbosmart E-Boost Street 40psi model with External 11psi to 15psi switch (see photo)

Heavy Duty Clutch

Suspension has been modified to be stiffer but not by me so not sure what was done exactly (previous owner).

Pioneer OEL Deck

New AFM fitted (2nd hand)

Rocker Cover Gasket Replaced (to fix a old leak)

ABS Relay Replaced

Steering just redone, new tie rod ends, new hub on right wheel etc

A million other tiny things (seat repaired, wheel guards, gear and hand brake gators, repainted front bar, front speakers, resprayed boot interior, battery leads, brake pads/machined disks etc etc etc)

Basically I have fixed everything on this car and done it up, there is nothing to do. You can find alot cheaper R33 S2's but you wont find one this clean that has no problems. Unfortunately I forgot to get Boostworx to print off the power output but at 15psi it was 220.7RWkW's(295RWHP) but I would recommend if you are lookign at this car seriously ring them and they will tell you I have spared no expense on it and it has been serviced before 5000 ever time. Mods are a good base and with new injectors/pump should be able to make some really nice numbers.

Looking for $14k FLAT!, swaps maybe considered just SMS me. Not negotiable on price as I am not in a hurry to sell but I am looking to upgrade in the future to a GTR. If you think the price is to steep then look at getting a s2 with an Chinese eBay turbo, they are full sik for about 1000km's.

Contact Information: [email protected], sms 0439708081 or PM/Reply

More pictures/Info available on request.

Also there is a video available on request of the car doing its 300rwhp run

NO JOYRIDERS, Thanks for looking!

(I had another post with this car but it was EOI, can the mods please delete that one?)

I have got a few PM's saying that for 14k you should have at least 250rwkws, its 220 at 15psi. I talked to the mechanic today about where to go next in terms of power and he said up the boost to 18psi and you would be getting close to 250 rwkws prolly around 240. Plus the car is immaculate and very very well looked after!

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
