Hey all,

I have changed my mind and decided to sell my R33 instead of replacing the engine.

It's a 1993 R33 GTS series 1 with a suspeced spun bottom end bearing

asking 5K neg

ENGINE/DRIVELINE/ETC

  • Factory manual
  • Heavy duty clutch
  • Catback exaust with 3" cannon exaust
  • Engine oil & oil filter changed every 5,000-7,000 km
  • Gear box oil just changed
  • Brakes fluid just changed (inc bleading of all lines all the way through)
  • Recently changed radiator fluid
  • 18*,***kms (mostly highway, I live in Whyalla)
  • King Lowered Springs
  • KYB shock (less then 10,000kms old)

EXTERIOR

  • Full viva garage type 2 bodykit (light damage to front bar, nothing structural to the car)
  • 25mm flared guards front and rear
  • re-spray in blaze blue (outside and door jams only)
  • Xennon lights (low beam)
  • stock rims with near new tyres, can arrange 17" ROH rims with near new tyres for a bit more (cannot remember tyre type but about 250-280 ea)

INTERIOR

  • Very good condition, besides wear on right side of drivers seat and wear on handbrake "grip"
  • Genuine skyline floor mats (all 5)
  • Average sound system; 4" JBL parcel shelf, clarion cd player
  • Momo steering wheel with boss kit
  • Isotta shifter
  • Climate Control globes replaced with white 40,000MCD LED's (very bright white light)
  • Ignition light also replaced with 40,000MCD LED

THE BAD

Knocking noise from engine, 90% sure its a big end bearing. has not been driven since the noise started

slight power steering leak, one of the seals in the pump is on it's way out

flat battery, car has been sitting there for a couple of months

This car would either be great for someone as a first car or someone on their p's, although a new engine or a bottom end rebuild will be required.

Also would make a good shell if you have written off your R33 and just need to transplant parts.

Or just make some cash and either replace the engine or part it out

May be able to drop the price a little if you don't require the gearbox.

The car is currently located in Whyalla SA, can transport to adelaide at your expense

Best bet would be to text me on 0407971706

Cheers Luke

Pictures will be up 2moro

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
