I know it's not a Skyline, but nonetheless I'm selling up to get some funds for maintenance on the property.

The pictures speak for the car. A very tidy overall car with black leather coulson seats to make the driving pleasure even more admirable, to go with a factory fitted electronic sunroof that tilts up on 4 angles before sliding back. Low KM for it's age and in very original condition. The car has a REMUS cat-back exhaust and is completely standard other than that. 6-speed manual and 5.7

Has R8 factory-upgraded bigger brakes to go along with the R8 sports suspension, climate control, a 10-stacker CD player, cruise control and a standard engine. The body itself is very clean and the full

leather racing-style interior makes you really appreciate the wonder of a HSV. Has a special R8 drivers kit in the center console, comprising of a tire pressure gauge, torch and a Swiss army knife -- all of which HSV branded (as per pic)

A rare opportunity to have a VX series 2 that comes with factory leather AND sunroof, that's been extremely well maintained. Please no tyre kickers, a genuine sale as plans have changed with the real estate so looking to downgrade and let someone else enjoy it

I only drive it to work (airport... I live in Tullamarine VIC) so it doesn't drive much at all. The car is faultless, and I paid that little bit extra to get the leather AND the sunroof, because I know a lot of these come with one or the other.

I have a mate with a VY Clubby that's jealous and wants to swap cars lol, but like I said, the sale is purely to make way for maintenance on my investment property. I'm happy for ANY inspection to be taken place and I'll be getting a roadworthy at that price.

I am negotiable to a serious offer but I don't want to hear "too much" and "my friend got this" etc, because this thing does have the works.

Price is listed at $21,000

Has 170,000 on the clock

Rego till August

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
