Gday

Thank you for your inquire.

I'm selling my 1995 Nissan Skyline R33 GTR 2.6 manual 117000Kms (RWC available). If you still want it, I'm selling for only $7,000. The vehicle has been well kept, no rust and been recently serviced. Engine starts right up, sounds great and there are no strange noises. I am looking for a quick sale because I am deploying to Afghanistan in 3 weeks. I'm serving in the army and I've just been sent to Northern Territory for training. The vehicle is here with me but transportation is included in the price.

I took great care of the car.

More photos attached.

Cheers.

Probably a scam...

but then again...

I once had a client in the 80s - a family court lawyer > we finished up a session talking about cars > he giggled...

He told me about his female client - a jilted wife...

Her husband took off overseas with his secretary and left his accountancy firm too...

He instructed his wife to sell up his SL500 Roadster and send him half the money...

So she sold the car and sent him $50...

Perplexed, he asked when she'd send the balance after having received the deposit...

She said, "No that's your 50%"!

Hell knoweth no fury than a woman scorned!

Lol could be the case....

I missed out on ebay a few years ago with a subaru impreza sti, at the time it was worth around 7000gbp, it was put on as a buy it now for for 3000gbp. I was sooo tempted and thought it was dodgy... So I left it, then found out one of the guys off the scooby club had bought it instead and it was all legit :( They were going thru a divorce settlement it was her car and he wanted it, she didnt want him to have it.

And he certainly rubbed it in saying i should of bought it when i had the chance!!

So i for one know there is some bargains out there.....

i managed to pick up a R33 for just above the RRP, and when i mean just i'm talking like $50, the car is in mint condition and have had no problems at all, the guy had it originally for about $8,500, and just kept dropping it, managed to pick it up for $7250, i was going to try for lower but when i saw the car and how she went, i thought na, this guy can have what he is asking for, no all i need to do is wait till i get my license back next month

Why did you feel the need to add this?

      Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ?

      HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.

      Who has a Infiniti Q60, Q50 (V37)?

      The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.

      Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?

      R34 25GT Engine Light 21

      By CF.Panda · Posted

      By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
