Mature owner, I purchased this vehicle from a lady doctor in 2011.

The car has been meticulously cared for and like all my vehicles, the interior steam cleaned washed and waxed every 4000-5000kms.

Performance wise, the engine is in top condition (any mechanical inspection welcome).

It runs beautifully without any leaks, smoke, misfiring or hiccups what so ever.

Fuel consumption is nothing short of amazing. Averaging 7.5-8L per 100km around suburban traffic and city congestion.

Highway consumption from 5-6L per 100km.

Extremely economical. One full tank lasts me three weeks.

The vehicle is very quick and satisfying but maintains the class, quietness and refinement of a prestige European vehicle when a relaxing drive is required.

I will guarantee you that this car will not disappoint.

Ideal for a family of five or for anybody who has always wanted a modern, classy, European performance car with the convenience of the Automatic self-shifting DSG transmission.

Condition: Interior is excellent condition. No cigarette burns, fade, rips, threading or stains.

Whilst driving there are no creaky noises or rattling sounds from in cabin.

Body wise, there is no rust or damage. The glossy red paint and clear coat is 100% intact without a fault in sight.

Wheels have some scuff marks from the previous owner. This has been considered into the price.

Headlight lenses have recently been restored to new condition for optimum seeing distance at night (see photos).

I urge you to view this vehicle in bright light and during the day to judge its condition for yourself.

Contact: 0432 0400 10

Vehicle is located in North Strathfield, New South Wales

Call or SMS any time if you would like to organise an inspection and test drive.

Strictly: No time wasters, free test drives, jet pilots or large groups of young people.

Vehicle to be released once funds have cleared.

I will decline any test drive or inspection if I feel you are not a genuine buyer.

Vehicle has been advertised on other enthusiast websites and car clubs.

Thank you for your interest :)

Wish i could matt i've owned an M35 a long time ago hehe.

However I will consider swap for Lancer Evolution 8 GSR and depending on condition might add cash your way too.

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
