The car is a 1994 R33 GTST (series 1) (located in the ACT)

I have owned this car since late 2006 as my daily driver, in that time it has gone from having nothing more than a pod filter and a cat back exhaust to what it is now.

The car has been regularly serviced in the time i have had it, and as of right now the engine has around 6-7000km since it was refreshed (Late July 2011 (by Proengines) and was initially built in august 2009 (by proengines) after the stock RB25 spun a big end bearing).

The car has ACT rego until Nov 2012

The car has been engineered for the RB25/30 conversion including all engine mods and aftermarket suspension (with full emissions testing you do not need to modify the engine in any way for rego)

The paint and bodykit are completely standard except a copy GTR rear wing and light up "SKYLINE" fascia above the rear bumper.

I have receipts for most of the parts or work done to the car including dyno sheets over time as it has been built up from its stock 130kw to its current 394kw

Mods list (i have probably forgotten a few):

Engine:

RB30 series 2 Block

R33 RB25DET head

Forged pistons (Arias 9.3:1 CR, oversize 86.5mm bore)

Cometic MLS 1.3mm Head gasket

Pro Engines extended oil pump drive

RB26 standard water pump

RB26 N1 Oil pump

External oil feed for VCT using T piece at the oil pressure sensor.

ARP main studs

ARP head studs

ETM high mount exhaust manifold

Synchronic 50mm external waste gate (plumbed back into exhaust but could be modified to a screamer without much effort)

ETM 4" Dump pipe

3.5" front pipe

Modified Apexi N1 3.5" cat back exhaust (this should pass RTA noise tests)

3.5” in/out 5” body 100cpi Vemom cat (i also have a 2.5" euro 3 emissions cat you can have if you want)

Garrett GT3582R 0.82 AR rear housing

Greddy Intake Plenum (genuine not a cheap ebay copy)

Q45 90mm Throttle body

600x300x100 intercooler (3" inlet and outlet)

3" mandrel bent intercooler piping

Alloy 52mm radiator

16" thermo fan ECU controlled

Balanced pistons, rods, crank, flywheel. (to within 0.1 gram)

ACL conrod bearings

ACL main bearings

Stock cams with VCT retained

NGK Copper spark plugs (0.6mm gap)

Yellow Jacket coil packs (also have stock coils spare)

Air-conditioning has been removed however i have all the parts in a box

Fuel System:

Nismo 740cc injectors

Bosch 044 fuel pump mounted in tank

Stock fuel feed and return lines

Stock fuel pressure regulator

Electronics:

Vi-PEC V66 Plug-in ecu (Map based, with 4BAR map sensor)

boost controled by ECU + solenoid (currently running 26psi)

Techedge wideband O2 sensor/gauge (hooks into the ecu for wideband o2 control)

Snow performance stage 2 Water Meth injection kit (currently running 51%/49% water/meth (turns on at 8 psi, full flow at 25 psi))

Drivetrain:

NISMO LMGT2 wheels 17x8 with 235/45/17 near new Federal 595 RS-R tyres on the front, 17x9 with 255/40/17 near new Federal 595 RS-R tyres on the rear (all 4 tyres replaced early feb)

Tien HA coilovers (includes height adjustment spanners)

Standard calipers, with slotted disks all round, EBC Yellow pads on the front and EBC Red pads on the rear

JJR Adjustable upper arms front and rear

Hicas Lockbar

Jim Berry full monty clutch

Gearbox rebuilt with new bearings, seals and synchros in 2009 as the 5th gear syncho was failing.

Diff has had 4mm total worth of shims installed, it acts like a locked diff currently.

Cars bad points:

Paint in general is not fantastic

Has had a couple of small bumps over the years (no crashes)

There is a small oil leak that had recently developed (few drops after driving)

Drivers seat does have a tear in the fabric

The car is currently making either a clutch or gearbox noise at idle, this does not affect how it drives but have been advised not to drive it until the gearbox/clutch can be removed and checked out properly, as such it is not currently being driven. - Fixed

Looking for offers of $23k or $20k if you want to take it as is (no silly offers people this car has had a lot more than that spent on it and is stupidly fast for the money)

The only cars i would be interested in swaps for are: BF XR6 turbo or Nissan Stagea 260RS

NO TEST PILOTS, test drives are for serious buyers only, this car is not a toy.

Anything else please PM or call/sms 0419302418

couple things i have realised i forgot to list in the original.

it has an ASR 6.5L baffled/gated sump and aftermarket valve springs.

it has a side head oil drain and and extra oil return fittings welded to the sump (everything that returns oil to the sump has its own fitting, no T pieces or Y joins)

Has adjustable upper arms front and rear

Stereo setup, Eclipse head unit (fairly standard cd/mp3 support), 4x mids, 4x tweeters, 1x 12" metal cone elcipse sub in custom fiberglass box (running off a 760w RMS amp)

The water meth setup has a boot mounted 9.5L tank (this is enough to do quite a few laps on most tracks before you will run into surge issues (gravity feed into the pump))

few more pictures

Light up "skyline" logo on the rear

The car is currently making either a clutch or gearbox noise at idle, this does not affect how it drives but have been advised not to drive it until the gearbox/clutch can be removed and checked out properly, as such it is not currently being driven.

This issue has now been fixed.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
