Hey guys,

Well the old girl has given up compression on no.6.

1989 model. Imported/complied in 1999. Gunmetal grey.

90,000km on the motor.

'94 model engine so has long drive crank.

Timing belt/tensioners/water pump (n1) and oil pump (n1) done as well

HKS oil cooler kit with filter relocation

Tomei sump baffle

Profec B spec 2 electronic boost controller

Nismo cluster (so can't be 100% on kms however in very good condition)

Nismo rear subframe (stiffer bushes)

Nismo billet flywheel and button clutch (balanced) Plenty of life left - only done 5000kms

Nismo shocks and springs (firm without being teeth chattering)

Newish genuine radiator

R33 GTR brembos all round with plenty of pad

Wedsport 17" lightweight wheels. (unsure of exact model but can chase up) -so light you can juggle them

Bee R front pipe

Full exhaust

Sounds the goods (less so now that she's low on comp)

Sure i've forgotten lots but it'll come to me.

Body quite good. Has had a respray since coming to Aus. Few scratches and what not but she's 24 years old!

Interior good. 1 tiny mark on dash (not a bubble)

Nismo gear knob

Momo wheel

GPS based alarm with satellite tracking

Sony head unit

Has had oil/filter/coolant/fuel filter etc in last 200kms.

Heaps of hoses replaced under the inlet manifold and also replaced water fittings and other little bits and pieces.

No leaks.

Has rego till November 2013.

Its a great car that just needs the motor freshening up and will be a joy for a new owner.

If the price is right i can include a a forged bottom end that is ready to be put together and lots of spares. (power fc, turbos etc)

Will get some pics up this weekend.

$16000 happy to negotiate with serious people. May seem a bit dearer than the rest but at least you know what your'e gettting.

Located: Castle Hill

Cheers

Luke

Yeh I realise that.

But if you buy a 32 gtr in any condition with a std engine you really have to budget in a rebuild.

Best to know before you buy I reckon.

Like I said happy to negotiate and listen to any offers.

Its not a rusty bucket with a basketcase of problems like all the other ones selling for really cheap.

You make a good point with the shell being rust free, but regardless it's a blown engine worth nothing which you can keep. And you won't find anyone paying 16k for a rolling shell and as much as your negotiable, I'd be guessing a thousand bux if that is all you'll negotiate. I know you just want to try make most the money you paid back but there was an immac rolling shell r33 GTR registrable sell for like 5k which was just missing running gear. I'm just being realistic with you.

I can do it as a rolling shell for a lot less if someone wants it that way.

It would be a but of a shame to see it stripped and tracked though.

Anyway, see what happens. If not it will go in storage till I can get some time to work on it

I had a car that did that. I pulled the head popped the sump pushed out number 6 piston, and re

Ringed and honed it. Since then the car is running perfect compression for years. Have to set the right tolerances but !

Will do $15k as is including power fc and hand controller.

Still trying to work out a price without motor.

Can also do cheaper without wheels.

I'm talking with a couple people about the shell.

I will have to wait and see if they want the loom in it.

As soon as I know something i'll let you know.

Cheers

    • 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).
