I have finally made the decsion to sell my Skyline as for the past 18 months it has driven a whole 1500km as i have a company car and do not need it any more. I have owned it for the last 3 years and it is basically a completly stock car with a couple of minor mods that i have done.

I will be selling it without a RWC as i just dont have time to get one sorted but i dont think it will need much to get one any way.

1995 R33 GTS25T manual Coupe in white. it is the series 1.5

has travelled 127,000km. I bought it at 107,000 and the guy had it imported in 2001 so has been in the country for a long time. He had replaced all the shockies with Munroe sports shocks as well as nolethane bushes in the front.

AT time of purchase i changed the timing belt, water pump and associated items. Also had my steering rack reconditioned due to it leaking

I have changed the oil every 5,000km and the plugs in it are only 1000km old.

Interior is fantastic. No tears in the seats, it has a full set of original skyline mats. The only issue inside is the gearboot and handbrake boot are spilt and the dash surround has a few bubbles in it. It has a aftermarket steering wheel in it. I still have original steering wheel.

It has a stereo with a i pod cord in the glovebox as well as splits in the front.

It has the original wheels on it with basically no gutter rash and good tyres about 75% Standard bodykit with only small marks around it. Pretty clean i think for a 18year old car.

Mods

HAs a 2 1/2 inch cat back exhaust whitch is pretty quiet ( i am mature age so didnt want anything too loud) I have a 2/12 mild steel front pipe that hasnt been fitted as well that will go with the car as well as the standard exhaust.

K & N panel filter in stock airbox.

12 month old new alloy radiator

It runs factory boost just bypassed the two stage to just run 7psi all the time.

I have a set of 18" rims that will go with the car as well that need tyres they used to have 245's on them.

Now the bad points.

Clock spring is broken so airbag light is on. Was going to replace it through Chris but just didnt get around to it

Small amount of surface rust in boot on left hand side.

Boot leaks a little in rain ( which i think most R33's do)

Brakes prob need doing, pads a little low

It has a couple of bushes in the HICAS that are split so they would probably need replacing to get a RWC

NEeds a battery as it has sat for a while ( i prob try and drive it once every 3 weeks) it needs a jump start and it is now not holding charge, I might put one in if i get the right price

IT is a sad time asi love this car but it is not fair on it just sitting around as it is a great car and someone should enjoy it.

Now price. as i said it wont have a RWC i am asking for $6000. I am located in Warner on Brisbanes northside

i am negoitable but i think that is a good price for a vehicle that is basically stock and you can modify it to suite your own style

Eith pm me here or call me on 0405 313 664

I will post pics later today.

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
