Silver Nissan Skyline E-BCN R33
Build date 02/1998
Engine RB26 DE TT 2568
Registered in Vic until 17/11/2014

This care was bought and held as a collectors car by my late brother. He was the second owner and purchased it on 19/11/1999 when it had 3564 kms on the clock. It had been kept in storage for almost all of that time. It is in mint condition and has NEVER been in an accident. It has recently been checked by Eric Schlinlener. By brother passed away just over three years ago and now his widow wants to sell it to another passionate collector.

Only about 100 of these cars were ever brought into the country by Nissan and you will not find another with such little usage and still in mint original condition.

This is a GENUINE rare find and a set price has not been decided as it is not your usual car within the market place. The car is in Melbourne and any questions can be directed to me.

Asking price: $70,000 - Serious buyers only.

Forum rules state a price must be posted.

Also interior, engine bay, speedo, out in the open pics would be a good start for something that is of this calibre.

All things which will help you sell it :yes:

Hi Gabriel,

So sorry to hear about the loss of your brother.

I too have lost a son - as my other son here on SAU has lost his brother.

It appears it's a non-V-Spec. But all the same, I'd ask an importer like Iron Chef to check over the paperwork so he can put it up on his website for you and advise a proper price. Maybe someone in VIC who's also reputable.

Here on SAU you need to furnish a set price or a minimum price pls?

Sorry for being a Nuff. How do I edit my post?

Just put up your price now in a different colour and larger font size now Gabriel + More Pics and car details if poss.

Only Admins and Execs can edit posts after several minutes have elapsed I'm afraid.

Thanks Blitz,

A couple of corrections.

1. Odometer reads 7249 kms (not 7429)

2. First sentence - this car (not care)

3. Sixth sentence - my brother (not by brother)

4. A nominal price of $70,000 is being asked but genuine offers will be considered. This is not a fire sale nor an opportunity to pick up an everyday driving car with low kms at a cheap price. This is a car for a genuine collector or for concourse. It will be retained by my brother's adult sons if not purchased by a passionate GTR enthusiast.

A person that will need to spend $70,000 to purchase this will undoubtedly like to see a considerable amount of photo's.

There was a grade 4.5 Nismo 400R which sold through Japanese auction for $65,000 landed and complied. Considering a scarce amount were made, this is arguably the most sought after R33 model there is (even more so than an N1). Thus, regarding an asking price of 70k + for this....can it be insured for such an amount like the 400r would be able to, considering it's a base model?

I think if you get 40k you have done well.

It's a silver non Vspec.

I put a bid in for an N1 with 40kms 4.5B in Japan recently which sold for 35k.

I would prefer thay to this as I'm sure others will also.

I am genuinely interested in the car but not for anywhere near that price mate.

Gabriel, thanks for confirming the price - Your first post has been updated accordingly

As a few other members have pointed out to avoid confusion, Nissan never brought R33 GTR's into the country, so while genuine low km's certainly qualify this car as a standout collector car, it is still an import.

That said, you are entitled to ask whatever price you like.

Cheers.

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
