Hey Guys,

I am trying to track down a car my husband owned and sold a few years ago.

We live in Wollongong, NSW and sold to a guy in syd.

Originally purchased from AutoStyle in syd for $25k.

Is white and has a bit of engine work, strut brace in back seat and Advanti wheels.

Number plate was originally BEX.59P but pretty sure we sold it as JETR33 or similar.

Sold for $16 as we couldnt afford it at the time - just trying to find the car again - my husband misses it so much.

If anyone has any info on this car please let me know!

Also, if you have any ideas on how to track down a vehicle through number plate or vin i would greatly appreciate it, Thanks!

*Sorry, photo of the engine was too large so wouldnt let me load :(

I think they may be Enkie rims and it's an R32. If you recall the name of the person you sold it to, you can call your local roads authority and confirm if he/she is or isnt still the registered owner, they wont outright tell you who owns it tho.

Best of luck with the hunt

You are so right, i dont know why i typed JetR33... he had 2 R33s before this car. Sorry.

I have done a check and the report comes up a little confusing as it says:

  • The registration is cancelled.
  • The registration expired on 07/08/2011.

But then says:

22-Jun-2009 to 9-Oct-2011 Pensioner 10-Oct-2011 to present Private

Also states it was not a write off etc

We sold it in 2009.

I happened to find a receipt with the buyers name who i have tried contacting through facebook so hopefully i get a lead.

God i wish my wife was as cool as you

I missed my old GTR too and sometime i talk about looking for it and purchase it again. Owning GTR is personal, another GTR is not the same :(.

Good luck.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
