96 S2 R33 Gts25t Kr4 Silver,manual, 105,389km, Hail Damaged, Suit Track Car, Part Out Etc


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I have a 1996 KR4 silver R33 Gtst which has been written off in the past due to hail damage. It was since re registered in Victoria by the previous owner. I then bought it to use as a track car but plans have changed due to a change of circumstances.

It would probably be worth more to part out but I don't really have the motivation or engine crane etc to do this.

These photos were taken with the car dirty and at it's worst, I don't want to hide anything from potential buyers. My cat has been walking on it as well as she lives in the shed, but she hasn't been allowed in the interior.

Anyone is welcome to come and perform a compression test and test drive the car in the driveway (rural property) It is unregistered though so I wouldn't be able to let someone take it on the road without a trade plate.

Details:

1996 Series 2 Gts25t

105,xxx kms

Complied

Economic write off against VINs

*Comes without front seats or front brake calipers, may put s14 calipers on though for ease of transportation*

Good points/mods

Motor runs well, nice and quiet, drove it back from Victoria, didn't miss a beat.
Gearbox is great, goes into gears easily, no syncro issues.
Exedy single plate clutch
Splitfire coilpacks
Custom front mount intercooler painted black and stainless piping
Custom turbo back exhaust
Advan tri spoke 17" wheels (ordinary offsets)
Nismo front strut brace
Master cylinder stopper (cheap brand but does the job)

GKtech ABS delete kit fitted (all factory brake lines in the boot along with ABS module)

Schroth tow strap

Most bushes look to have been replaced with Whiteline yellow urethane type

Alpine head unit, rear speakers and amp

Just did a service (timing belt was still original) which included the following
Brand new gates water pump fitted 0km ago
Brand new gates timing belt fitted 0km ago
Brand new japanese idler and tensioner pulleys fitted 0km ago
Brand new genuine rocker cover seals fitted 0km ago
Brand new genuine nissan crank and cam seals fitted 0km ago
Freshly rebuilt brake master cylinder
Brand new genuine nissan pcv hose
Brand new leather gear and hand brake boots with black stitch

Pictures shown of old seals, old rocker cover gaskets, old timing belt and tensioner, idler etc. I do have photos on my phone somewhere of when I was in the process of fitting the new water pump, idlers, seals, belt etc which I will try and upload later.

Bad points

Hail damaged body + paint is a bit ordinary in spots
Pushed out dint in rear right quarter where someone had kicked it
Guards flared roughly with jack handle and have light surface rust where the paint has flaked off
SkylinesAustralia stenciled across bonnet by previous owner
Boot leaks water in somewhere, boot floor has a bit of light surface rust from where water has been sitting

Temp gauge in cluster doesn't work accurately, have swapped with a GTR cluster I had sitting around to test engine temps and it read within normal range

Rear brake pads are low but still work

Dash has a few marks where double sided tape has been on there by the looks of it and also the radio surround, cluster surround plastic trim has some damage as in pics

**Comes without front seats, or front brake calipers or lines although I have a pair of s14 turbo front calipers and rotors I may fit just to make it easier for people to move without relying only on handbrake.**

These can be left on/in the car for someone to drive around driveway and check engine/ gearbox for themselves/ drivers seat can be left in to load the car onto a trailer if required.

Price: Asking $3000 although I am negotiable, don't hesitate to throw me an offer if you think this is unreasonable or too high.

Price drop!!

$2500 byo battery.

I found some pics of when I was doing the timing belt kit, water pump and seals. No shots of the rocker cover gaskets or cam seals but they were done at the same time and I do have receipts for the parts.

The first time I did the crank seal I used a non genuine seal and it leaked so I have replaced it with a genuine Nissan seal which has fixed the problem. The engine has no leaks whatsoever now.

    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
    • Does the scanner do all the CUs in the car, or only the ECU?
    • @666DAN sorry to bring you and old thread.     I've got my de+t done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.    Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd when selected . But nothing when in  drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic. I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Do ya have any ideas?     Cheers man
    • Well I recently changed my rear axles and was thinking if I bumped anything, I have been driving the car for a while now though... But it has been raining today so everything is wet under the wheel arches. Brakes feel fine and can't hear any of the metal screamers, I had a squeak coming from one of the handbrake drums but that seems to have gone away a while ago. I was going down a hill when it lit up and I did feel the abs bite for a second and question why it did it?
    • Correct. Um. I dunno. I haven't cared enough about the way that the NA cars work to know for sure. But..... The 33/34 turbo manual cars have an electronic speed sensor in the gearbox that outputs a +/- (ie, sawtooth AC) voltage signal. That is connected to the speedo. The speedo then outputs a 0-5v square wave (ie, PWM) signal that the ECU (and any other CU on the bus) sees. The speed sensor is NOT directly connected to the ECU. So here's the problem. Your new ECU expects to see the PWM signal, but must somehow be getting a direct signal from the diff speed sensor. Which would suggest that the wiring of the NA car is not the same as the turbo cars. I think you will need to spend some time with (hopefully the wiring diagram for the car) and a multimeter to see what is connected to what. Then, presuming I am correct**, you would then want to separate the ECU speed signal input from the rest of the car's wiring, and probably either buy a speed signal converter, or build one using an arduino (or similar). That would take in the speed sensor signal and output a scaled (and suitably rearranged) signal for the ECU. ** We shouldn't presume that I am correct here, because there might be something else crazy going on. I don't think you could convert the speedo to be fed from the gearbox sensor, because the pulse rate from that sensor is probably different to the diff sensor and then the speedo would read wrongly. And this also wouldn't fix the ECU's problem either, because the ECU doesn't want to see the gearbox signal direct either (assuming that they are all on the same wiring, for some odd NA related reason, see above caveat!) Does this help? Probably not. Can you make it work? Almost certainly. With the above work. You should buy a handheld oscilloscope from Aliexpress so that you can view these signals directly. Connect up the probes and drive the car. Show photos of the screen when drving at known speeds and connected to different places, and we'll see what we can learn about it.
