A daily or toy?

I've been contemplating moving mine on. It's not really suitable for a daily unless you're a sadist. It is, however, the perfect base for a weekender. It does have a few issues, however. It had a tree fall on it so some dings on the roof, bonnet and front left guard. It also needs new bearings somewhere (not sure if alternator, PS pump or something else) and a couple of other little bits and pieces. Otherwise it's very solid and quite stout with 235rwkw (I have removed the front prop shaft) now and capacity in turbo, injectors etc for 300+. All it needs is a new FMIC.

I would want the upper end of your budget, however. I've pumped nearly $10k into recently (turbo, injectors, clutch, fuel pump, coilpacks, big brakes, wheels and tyres) so would want to recover this.

Sound like something you might be interested in?

Oh, it's yellow, too.

I'm not set on selling it, but it is something I'm considering. I have no need to sell, but my want for another Datto 1600 is extreme and I don't think I can convince the missus to let me own three cars and two motorbikes. Something has to go first.

I have been thinking of selling mine but am located in Sydney. Auto s2 c34 with dayz options. Going cheap, the only thing it needs is rust in doors fixed going for $7k

Recently spent over 6k on it, replaced all four rotors and pads, front drive shafts, rebuilt auto trans, split fire coils packs, coil over suspension all round, new alpine head unit, 3 inch exhaust from turbo back and has been serviced every 5,000 km.

      Original window sticker?

      By Celticsfan03 · Posted

      Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
