Well this time I was hit by an uninsured 4WD (joy). I've had way too much bad luck with this car, and I really can't be bothered stuffing around fixing it again, so it's time to take the money and move on to something cheap and practical like an ex-taxi on LPG :throwup:. Lesson to all those on 3rd party...

1993 R33 GTS25t Coupe

Factory Blue/Green pearl

5sp Manual

92k km

3" catback

Apexi springs

Series 2 wing

GTR side skirts

Blitz pod filter

pretty stock otherwise

HD clutch

Reg til Feb 2005. Drives very well and cleanly, good condition for 11 year old car.

Front drivers side impact, will need drivers Front Guard, bonnet, front bar, drivers headlight and a bit of straightening. Engine untouched and starts fine, but radiator leaked so can't drive far (I'm pretty sure the radiator is fine though, I think the leak came from either the fluid bottle which was broken or a loose hose).

Serviced the DAY before accident and was running beautifully - oil/spark plugs/brakes/new battery, timing belt done @ 84k, HD clutch @ 89k, so once repaired it will be a great drive.

Looking for $10.5k or so, stereo not included. If you are interested in a bit of a fixer upper, come have a look and then we can talk the sphincter of the universe. Car is sitting in front of my house in East Brighton, Melbourne, Vic. I guess this would especially suit someone who was gonna do stuff like custom stereo, respray, front bar etc, save a few grand on the stuff u'd be chucking anyway.

I'm not in the mood for shit kickers so if you are REALLY interested then PM me. May also consider trades for something decent and cheap to run and insure + cash.

-Max (retiring from Skyline ownership - at least in the interim :) )

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
