as blitz said i wouldnt rec. a nrma inspection, a mechanic friend would in most cases check it over better than nrma, who dont even do a compression test and still charge 220! the only good thing is that whatever they do say is ok they give a warranty on so say if a ball joint is stuffed and they said it was ok, they will pay for it within i think 3 months.

defintely get at least a compression test done by someone if u cant do it yourself... its a bit time consuming on the gtst so unless u are really sure about what to do just get someone to do it.. should take an hour.

take a good look under the car too.

All R33 GTS25-T coupes are M SPECS.. Regardless of Series 1 or Series 2..

Just make sure its ready for rego. Get all the import approval and documentation. Make sure its complied.

You can get Stock, very clean low KM series 2 GTSTs from Northshore prestige starting at 22 with 1 years rego.

I dont like the idea of buying a import with no rego personally.

I got my car from Northshore Prestige. I would definitely reccomend the guys for great service and fking clean cars. When I picked up my car, they had a lovely white R33 with a factory aero kit on it for mid 20s. I would certainly consider checking these guys out if I were you. Their cars are about 10000 times better than the ones you find on Parramatta road!

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
