Hi Guys

My pride and joy is up for sale. If you only want the best, then look no further.

The car was imported by myself and complied by Sydney Compliance Centre. It was registered last year in April.

The car came in COMPLETELY STOCK, it looked just like it came out of the factory lines. The mods have all been done by myself and the car has been kept in pristine condition since I have owned it. Services are done every 5K with Mobil 1 oil + oil filter changes every time. Spark plugs changed at 10K intervals also. It had a genuine 44K on the odometer when it came in, now it has 66K.

Before I list the mods, this car also came with the GTR Vspec diff as a factory limited edition option! (it has the 'SLIP' and 'A-LSD' lights on the tacho) Very few GTST's recieved this out of factory. It has rego till April 2005.

With regards to the mods, here is a list:

*HI-FLOWED turbo (bigger steel wheels, ported pipes. capable of running 20psi+)This turbo was hi-flowed by Pulse turbocharging (similar hi-flow work like GCG)

*17 inch GT-N RAYS wheels with 70%+ treads (the RAYS wheels look brand new! to buy new, its over $3K+ just for rims)

*3" Turbo-back stainless steel exhaust + 3" hi-flow cat (custom job done by Hi-Tech mufflers, and it sounds awesome!)

*HKS Pod filter

*Hybrid front mount 600x300x76 intercooler

*HKS Hipermax II adjustable suspension(almost new! $3900K to buy newis cheapest I've seen)

*4 X 6.5inch Kenwood spilts and JVC MP3 tuner

*QuikTrak Alarm

*EL white dials which light up blue

*Apexi 60mm EL white boost guage (lights up blue and matches the speedo console)

*Nismo strut brace at front, factory rear strut brace

The car has never been boosted over 11psi, as it needs PFC or can try with SAFC to tune, since timing gets retarded if asking for more boost. This was assessed @ unigroup engineering and the car was dyno'ed there also. The car pulled out 201rwkw@11psi! (I have sheet)

When we ran 15psi boost, the total power dropped to 192rwkw@wheels bcoz of ECU retarding the timing. If you only want a mild-mid setup, then no more work is needed on the car, as it runs perfect and without any probs WHATSOEVER! if you want to get the potential out of the car, then PFC would be best. The turbo hasnt been doing any hard work, as it can handle much more boost!

This car is absolutely immaculate and in A1 condition throughout, it is therefore priced ACCORDINGLY. If you add up all the expensive mods on the car, you'll find you are getting a bargain, as you can pickup most standard series 2 for around $22-23K and then spend about $10k on top MINIMUM to get to these mods currently on the car. It is a regretful sale, but I am starting a business and I'll be needing the funds.

The price is $26900. Genuine interest only please!

cheers,

Michael

hey dude

thanks!

actually this car got its cat put in just a little while before i got the contact for the CATCO cats. it was done when the car was getting complied in April '03. i worked at the compliance place, and they never put the 3" cats on GTSTs and other cars, just GTRs, but of course i was an exception :P

the cats they used to buy were Carsound back in the old scheme, as they were cheaper, so that is whats on my car.

now they use the catco cats under the new scheme, they are more expensive, but they always pass emissions (they need to test emissions under new scheme before passing the car) and are a better design for maximum flow anyways :)

i believe the car is sold? (that right michael?) not surprisingly, i think it was the first person to see it, bought it :D You can just tell from the pics and what's been done to it.

is a beaut of a car :D

Yes it has been sold

When i first saw the pics it was like wow, then i went to take a look at it personally and i have to say WOW

I have spent all my savings on this car but im happy with the purchase.

I have to thank michael for keeping this car in such a excellent condition.

Yes the car is SOLD now. Thanks to all you guys who have commented on it, appreciate it a lot!

I am very sad to see it go, i couldnt believe the car is driving away, and im not in it. I wish Pheap (DVS-80R) all the luck in the world with it. it should be an even bigger beast soon, as he's planning to make some nice performance changes on it.

The wheels, suspension and turbo are all for sale, as they have been taken out(except for turbo, should be out in a few days).

cheers,

Michael

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
