$17,000 Ono Plus Free Black Bar-fridge~!!

Still for sale... Also selling a 74 Mini Panel van which is running a Mk2 Cooper S engine, getting rid of that for $3500, but I doubt anyone here would be interested in that anyways.. :headspin:

Price Dropped to $17,000, Wouldn't mind offers, Trade or otherwise...

Yeah, I didn't get time to Organise myself Last night, So I took some quick photo's after work this afternoon... But anyways, here they are...

Hello Gentlemen... As the title implies, I am selling my R33 GTST. I've owned this car for a year and a half now, and I think it's spoiled me for whatever cars I may drive in the Future. The Handling on this Car is just Spot on, every over car feels like it's going to tip over when I go around a corner fast... Anyways, As of 6 months ago I left my average IT job and went back to Uni to Study Mechanical Engineering. As such, I can't really afford to keep the car anymore, hence the sale... But Anyway, Here's Some Details about the Car... -1993 R33 GTS25T (Series 1 Obviously) -Gunmetal grey in Colour -5 Speed Manual Gearbox -SUNROOF, and the usual Climate control and such -This car was an Early Import, the guy who owned it before me had it for 2 years. -Has done about 115,000KM's at the moment -Has Obviously had it's 100,000KM service, in which I had the Usual belts, Front brake rotors, all pads replaced, and Water Pump replaced -Clutch was also replaced at 100,000KM due to slight slipping (Better to change it then let it die and have to be towed home) Car Also has the Following: -TIEN Coilovers All-round. Not sure which Models, but allow for height adjustment, Dampening and Adjustable Pillow Mounts -Front and Rear Strut Braces -18" ANZ Matrix Wheels in the Shadow Chrome colour -Cat Back 3" Apexi N1 Clone Exhaust. The Exhaust has had the middle muffler chaged to a Hot-Dog style muffler to ensure Legal ground clearence, and has the Big N1 Style muffler at the End. -K&N Panel Filter in Standard Air-Box -Greddy Type S Blow-Off Valve. This BOV is orginally a Plumb Back item, however the return pipe is currectly blocked off and it is venting into the Atmo. It's a Simple 2 minute job to Change this set-up from a Amto to Plumb back -Nismo Short Shifter -Basic Aftermarket Gearknob (Kinda looks like a Momo one) -Pivot Fuel Controller. Enables slight alterations to Fuel mix, which comes in handy with the big exhaust and such. -Starbo Turbo timer -Replaced Leathers on Gearboot and Handbrake -Panasonic CD Player with Kicker splits in the front Doors and Kicker speakers on the parcel shelf. -Remote Central locking with Immobiliser Other Parts not on the Car but Included in sale... -Original 16" Wheels -Smaller Cat back exhaust with Original Rear Muffler (Blows 85Db at Mcloed EPA testing station, TWICE!) -3" Pipe to go from Cat to that smaller pipe that comes from the Turbo -'Racing' Cat Convertor (IE Straight through pipe with bracket to bolt on Cat Heat Shield) -Some Chrome pedals that were taken off because they made the Car unroadworthy -One of those Puched Out drift Car stickers in White Other than that, the Car will be sold with a RWC, and buyer can have the choice of which exhaust he would like on... and of course, Price: I am Asking $17,000 or best offer, and Would consider trade for cheaper car with Cash adjustment (Looking for something Different, but let me know what you're thinking anyway...) My Digital Camera is currently 1) At home, and 2) Charging Batteries, so I'll have pictures up in a few hours... You can contact me on: Phone: 0403 204 260 E-mail: [email protected] MSN: [email protected] Thanks! -Ross

I'm up for it... Funkymonkey are you still organising what everyone is bringing? If so what are we lacking so I know what to bring? Cheers! -Ross

Yeah I'll come down and have a look...

Count me in for a Meet-up. Might be an idea to find somewhere to go though which is a little out of the way, so we all don't go home a collection of little yellow stickers on the windscreen...

I'm another from that area. I'm most usually at my Girlfriends house in Bundoora off plenty road. There's a few Gunmetal R33's around here apparently, my dad always tells me he's seen the same car as mine floating around, etc.

I wouldn't mind helping in putting a map together, or printing them, or helping out in any way I can... Which leads to the question, if someone like myself draws up a map, who can we forward it to to make it an official event and such? Is there a method to getting these things to happen?

Using the CRS Transaxle? Into a VW Beetle or Kombie?

Stupid amounts can be organised... but it was more a curiousity thing as to if you'd actually do something like that! Cheers Anyway!

Apologies for the blatent thread Hi-Jack but... Dr_Drift: can you turn my Mini Panel Van into something like this? http://www.twincamturbo.com/ :burnout: -Ross

In a month to 6 weeks or so I'll be making another blast up to Bairnsdale one night. Actually its a place 20KM's out of Bairnsdale called Paynesvile or something. I have a friend who moved up there... It's kinda funny actually. The only 'performance' car I saw the whole time I was there last was like a VR SS, and an older gentleman seemed genuinly scared when I dropped a BOV on him as I went past. The Paynesvile pub would be an interesting place to park a group of Skyline's out the front of... but thats another story all together. It's a good run down the South Eastern and all the way out to Sale. Speed Limit is 110 the whole way but it seems as though everyone sits on 120 or so. At Night it's a really awesome drive. I'm betting No-one else would really be up for this though -Ross

GiJOr33: Wouldn't rent it to you mate... you can borrow it though I know the guy at Mr Muffler here in Epping, might see if we could scab his, car... lifting... thing, for a few minutes one saturday and change it over then or something... As for the 3" Cat, I dont know... I have a stocker on my car right now, guess worst case scenario we take of my Cat back pipes, throw my cat on your car, and the 3" on mine (So I can use my car in the mean time) or something. I've also got one of those 'Straight thru' Cats (Whick is really just a straight piece of pipe the size of a Cat convertor), but that doesn't really help us here . I dunno, maybe someone else has a spare stock cat and could save us the trouble? I know what it's like to be done for this stuff, so I don't mind helping out one bit. I guess when it comes down to it this is the sort of thing people join car clubs for in the first place... to help like minded people, or something. Cheers

GiJOr33: I have a stock Cat back system if you get super desperate... good for all of 83Db according to McLeod EPA testing station. Offer applies to others in similar situations -Ross

Pred: Regardless of what the Cop said, or whatever the hell he was talking about, I'm pretty sure what is written on the Defective Vehicle report is the part which will hold it's weight in court. After all, The report is what would be shown as evidence, the rest can be thrown down to 'He said, she said' stuff. So yeah, you're right to question the fcuk out of it. Once again I guess it's a case of 'unedumacated' Police officers deciding on the spot what is legal and what is not. In the same instance I got the 'no Shift pattern' the TMU officer had a look under my bonnect, looked directly at my Atmo venting Blow off Valve, and then closed the bonnet and said everything was fine. There's an Elise that parls near our work office's, maybe next time I see it I might have to whip out 'My tool' and check it's ride hieght, just out of curiousity...

Agreed on the Gearshift thing. I had a mate who works at FCSD (Ford Customer Service Devision, Where Compliancing and ADR research and such is done my Ford) take a look at it and he thought it was pretty funny. Ford sell the XR range with an optional MOMO gear knob which, surprise surprise, has no shift pattern on it. Imagine getting a Defect for a car you just rolled out of the showroom! Speaking of which though, I've heard the Lexus IS200 (or 400?) has an option for extra low suspension, which is meant to give it lower than 100mm ground clearance? Wish I knew someone who could straighten that one out for me... Oh and Pred... Exhaust too big? Man that sounds like a bit of a joke. I'm sure Diameter of exhaust piping is insignificant, as long as said exhaust complied with emmissions and noise polution regulations. And if it doesn't... Well, you can't be charged with Murder if the guy lives can you?

I'll go anywhere... Westgate seems fair though... And hopefully this doesn't turn into something that never happens, because I''d be keen to meet you guys, have a chat, take some photo's, etc...

As far as being too low goes, I've had yellow stickers twice for it. Both times they had a 100mm wheel on the end of a stick, and rolled it under the car until it hit the exhaust. Since changing the exhaust to get correct ride height, I now have a 110mm short piece of wood and the end of a larger piece of wood (Handle) and if anyone suggests it may be lower than it should be, Under the car goes 'my tool' . Vicroads have a similar thing as mine except metal (Or atleast at Watsonia they do) for testing as well. If the cop didn't messure it, I'd be very upset. Atleast he didn't put the pod down on the Defect notice though, My last Defect had 'Shift pattern not shown on gearknob' as one of the defectable items. -Ross

Surely, you're not talking about the man paste?

I'd like to throw my name down guys... but I should really get some carpet in the Mini before changing cosmetic stuff on the skyline... It's a damn great offer though!

OK, Throw my name down for the Melbourne buyers group shipping deal Closest I'll be getting to Sydney is Albury... I'm guessing though it'd be the same to ship to albury as it would be to Melbourne though?

Same question as DJ_L3ThAL...

Doesn't owning a Skyline make up for that? And if not, it bloody well should farkin!
