Still for sale

Bump. No interest?

Headlights sold. Steering wheel still available. Also discovered that I have some factory 440cc GTR injectors and a factory 180km/h GTR instrument cluster available. I'll put up pictures and list a price if anyone is interested.

And here I was thinking it was one of a kind! Should I lower the price because it's not as unique?

Still for sale. I will miss it, but it's better for someone to enjoy it than it be parked in a shed for the next 3 years.

My bad. I forgot to add that engine pic! Engine finished with red crackle paint, and polished "twin turbo" pipe, which has also had a baffle welded into it to reduce turbo shuffle and increase response (read gtr.co.uk for more details)

As the title says, I have for sale: Pair of headlights off series 1 R33 GT-R. Good condition, no clouding, include spacers. Removed due to upgrading to xenons. $100 Series 1 R33 GT-R airbag wheel. Airbag included, SRS computer not included. Selling due to upgrade to later series model. $100

I'm putting up my 1995 R33 GT-R (non Vspec) for sale due to an impending move overseas for 2-3 years. I've only recently rebuilt the engine and had it tuned. Last time I relocated OS I stored the car for 3 years, and I'm not that keen to do it again hence putting it up for sale, but if nobody is interested then it just goes back into the shed to gather some more dust. Some more details: Black, built 1995, imported into Aus in 2000 (I'm the 2nd owner here) Purchased by me, essentially stock in 2003 Mods since then: Forged engine rebuild, over $40k spent, including CP pistons, Eagle rods, custom CR 9.0:1, head machined, port matched and oil control mods done including new oil drain, tomei restrictor and mines-type baffles, Hi-octane baffled sump and catch can/washer bottle combo. Nitto oil pump, Tomei 260/9.15 cams and gears. Garrett 2860R-9 turbos, with factory exhaust manifolds port-matched and then manifolds, turbine housings, HKS dump pipes and front pipes (ie all exhaust from block to cat) HPC coated. SARD 700cc injectors and in-tank pump, Splitfire coils, HKS Twinpower ignition amp, upgraded earth wiring. New oil cooler with remote filter, upgraded radiator (both PWR), plasmaman intercooler. Exedy twin plate clutch Custom hi-flow exhaust 3.5in diameter includes metal low-density cat, varex rear muffler (quiet for daily use, nice sound and good flow when you want it) Buddy club racing spec coilovers, Whiteline handling kit bushes, camber adjusters and swaybars front and rear Stoptech front rotors, ferodo pads, ADR approved braided lines, master cylinder brace Gram lights 57pro wheels and Federal tyres, hardly used Nismo 320km/h dash, 128000kmm (I don't know how genuine this is, sorry, but it's a Jap import!!) Variable attessa controller Flocked dash (same finish as rally cars, I did this to lift the interior ambience a bit and cut down on glare when driving in sunny conditions, but can also supply a dash with original finish) Cosmetic features upgraded to 1998 series 3 with new factory lip ($1250 new from Just Jap), factory xenon lights ($2500), bumper vents, later type steering wheel, clear front and side indicators Multipoint alarm and self-monitored tracking system installed Car tuned by Jim at Croydon in April 2009, running 340AWKW. Apparently it made up to 360AWKW on pump fuel but the 340 was "safer" I have receipts for pretty much everything done to it. The car is always garaged, has had 2 oil changes with Motul 300V chrono ($200per oil change!) in the 7000km since the engine rebuild, along with Motul RBF600 brake fluid changed recently. I'm sure there are plenty of things I'm forgetting, so if there's a detail you're interested in, just ask. I'm asking $30000 for the car. I know you can find plenty of R33 GT-R's cheaper than this, but I know first hand what it costs to build one properly, and therefore what they're worth. Everyone who has worked on this car, including Croydons and Heasman's suspension have said that it's in great condition, and they would know better than me. I'd consider reasonable offers close to the asking price, but there's no need to offer me the 20000 that you can buy some other GT-R for, because I would prefer to mothball the car or ship it to England to use myself rather than give it away. However, if someone is really after a car that I have tried to build properly, get in touch via PM or phone 0419 448 212 (car is in Sydney)

If what you're asking is "can I fit a later series wheel to an S1 R33 GT-R?" then the answer is yes. The S1 wheel (single airbag model) has the airbag computer behind the airbag, in the steering wheel. This computer needs to be removed from the S1 wheel and attached to the S2/S3 wheel, after which the wheel will go on the car and the airbag will plug in. The airbag light will not be on, which seems to indicate that the system is working OK, but the only way to know for sure is to crash the car or trigger the sensor. I'm not ready to do this yet, so I can't guarantee you that the airbag "works". You will also need to fiddle with the horn wires a little, but it's a piece of cake. The dash clusters (with the dials in them) are the same between models, no reason to change. If you want to fit a twin-airbag dash to a single-airbag car, it can be done, but there is a LOT of work involved. Some guy in Germany did it and wrote it up on GTROC.co.uk, but it's quite involved - you need to buy a new computer, the airbags, dash, under-dash bracing, etc etc the list goes on.

I have a set of R33 GTR headlights just sitting in the garage that I would sell if you wanted them. PM me if interested. Only taken off because I replaced them with S3 Xenons (ie good condition for age).

Thanks. Stock auto apart from Remus exhaust (sounds tough) and upgraded audio. It is the daily, after all, and the missus drives it more than I do.
