SOLD

My rather sad looking R33 is now for sale. It is currently being held by my insurance company, and they have given me 3 weeks to decide whether I want to buy it back or not.

I will not separate for parts - the buyer takes all.

Details:

- Silver

- ~108,000km

- S1

- Stock ECU

- R34 side mount intercooler

- 3" turbo back exhaust (split front + hiflow cat from batmbl group buy)

- Stock airbox

- Flashpoint alarm with two remotes

Stuff I know is damaged:

- Front bar toast, sideskirts, bonnet, roof, some other panels toward front of car

- Front right wheel is up against it's rear guard, so something's bent in there

- Lots of panels are scratched but some may come out

- Airbag went off

- Middle rear vision

- Some damage under the car but I didn't get under it so I don't know how bad

- Probably more stuff that I don't recall right now

Stuff that is (most likely) still good:

- Engine - it starts and sounds fine

- Interior stuff like trim, seats

- Windows, none of them broken, didn't notice any cracks

- Maybe exhaust

- R34 wheels, rears are still good, dunno if fronts were damaged in the impact

- Brand new Toyo T1R's on the rears, only done ~500km

- Probably heaps more stuff I don't recall

Anyway that's a start, if you have questions regarding whether a part of the car is damaged or not I'll try my best. Note I didn't update the above after adding pics so please see for yourself.

Asking price now $4000, OR $3250 not including R34 SMIC or exhaust (which needs repair anyway). SOLD

Buyer to have the car towed from Milperra, and I would have to be able to come around to remove the SMIC+exhaust.

Call Andrew (after midday) on 0422 951 643 or PM.

Have you taken any pics yet?

I was waiting for some interest. Should have got some pics while the car was local but I hadn't considered selling it.

Bit of a drive now, but if you're interested then I'll go get some pics. If Milperra isn't far for you, you're welcome to come and check it out when I go.

how much for hi flo cat?

Sorry not willing to separate at this stage, don't have time to pull it apart and sell everything. Maybe you can buy it from whoever buys the wreck.

pics plz.? roof kinked..? rails bent?

I'll get out there ASAP and get pics. Now that I know there is interest then it's worth my bother to drive there :(

Do you have the lower control arms? if so are the driver's side front & rear lower control arm in good condition?

if so interested in selling it? if so could you pm me or email me on [email protected]

Sorry I don't even know what control arms are, and I am not separating I am selling the car whole.

well.. looks like your insurace company f*ked u over by using a fork to move it around. i would taken it if the rails hadn't been damaged by the fork.. all i can offer is ..!! i will pm u. haha

are you kidding? that forklift is huge and its lifting it by the rails. the pressure would be distributed all over the rails and it'd be sweet! far more likely to have damage under a car from someone changing a tyre, putting all the pressure into one spot

In case anyone wants to know... rail was bent by the accident. The car's still straight.

Price drop to $4500 as it seems this rail damage drops the value a lot... still worth heaps more than that for parts!

    • 49719 is the cooler loop. Right at the front, LHS of that diagram. Return line from rack (LP side) goes to cooler loop on RHS front of car, then back under engine and returns to bottom of tank. 49717M is feed from tank to pump. HP line out of pump is thick rubber, followed by the hard line that runs down to crossmember and runs in parallel (but opposite flow direction) to the LP return line. Nothing goes anywhere near the firewall or interior of car. The closest they get to that is the connections on the rack.
    • Thanks, plan is to drain all fluid tomorrow and do smoke test to find out the leak.   Appreciate your help and want to understand how the system work. So cooling is achieved by the long loop not any rad? The diagram seems to suggest it connects to somewhere inside the cabin and I thought that is a cooler inside firewall. If you look at the diagram it seems to show it connects to something inside firewall. I tried chasing it but not easy unless I take loads off   i am confident pump is good as fluid goes in and it gets soft( steering) but as soon as I turn engine off , loads of bubble come to surface and overflow. When engine is on , fluid level is below minimum but when off it shoots off and thinking it is sucking air in. I suspect aluminium pipe may have a crack line or whole   smoke test with no fluid should be a good start and if needed will remove the pump   In addition, the one going under the engine bay is high pressure line and one directly connecting from pump to resorvoir is return/ low pressure?   finally I searched and suggestion is to use dexron 2 but that is discontinued so bought dexron 3 as all research suggest it is compatible and shouldn’t cause any issues/ blow seals. I bought two liter of dexron 3 motul atf
    • Don't worry about. Just don't try to drive hard enough to make boost and you'll be fine.
    • Yes. This has already been said. It is a loop of hardline in front of the radiator. Because.... the pump is on the LHS and the steering rack hydraulic connections are where they always are on a RHD steering rack....on the RHS. The high pressure line goes down under the engine, along the crossmember, like it does on all Skylines. Don't just throw expensive braided hoses/other kits at it. Work out what is wrong and fix that.
    • Still got the afm on the intake, clamps are shut tight, only loose hose is the one that goes from the j pipe towards the IACV, since it's next to impossible to find a factory hose and the barbs are different sizes (I'm still using clamps on this hose to try and help it seal on the iacv side) I've ordered parts to make up the hotside of the intercooler pipes, I'll plumb it in and see what happens in a few days I suppose The turbo's internally gated, can I just unscrew the tension rod to let the gate open?
