Anyone Know Of Any 4 Door 33 Gtr's In Oz


Recommended Posts

Never heard of Autech, eh?

HPI tested one a few years back- Martin Donnon reckoned you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference in most cases.

Not exactly common though.

No such thing as an official 4 door GTR. Any that are labeled as such are AWD conversions with GTR parts. Nothing more nothing less.

Anyone who says anything else is ill-informed.

Incorrect.

LOL.you mean...wagon....stagea...rs260

I like your way of thinking! :rolleyes:

Autech is kinda like Nismo - they're a factory-certified tuner (just like AMG, HSV, FPV/Tickford, etc.) who do special work for the Nissan factory, anything from the (very rare, but very real) 4-door R33 GT-Rs, to the 260RS Stagea (basically a series 1 RS-Four or series 2 RS-Four S Stagea with extra body strengthening and R33 GT-R running gear), through to modifications for people with disabilities who need wheelchair access to their cars, etc.

I do not if it is the same one, but I know the guy who bought the first one in approx 4 years ago under the compliance rules. It was a write off in japan and came over needing a full front and new roof after it had hit a pole.

Glad we now have SEVS.

There was a copy recently for sale on carsales. It was built by skyline imports and had the pumped rear guards and doors fitted and RB26 running gear. It was originally a non turbo sedan. You can or use to be able to buy the panels from nissan

Yeah I knew of 2 for sale at the same time a while ago, both white. The one that was a write off was instantly recognisable as it had a sunroof...no GTR has a sunroof, I already had a 33 GTR at the time and they tried ti swear it was real and no accident history.

The 4 door R33 GTR's still command a high price in Japan due to their rarity, and the fact they are all late models. Superb examples go as high as 4million yen.

Theres a rb26 conversion in a 4 door gts4 in NSW too, white...the guys was on here a few years ago and came along to a few events...

I'd be surprised if one of the real autechs were here but I guess you never know.

As for importing them, pretty sure it is still legal.....once a chasis and motor have been approved through SEVS you can bring in different combos....so 33 sedan with an rb26 should be legal, as long as the car and engine are standard
