Hey guys

SOLD SOLD SOLD! CONGRATS TO THE NEW OWNER

Price Drop!

I have a rare 1997 Series III R33 GTR VSpec for sale in Sonic Silver (colour only available for series 3). 2nd owner in Australia and the car is in immaculate and near standard condition. The odometer reads 63000ish kms and the condition suggest that it is consistent with the km’s. I am after $36000 ONO for it. Rego till March 08. no low ball offers or time wasters please. But reasonable offers will be considered :D Car is located in Newcastle.

I bought the car in stock standard condition. All the mods on the car I have receipts for and all are brand new. The mods include (all only a few weeks old):

Engine:

-Trust Power Extreme II Cat back exhaust (3 inch)

-3 inch Catco metal cat (5 inch body)

-3 inch Trust front pipe

-Greddy Profec B Spec 2 boost controller

-Apexi panel filter

-Apexi Power FC + HC

Exterior:

-Brand new Rays Engineering Gram Lights 57F Pro. 18 x 10 + 15 with Dunlop Direzza 245/40/18 tyres brand new with over 95% tread left. The rims have absolutley no scratches or any rash on them. Cost me over $4600 for these babies.

-Rays engineering light weight lugs nuts worth $180.

Other:

-Mongoose alarm and immobiliser

-Kenwood Head unit, plays MP3s. But cannot pick up Australian radio

Tuned by Jim on the Dyno at Croydon several weeks ago, made 222.1awkw or 240ish rwkw @ 1bar boost. Air fuel mix was around the 11.7 mark so it is very safe tune as well. Very good result considering i only have an exhaust and a bit more boost :( Can also be run on stock boost too. Dyno sheet available

Everything else on the car is stock standard. Its also got a few factory options from Nissan like the Momo steering wheel, N1 slots, larger from lip, rear fog light (only on series 3) and red stitching interior, Xenon headlights and dual air bags. Interior condition is like new with no rips or scuffs. The front lip has a few scrapes on it but an easy fix.

The car runs very smooth and has no leaks of any kind, no oil burning, no starting/stalling issues, no fuel consumption issues and A/C works perfectly too. I get around 400km’s per tank in the city. It had a major service about 3500kms ago, with new NGK platinum spark plugs, fuel filter, oil filter and Motul engine oil and also gear box oil changed. Also the car has never been raced and it is not thrashed either, always babied and washed weekly! Will make an excellent base for modifying or keeping as is!

Thanks buddy! What car did you have?

well I certainly know Phil is very picky about his car as he bought my 33 GTR vpec (which was then stolen before he could take delivery) so I can imagine he was just as picky when he bought this car. Late model 33s really are just that bit nicer than the early models and this one looks pretty good. I hope you get a good price for it. :)

Thanks guys!

Yea Richard this one is immaculate like the one you had :( I still would of liked yours, then I wouldnt have had to buy the parts myself to fit them!

  • 1 month later...
How often are you in Sydney? ;)

Occasionally! Depends really, but i would say maybe once 1 month and most of the times i dont drive my car unless if its for a dyno or a good reason! :)

    • Has equal chance of cleaning an AFM and f**king an AFM. I think you can work out what happened. When the Hitachi ECU sees the AFM die and goes into the associated limp mode, then it will start and run just fine, because it ignores the AFM and just runs on idle maps that will do what it needs to get it going. But there is no proper load signal, so that's about all it can do. My suggestion? If you don't want to go full aftermaket ECU, then get some R35 GTR AFM cards and some housings to put them in, in the stock location, and Nistune the ECU. Better to do a good upgrade than just replace shitty 40 year old tech with the same 40 year old tech.
    • So my car was recently having trouble starting on initial crank, I would need to feather the gas for it to start up but besides that it would start and run fine. So I clicked the idle air control valve (with throttle body cleaner) and cleaned the MAF sensors (with MAF cleaner). The start up issue was fixed and now the car turns over without the assist of the throttle, but the car is in limp mode and wont rev past 2.5k RPM. From what I understand the IACV would not put the car in limp mode, so I am to believe it is the MAF sensors, but it was running fine before and now I cant get it out of limp mode. I cleaned the MAF made sure the o rings were seated properly. Made sure the cables were plugged in properly, the cables also both read the same voltage. Does anybody know why this is or what could be causing this or how to get it out of limp mode?
    • Ooo I might actually come and bring the kids, however will leave the shit box home and take the daily
    • Thanks. Yeah I realised that there's no way I'd be able to cover the holes with the filler, it would just fall through. Thanks again @GTSBoy!
    • That was the reason I asked. If you were going to be fully bodge spec, then that type of filler is the extreme bodge way to fill a large gap. But seeing as you're going to use glass sheet, I would only use that fibre reinforced filler if there are places that need a "bit more" after you've finished laying in the sheet. Which, ideally, you wouldn't. You might use a blob of it underneath the sheet, if you need to provide some support from under to keep the level of your sheet repair up as high as it needs to be, to minimise the amount of filler you need on top. Even though you're going bodge spec here, using glass instead of metal, the same rules apply wrt not having half inch deep filler on the top of the repair. Thick filler always ends up shitting the bed earlier than thin filler.
