1995 R33 GTR Midnight Purple

Racepace forged and blueprinted engine with over 300kw at the wheels, GTSS Turbos, N1 Oil and water pumps etc...

Racepace speced up transfer case

Racepace modified Tien RA Suspension

Racepace modified Cusco Camber/Castor bits

Alcon 6pot 365mm Brakes

Genuine Series 3 Xenon headilghts

Genuine Series 3 Front lip colour coded, yes real, plasic, not fibreglass, worth $1300 new.... ouch.

R34 GTR Rims

And all the other bits and peices that go with it to support, have plenty of receipts for all the work done, probably more than the asking price but don't want to add them up.

I've owned it for over 5 years now and since starting my new job i just don't drive it enough, it's a shame to have it just sitting there.

If you want a fast street car, that can drive to the track, run faster laps than pretty much every car at the track days, then drive home, this is the kind of car you want. It has done 1.48's at Philip island, 1.22's at Sandown etc... and still has another couple of seconds in it easy, if not more.

It's piss easy to build a fast street car, but to build a fast reliable track car takes a fair bit of money and effort, and this is what you are getting with this car. You will not be able to drive this car to it's limits on the street.

I'm not super keen on selling it, but if the right offer comes along i will let it go to a good home.

Most people in the Vic club know me and my car and can back up what i've said.

Happy to discuss the car and it's history to any serious buyer. Anything i tell you i'm sure can be confirmed by Ben @ Racepace. Very well looked after car.

Price: $40,000

Contact: Andrew on 0413 278 777

I just drove this car and I have to tell you, coming from an owner of a 320AWKW R32 GTR, this car is one of the best cars I have ever driven. Nothing short of CLASS on all levels. Would have to be the best bargain at $40K and should be more like $50K!!

Good Luck with Sale mate if I dont take it off your hands:)

Wow, you're selling Ferni??! That's a shame mate, I was just thinking to myself I hadn't seen you in a while and was wondering if you were still around.

This is a top car people, and a bargain at this price!

Yeah - I just don't drive it enough these days since i changed jobs and have less time. I either need to drive it or sell it, no point letting it sit there undriven. I've done <1,000ks in the last 12 months, very sad.

I haven't put it on carsales or anything yet, I should really do that

      Yes, but no. You need to keep the mating surfaces bare (ie the flat faces where the caliper and upright pads touch the dogbone) and also the internal threads will remain bare (unless there are no internal threads - do they use nuts on all the bolts?). So you can slow down obvious external corrosion, but not all of it. Anodising would be required to provide decent protection to the alloy, but I'm not actually sure if you should anodise something that is all about the strength. Anodising does reduce strength significantly. Like, up to 50% on some alloys for high thickness coating.

      'Sgot nothing to do with them being Japanese. The climate in the north of Japan has similarities to the UK - the cars are made in the knowledge that they have snow and salt, and they rot there. Cars made in the US rot like buggery in the US. British cars have always rotted regardless of the weather. They will rot indoors in a climate controlled bubble! The brackets are not unsafe yet, but they will get that way. They may well corrode where the bolt threads are in contact and the bolts could just jump out without warning.

      So unsafe would you say now?   little bit of has come off, guess road salt is a nightmare for Japanese car. Mx5 here have a well known issue or rotting

      Dissimilar metal corrosion. Aluminium is less noble than steel/iron, and will corrode preferentially when in contact with it and a conductive solution (ie, wet road salt). Tends to suggest that those brackets should be made in steel for a shitty climate like the UK.
