Hey guys,

After a couple of years of playing with bikes I'm finally chasing a car again. I use to have a Black S1 R33 GTS-T and would like something similar.

Budget is $10,000 max for purchase, obviously the price will be in accordance with condition and mods.

I'm after ones within 500km of Brisbane, I'm not transporting or traveling further than that.

Also, no hurry here, took me 4 months to find the right one last time for the right price, so I'm willing to wait.

Good stuff:

Good condition Paint (no paint pealing/off, only minor scratches, I understand small stone chips etc..)

Colours - Black > White == Silver (would consider others, except for red/maroon)

RWC (that includes, all the requirements of such; good tread, brakes etc..)

Light Weight Rims (prefer 17s personally)

Suspension upgrades (doesn't have to be adjustable, just well thought out and GC)

FMIC (no illegal cutting of front bar, even upgraded sidemount would be good)

Quality POD filter with bracket

Turbo back exhaust (cat-back would be fine)

Turbo rebuilt/hi-flow/upgrade

ECU (power-fc mega plus, would even consider breaking budget a little for it)

Has had regular services (if you do it, you should be able to tell me what oil type and grade you use and how often)

Rebuilt engine (don't care if it's stock or crazy)

If no rebuild under 160,000km on engine

Dark Tint

Bad stuff:

Maroon paint (I hates it)

3 spoke rims (if must, can replace)

Missing engine cover (but I can get another, I know)

Over 200,000km

Overly stiff suspension

Dodgy paint work

Poorly repaired accident damage

HICAS issues (that light should not be on)

Heating issues

Electrical issues

DE to DET conversions

Auto to Manual conversions

Peeling Tint

Cheap crappy aftermarket parts (aftermarket is fine, but no ebay special turbos)

So show me what you have, read above first and you'll have an idea to my reaction.

I don't need rego on it, only the RWC. I can deal with the rego.

It's not all set in stone, if you have god awful paint, but are willing to adjust (2k for a new paint job or whatever) I can accommodate.

I'd just prefer what I want without the effort, as do we all.

I've owned a 33 before, so I know what to look for, and I don't mind cleaning up some issues (last car got major service, new wheel bearings, did new suspension myself etc...).

Let me know what you have, post links here, or send me a PM.

Let your baby come to a loving home to a devoted owner =) It would be a smooth sale, my mechanic would check the car, report to me and the sale would go through as fast as I could hand you the money.

Also, I may consider a 94+ black top 180sx or Black S14a.

Cheers,

Ben

    • LOL.... fk...   there goes 25K to make 200kW
    • For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...
    • I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it. 
    • MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
