FOR SALE :

1998 R33 GTR VSPEC series 3 

KN6 (Dark grey/purple/blue pearl )

88,000kms

FIRM $28,000

Hello i have come to the sad conclusion that it is time to sell my Gtr . I have a few debts and Can no longer Afford to keep it . 

This is a fine example of a genuinely original S3 GTR . I searched a long time for a series 3 and came across this fresh from Japan . I am the first owner in Australia and it was complied and bought from NAGOYA MOTORS in May 2011 . 

1998 VSPEC which has ATESSA-ETS PRO unlike the standard Gtr r33 which have the non pro version , also this s3 has updated 4WD computers compared to s1/2 . The ABS module is also S3 only with 4 channel independent wheel abs (r34 Gtr) . A-LSD (active LSD) and few other mechanical differences I've seen across a few models .

The car is completely stock! I mean down to a Nissan tape player and no mods under the hood at all , the car remains as it was from the show room floor and the condition is also like new! 

I have lucky to fall upon an exhaust which is amazing quality , I only wanted to source the best parts which is why i went with FUJITSUBO GEIKEN. 

FGK Titanium (TUNED LENGTH) front pipe , it's a beautiful front pipe that has equally tuned length from both turbos , it wraps around the bell housing towards drivers side and joins back to the cat and sits tight on body.

FGK Titanium Catalytic Converter 80mm in/out , flat style for ride height . 

FGK Titanium Twin 60mm cat back . Sits tight and looks amazing underneath car , joins into a large ovel muffler and Still remains twin inside the body of muffler to a single 4" tip .

The car has been my pride and joy and I have done nothing but look after her . Since I've purchased the car I have had ZERO mechanical issues at . It seriously is like driving it new. 

I have taken it to WSID for a run down the 1/4 and got a time of 12.53 @ 178km/h . Which is amazing for factory trim . 

The boost is running 0.9bar and fitted with a xtreme HD ORGANIC clutch .

Hi Mate, is this car still for sale - including the titanium exhaust system? I might have a buyer liner down here in Victoria. Just need to get him to have a good look over the car.

Cheers.

    • Yes to both! Yes to standard ECU and tune, but exhaust is aftermarket. Unsure on brand. Actually have it sitting in at my desk haha! I have to set it up on my laptop but this is a great next step, will do. So I generally try to shift before 4.5K RPM most times. I largely don't do a lot of high-rev driving, but I will take it up to red 1-2x a week max, as I know the occasional "Italian tune-up" is good for these cars.  Oh wow, is this way better than what I'm getting. Does this mean there's a good chance I have an issue?   Thanks for all the info so far guys.
    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
