Eoi/for Sale: Midnight Purple R33 Gts-T S1 With Factory Sunroof! (295Rwkw)

[Trozzle]

As the title states.

R33 GTS-T series 1, midnight purple. 173,000km. FACTORY SUNROOF!!

Previous owner suspected engine had been rebuilt at some stage, compression test results back this theory up fairly well - 148-155psi across all cylinders.

The car is FULL ENGINEERED by Canberra Motor Works (Ray Spence) for ALL MODIFICATIONS (except for exhaust volume and atmospheric BOV, duh).

All work carried out by either myself, Canberra Motor Works, Autotech, or ESP. I have receipts and records for just about every purchase and bit of work done on this car. Car always serviced with high quality oils (Motul 8100 engine oil, Penrite Syn75 gear oil)

Major engine mods and tuning done by ESP, have dyno sheets to show 295rwkw @16psi.

THE BAD:

Gearbox is a bit notchy, though I'm sure this is just the oil as it's fine once it's warmed up. Changing to Redline Shockproof will make a world of difference.

Rims have plenty of gutter rash, though not horrifically bad. Just aesthetic really.

Taco occasionally plays up and points straight down. This has no bearing whatsoever on the car's operation.

The paint, particularly on the roof, is quite faded. As proven by my housemate, all it needs is a cut n polish.

Aircon is completely out of gas, coz I never used it lol.

Scratches here and there all over the place.

This car isn't the best example of a clean and tidy R33, I can assure you of that. However mechanically this car has had a lot of money spent on it and goes bloody well (now that I've ironed various issues out). It would make a bloody awesome street weapon if some cash was spent on the looks, or fantastic weekend track car as it is now. I actually really wish I could afford taking it to the track and giving it a real run to see its potential, however I just can't afford another hobby right now lol

I absolutely love driving this car most of the time, except for when silly shit happens like damaging the bumper or the unfortunate misfire issue I finally just resolved. In the cooler weather this thing still scares the shit out of me, and it's not even tuned to its true potential!! I'm not gonna lie and say it hasn't been thrashed - coz I enjoy driving it for what it's built for. I WILL assure you that I have never mistreated this car, so even while thrashing it I'm always mindful of not limiter bashing, watching all the temp/pressure gauges, and letting it cool down appropriately.

The turbo is good for at least another 4psi, and everything else is there to support a tune on e85. You should see a happy 330rwkw easily! I just can't justify spending any more money on this thing, especially if it's only for aesthetic stuff...it owes me somewhere around $40,000 including purchase price.

CHASING $14,000 ono!!!

Will consider swaps for the right dirt bike with cash adjustments.

RWC will not be provided, however all engineer's certification documents obviously will be - so all you need to do in order to pass Dickson is put a legal muffler on it (quoted $250 by Powertune in Fyshwick to have one fabricated) and remove and block the BOV outlet. I am however happy to sell it with however much rego you want to pay for to give you plenty of time to do this, however you should have no issues passing Dickson after the above since I've already gone through that whole shitstorm lol

I know there are cheaper R33s around, believe me I've looked! However the ONLY shit they have on this car is that they have straighter bodies. None of them will have a list of mods and money spent on them as comprehensive as this one does, unless there's either something seriously wrong with the car or the owner is in a really bad financial situation.

PM me, or SMS on 0431391359.

If there is actually any serious interest in this car, I will go to the effort of getting some good pictures as soon as I can.

Please don't tell me I'm dreaming or throw negative comments in this thread. If you disagree with anything here, just let the thread die. To me, this car is worth well more than what I'm asking - I expect it will be to the smart buyer too.

Questions are more than welcome.

[25GTV]

Pics would be great

[Trozzle]

Pictures are the last thing that will sell this car lol...but here are some anyway. Please bear with me, the weather we had over the last couple of days has left a f**kload of dust on anything that was outside...so it really looks worse than it is.

[Trozzle]

Nobody wants a massive potential track car?

[GTR_77]

They've just dropped so much in price now man, no one wants to spend more $ on a worked gtst when they can get thrashed about r32 gtr's or a gtst with light mods for not even 6k that and from what i've been seeing on these forums as of late there is absolutely no money for cars at the moment, i've seen guys on this forum for over a year with little to no price drop refusing to get with the times, same thread for over a year, unsold..

Nonetheless if someone is after this type of car then you should get the interest.. goodluck with the sale

Yeah I completely understand, unfortunately. lol. Ultimately I'll want to keep this car once the weather cools down again and traction in 3rd becomes a huge problem once more...just right now it makes me sad to look at coz I want to make it look nice but I can't justify the coin to do so, given it lives outside and will look like ratshit again in a week.

[Trozzle]

Had a run-in with a small roo last night, signalling that it's time I let go of this project. I've poured enough cash into this car getting the engine and suspension set up nicely, I just don't have patience for setbacks like this. It's time for my loss to become your gain!

Damage from roo hit is fairly minor and most of it can be beaten straight again. Damaged: Front bumper, possibly reo, bonnet and bonnet latch mount, radiator support bar, radiator.

$12k ono, or I'll end up parting it out.

[Trozzle]

Well that entirely depends on what your definition of "properly" is. If you're an insurance company, then properly is replacing every damaged part with brand new OEM pieces...f**king oath that's gonna be expensive.

This damage however could easily be repaired for significantly less if you aren't a deadset potato.

As Mitch said though, don't post if you aren't interested in buying the car.

[Trozzle]

Make offers people! Would be a good car to wreck for parts, don't make ME do it!

[PR34CH]

DO IT!! hahah p.s. i'm first in line for parts

[TM7GTR]

That's really unfortunate about the roo Troy. This car is still well worth the now $12k asking price though. The only reason I haven't contacted you about it is because I'm gonna do up the 34 instead. Good luck with the sale man, and hopefully a thread clean is on its way.

[Trozzle]

I'm putting together a spreadsheet of parts and prices if I were to strip the thing, and going off what people have been selling the same parts for second-hand here on SAU recently, I'm already up to $5k in panels, wheels, braking, and suspension alone. Factor in engine, gearbox, and interior parts and I'm over the $10k I'm asking for the car in one piece and registered!

Surely someone will take this away for $10k considering there's nothing wrong with it other than the vandalism that damned Skippy did!

[Trozzle]

Pulled the bumper and grille off this arvo, damage doesn't look nearly as bad as the photo makes it out to be. Disregard the headlight damage, as I have a pair of immaculate condition headlights in the garage waiting to go on.

[Dose Pipe Sutututu]

Easy fix mate, 2nd hand reo $50, 2nd hand bar $100, bend back the radiator support with a mate $case of beer, 2nd head lights $200?, 2nd hand condenser fan $50... A lick of paint $250

Easy brah, fix sell, no strip easy! No where near $2k+ damage LOL

[Trozzle]

As I said just above the picture, I've already have the replacement headlights just waiting to be fitted LOL

Though seriously...that's still way more money and effort than I'm prepared to put into this car. It's cost me enough money, time, and stress to get it to this point. Enough is enough, I'm done with it cold the sphincter of the universe lol.

[Trozzle]

Bump! Will consider offers (not lowballs)!!

[Trozzle]

And sold.
