Silver Nissan Skyline E-BCN R33
Build date 02/1998
Engine RB26 DE TT 2568
Registered in Vic until 17/11/2014

This care was bought and held as a collectors car by my late brother. He was the second owner and purchased it on 19/11/1999 when it had 3564 kms on the clock. It had been kept in storage for almost all of that time. It is in mint condition and has NEVER been in an accident. It has recently been checked by Eric Schlinlener. By brother passed away just over three years ago and now his widow wants to sell it to another passionate collector.

Only about 100 of these cars were ever brought into the country by Nissan and you will not find another with such little usage and still in mint original condition.

This is a GENUINE rare find and a set price has not been decided as it is not your usual car within the market place. The car is in Melbourne and any questions can be directed to me.

Asking price: $70,000 - Serious buyers only.

Forum rules state a price must be posted.

Also interior, engine bay, speedo, out in the open pics would be a good start for something that is of this calibre.

All things which will help you sell it :yes:

Hi Gabriel,

So sorry to hear about the loss of your brother.

I too have lost a son - as my other son here on SAU has lost his brother.

It appears it's a non-V-Spec. But all the same, I'd ask an importer like Iron Chef to check over the paperwork so he can put it up on his website for you and advise a proper price. Maybe someone in VIC who's also reputable.

Here on SAU you need to furnish a set price or a minimum price pls?

Sorry for being a Nuff. How do I edit my post?

Just put up your price now in a different colour and larger font size now Gabriel + More Pics and car details if poss.

Only Admins and Execs can edit posts after several minutes have elapsed I'm afraid.

Thanks Blitz,

A couple of corrections.

1. Odometer reads 7249 kms (not 7429)

2. First sentence - this car (not care)

3. Sixth sentence - my brother (not by brother)

4. A nominal price of $70,000 is being asked but genuine offers will be considered. This is not a fire sale nor an opportunity to pick up an everyday driving car with low kms at a cheap price. This is a car for a genuine collector or for concourse. It will be retained by my brother's adult sons if not purchased by a passionate GTR enthusiast.

A person that will need to spend $70,000 to purchase this will undoubtedly like to see a considerable amount of photo's.

There was a grade 4.5 Nismo 400R which sold through Japanese auction for $65,000 landed and complied. Considering a scarce amount were made, this is arguably the most sought after R33 model there is (even more so than an N1). Thus, regarding an asking price of 70k + for this....can it be insured for such an amount like the 400r would be able to, considering it's a base model?

I think if you get 40k you have done well.

It's a silver non Vspec.

I put a bid in for an N1 with 40kms 4.5B in Japan recently which sold for 35k.

I would prefer thay to this as I'm sure others will also.

I am genuinely interested in the car but not for anywhere near that price mate.

Gabriel, thanks for confirming the price - Your first post has been updated accordingly

As a few other members have pointed out to avoid confusion, Nissan never brought R33 GTR's into the country, so while genuine low km's certainly qualify this car as a standout collector car, it is still an import.

That said, you are entitled to ask whatever price you like.

Cheers.

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
