This is my R33 Nissan Skyline which has proudly been in my possession for almost four years.

Purchased almost completely stock at 130,000kms, this car has been maintained meticulously by me as someone who was and still is a big Skyline fan.

It is sad to see her go but it is time to move on, as hard as it may be. This car has served me well, it has never seen a track however, taking it up the windy roads to terrigle is a blast, a raw driving experience and truely where the 6cyl turbo comes to life.

This R33 has had 2 owners before me in Australia, car has lots of paperwork with it with history of import and servicing. I have replaced:

- Fuel filter 10,000kms ago

- Genuine nissan coil packs 20,000kms ago

- HID lights (great for night time dirivng and does not attract unwanted attention)

- Stock seats with genuine GTR seats valued at over $700 at the time, these seats are also in great condition unlike many others

- Stock suspension with Ohlin PCV adjustable suspension worth $3,000 (needs to be driven to believe)

- Body painted front strut brace for added chasis rigidity

- Very recently added a boost controller to push boost from standard 7psi to a safe 10psi (this makes it much more enjoyable) 10,000kms ago exactly

- Cat back exhaust, sounds great and isn't as loud as those cannon types

- Interior dash lights changed to quality white LED's, look very sporty/modern at night

- LED boost guage which can change colours

- Nismo gear knob

- Fairly new 265/45/17 tyres back and 245 at front

This car made 155kw at the rear wheels on the dyno last year with stock boost. Still have the paperwork to show this. This R33 is ready for a new owner who not only wants a powerful RB25 but also a nice clean body to suit.

For a fairly stock R33 this thing runs beautifully, it can be aggressive when needed and with the dampers set up the right way, it will feel like a track car, eating up any corner it comes across.

Car also has a factory sunroof which is rare, and also has the front spoiler/lip which is hard to find but makes it much more aggressive than stock.

Asking for $13,900 ONO. Engine and body in great condition, any inspection welcome as I am very confident in this car. Minor paint imperfections as can be expected with a car this age, nothing to fuss about as there is so much more to appreciate. Needs to be driven to be appreciated and comes with paperwork for piece of mind.

No tire-kickers or low ballers, not in a rush to sell.

    • That would be interested if it's the case as seems like it would make the job a lot messier but subaru sells OEM gaskets so seems it might of had it.
    • Fuel tank is out. Looks pretty bloody good under (ie above) the fuel tank.  Amazing how good the factory e-coat holds up in the hidden areas.  No where near as much body deadener to get rid of as the front but still not looking forward to it!  Shit of a job.  I'm thinking I might grab a needle scaler and give that a go before I attack it with the angle grinder and wire wheel which is how I did the front 2/3's of the car.  Feels good to be working on the car again but who knows how long it will last!  Hopefully I can get it further forward than where it was prior to this last block of work when I decided to go back 10 steps further down the rabbit hole from where i already was! The problem is, I'm realising how hard it will be to repair and paint the bumpers, which cannot be put back on the car, and have a good paint match. There are also areas where it would be VERY hard to hide the new paint where it transitions from old paint. Like this- There is only one way to do that perfectly and I really dont want to have to do what that means I would have to do... 🤦‍♂️
    • Pretty sure the factory assembly doesn't have any gasket at all, just RTV.
    • I will get a couple cans for sure thanks, I do have 2lt fish oil to spray around the car already.
    • Thought I’d post pics of the packages for those interested. The premium package is #16. Remote start, security with tilt sensor and remote and backup battery, auto fold mirrors and door illumination.    Can post up pics of all the factory options and images from the factory options brochure if people are interested. I have all the dealer books etc for all rv37 models.
