people give the R33 gtst sh&t saying it handles like a boat; I disagree. It handles great, just not in stock form. Then again, a lot of cars don't.

Some stuff I've got for sale, for an R33 but I believe most/all will fit r34 - pls check for yourself though to confirm. All available for pickup/delivery in Brisbane, or postage as listed.

R33 a-pillar braces. Handmade in my workshop so don't expect production-line welds and finish; they are neat enough, fairly light and strong as sh&t though, and if you don't notice the front end feeling a lot more solid on the road over 100kph I'll be very surprised, I found a huge difference once fitted. $100 the pair, $15 posted anywhere in Oz.

TEIN medium S-Tech springs. These drop the car by about 30mm, and are around a 4.2kg spring rate? from memory anyway, exact rates on the Tein JP website. Ok, these are as close to brand new as you can get; bought them when I thought my bc coilovers were on the way out. Bought these tein springs and put them and a set of shocks in, and found the issue was the same and nothing wrong with the bc's (product plug for bc's, good item) and so these springs came straight back out, and have sat in the garage for the last 18 months being kept for when I might need them again. BC's still going strong, so if you want a set of top-quality springs new without the new pricetag, here they are, still in original Tein box.

Link to counterfeit Tein spring id'ing, these are genuine not copies. https://thecounterfeitreport.com/product/336/Tein-S.-Tech-Springs.html

here's the cheapest price I could find

so, I'll do $350 for the set of 4, and $20 posted anywhere in Oz except NT and WA.

Gizzmo IBC-R electronic boost controller, options of 6 boost presets, and rpm setting. Guaranteed in good working order with user manual, just that the wires have pulled out of the back of the plug that plugs into control unit. Either track down some square-end wiring plugs or just call Ray at gizmo and buy another plug kit, and you got yourself an electronic boost controller cheap. $100, plus $10 posted anywhere in Oz. And I do mean guaranteed working, I wouldn't sell it if it was no longer working.

a-pillar braces, recirc adapter and castwizzle-brace sold.

Also found in my garage

- 1x set of subframe aluminium lock collars, black. Look just like the million other pics of subframe collars, except one of the upper collars has a slightly ground-away section where I was trying to make it seat in better against the OEM rubber before I realised it would make no difference so gave up, so is only done to one of the pieces. $30 plus $5 postage, happy to post up a pic if anyone keen.

- R200 ABS diff off r33 gtst, 4.1 gears. Long-nose? has abs sensor at front near tailshaft. $100 pickup or deliver in Brisbane, too heavy to post.

trash or treasure, a bargain or an insult to your wallet? you decide.

All parts for R33 gtst.

Subframe collars - have 2 sets, one aluminium solid type, the other Superpro urethane (seem to be missing 1 ring, as soon as I find the other one in my garage, will sell as a full set). Marks etc as pictured, both still in good order and very serviceable (aluminium ones hardly used, superpro ones have about 3 -4 years on them) $25 a set.

20160425_113044.jpg

Superpro steering rack bushes, about the same amount of use 3-4 years, still in very good order. $20.

20160425_113040.jpg

Genuine Nissan tailshaft centre bearing. This is effectively brand new, but - fitted this bearing, only to find an issue with the tailshaft itself, so had to swap tailshafts. As this was brand new and they cost $160+ I pulled it off and in trying to do so without damaging the rubber casing, one centre flange got bent up as pictured. If you straighten this out so it doesn't rub, it will be as good as new, but, price reflects this damage. $50 neg.

20160425_111214.jpg20160425_111218.jpg

Which leads me to - 1x tailshaft flange and front section, both still in good working order, issue was with rear section. These might be handy if making a custom tailshaft...? $20 neg anyway.

20160425_114303.jpg

1x R33 actuator, $10.

20160425_111254.jpg

pickup on Brisbane northside or can post anywhere in Oz (tailshaft excepted).

  • 8 months later...

all still available as above, plus have found the missing piece for the superpro subframe bushes so now is a full set.

Also have

- stock rear strut brace for R33GTST, $40, in VGC - comes apart into smaller pieces so can post easy enough.

- set of 4 Bridgestone Potenza RE003 245/45/17 tyres. 2 are in extremely good condition, done just on 3000 k's, other 2 are still in good order but have done just over 6000 k's. According to Bridgestone these have 7.1mm tread depth new, and they still have 5.6mm and 6.33mm depth respectively, so heaps of life left in them. They don't have enough dry grip in them for my liking but they do have a lot of wet grip, and for the price, a good dry tyre too. After $160 for the really good 2, and $120 for good 2, or can do a better deal for all 4.

BNE - rb25det to suit rebuild

Rb25det bottom end out of R33 Skyline - block is in good order, crank is good but superficial scuffing to no.3 rod journal where rod spun a bearing - only shallow marking so will be fine for engine rebuild. Have the stock rods, and 4x stock pistons (have used the other 2), and sump.

Apart from oil pump which is yours if you want it, this is just the parts listed, no balancer, manifolds etc.

Had bought this to do an engine rebuild but ended up rebuilding the engine already in the car.

Not really keen on shipping, prefer local buyer in Brisbane - $150.

GK Tech tie rod ends, as new

yo...Bought a set of GK Tech spherical bearing tie rod ends, as shown here

https://www.gktech.com/high-misalignment-64-degrees-tie-rod-ends-12mm-14mm.html

As everyone is no doubt aware spherical bearings can transmit a lot more NVH, and I found I didn't personally like the feel of them in the tie rod ends for a street car, I prefer a ball joint. So, after only being on the car for 167km's (then changed to ZSS ends as per log book), we have an almost new full kit for sale. The current GK Tech kit doesn't have holes in the ends of the kingpin for a split-pin retainer so I have drilled this in, to allow the extra security of having a split-pin fitted top and bottom. As it notes in the GK Tech link, you need to cut down your stock tie rods too to fit these, so included is a set of rods already cut to the right length (note if you cut your rods, it only leaves about 8mm of thread engagement if you ever decide to go back to a stock-type balljoint). One rod is genuine Nissan, the other is Roadsafe - both 12-18 months old and easily 5+ years left in them.

Selling the tie-rod end kit and the 2x tie rods as a set, $150 posted across Oz .($160 WA and NT)

    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
    • Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
