Guys,

My GTR is dead after a bad accident, never to be registered again :P Just wondering if anyone would be interested in buying the wreck? The engine has suffered no damage at all and the entire left side has been untouched. I'm chasing offers over $10,000.00

The car is available for inspection so please PM me if interested.

Pictures are available but not very good quality.

Hey guys....thanks for all your pms and for your condolences...I will reveal all the details of how the accident happened later....(hate talking about it.....IT GIVES ME NIGTMARES!!!)

Yes the car is a statutory write off, never to be registered again but the amount of good stuff on it (i.e. entire left side, rear, engine, gearbox, interior, wheels etc...) allows for some serious money to be made...I don't have the time or storage location to wreck it out, that's why 'm trying to sell it as a complete wreck...

  • 2 weeks later...

Car is pretty much sold (less the wheels, I'm keeping them) and the guy promised to have the money by the end of this week. No deposit has been left though and so if he can't come up with the money by the end of this week, the car is back up for sale...

Hi Demon, There is a mechanic down the road from me who is looking for EXACTLY what you are selling. He has had an r33 gtr with a stuffed engine/transmission in it up on the hoist for almost 10 months. He has physically not been able to locate an r33 front cut for a GTR and would happily pay $12k just for the engine+running gear.

If your guy does not come through with the money I can 99% guarantee you will have a buyer. Please PM me your mobile and I will pass it on to him.

    • Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.
    • Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys
    • Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels
    • Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)  
    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
