Default Stunning Le Mans R33 GTR skyline 460bhp, £30k spent

[QUOTE=gaaables;3920087]its with deep regret that im placing my beloved le mans r33 gtr up for sale, due to a recent house puchase.

its a beautiful car that i really dont want to part with, but needs must unfortunately

the car has a massive file of receipts totaling £30k plus, also has loads of new parts fitted that have covered less than 500 miles

the car was imported in april 2006 my newera imports, who are known for only importing the best examples. with 63,000 on the clock

since being imported it has always been looked after by abbey motorsport, again know as one of the best tuners in the uk. theyve carried out numerous modifications including supplying and fitting new hks turbos, cams, intercooler, fuel pump, turbo elbows, injectors, EVC5 and fcon ecu.

they also completed a full bottomend rebuild with all uprated bearings etc in 08/2006 when the milage was 69,646. the milage now shows 86,000.

the car has various rolling road graphs, the most recent being 460bhp at 1.2 bar boost

Always warmed up and cooled down properly, regular hanges with Silkolene Pro R 15W-50 oil

a brief spec run down

HKS GTSS twin turbo Kit.
HKS Hi-cap Fuel Pump.
HKS Turbo Elbows.
HKS 680cc Injectors.
Twin Trust Airinx Intake Systems with mushroom filters.
Trust Downpipe.
Powerflow 115mm Exhaust System.
Full bottom end rebuild with new bearings
HKS F Con SZ management
HKS Intercooler and Hard Pipe Kit.
HKS EVC 5 Boost Controller.
HKS splitfire spark plugs (new)
Nismo N1 Oil Pump
Nismo 400r style front splitter painted body colour
19x10.5 varsteen te37 with 275 tyres (less than 6 months old)
ksport 356mm 8 pot front brakes (less than 6 months old)
Upgrade Rear Brembo Slotted Discs with Ferodo Pads.
HKS hypermax fully adjustable coilover suspension (recently rebuilt)
Exedy dry plate clutch
Chequerplate Front Footwells.
Full leather retrim in White with blue inserts (less than 6 months old)
nismo clear indicators
clear side repeators
carbon spoiler blade
carbon grill

the car is a truely stunning example with a lot of new parts including brakes, wheels, interior. the engine turbos etc have all only covered 17k. ive spent around £5k in the last 9 months.

unfortunately the car has a couple of scratches and a few stone chips. this didnt bother me as i wanted to use this for a few trackdays before going for a respray. i believe this car to be worth £16k plus with fresh paint.

unfortunately i need to sell so im pricing it at £12,800 px possible

pics to follow showing vehicle with all its recent modifications, here's a couple of old ones for now

Thanks I think, pics don't do the car justice at all. And yes I do like the interior thanks, it's also nice to have something different to the boring cloth interiors that these cars come with

Interior stands out a wee bit too much for me, but the rest looks great and the wheels suit the car so much.


Cheers,

Thanks chaps, I'm ok for a kidney at the mo, il keep you in mind if that changes lol

They are amazing cars, the way the 4wd comes in when the rear wheels loose traction is awesome. I really would keep it if I could
