R33 GTR project
Posted: Wed Sep 23, 2015 3:44 pm
Hi guys,
The R33 GTR has always been the JDM car Ive wanted, sadly they were out of my price range at the time of finding a clean one and then the rx7 came along.
Fast forward nearly 2 years and I saw an unfinished R33 project for sale. Phoned the guy and turns out it is a mate of mine from Primary School's car. In other words got a serious family discount :troll: Thanks for coming so we purchased the car.
Interior has recently been re-done in leather with white stitching
Car has been resprayed Pearl White
Brand new Top Secret bodykit
Also got the following with the car:
1x stock bonnet
1x brand new carbon vented bonnet
a set of brand new Wedssport 19's with brand new falken 255/40/19 tyres
1x stock bumper
1x Top Secret Bumper
1x half cage
Bit of a bargain I think :hurray:
Anyways motor apparently has forged CP pistons and new ACL bearings, head has been flowed and has aftermarket cam gears.
Needs oil pump, waterpump, cambelt and other odds and ends that have or will be bought asap so we can get the motor built and in the car.
Still need Ecu, wastegate, Turbo, exhaust manifold, full exhaust, gauges etc
I have already bought
new water pump
Tensioners
Timing belt
New rear GTR badge
Will be ordering the following tonight after finding out best prices all over
Tomei oversize oil pump ($1100)
Tomei oil restrictor ($50)
Tomei headgasket 87mm ($185)
Splitfire coilpacks ($320)
Hopefully will have the engine sorted within the next few weeks
On to some pics:
When collecting the car
Car was kept at Sportech
Home safe and sound
