1995 NISSAN SKYLINE (R33) GT-R

KEY FACTS

• A true motoring icon of the 1990s, with understated good looks and giant-killing performance 
• Under the bonnet is a 2.6-litre, twin-turbocharged ‘RB26DETT’ straight-six, driving all four wheels via a five-speed manual gearbox.
• While there are some tasteful modifications, this R33 GT-R remains largely original and in excellent overall condition.

EQUIPMENT AND OPTIONS

• The vehicle features air-conditioning, electric windows and HICAS rear-wheel steering from the factory.
• A range of upgrades have been installed, including Rays wheels, Blitz coilover suspension, Cusco strut brace, GReddy Trust exhaust, and Nismo gear knob.
• None of the modifications have more than 3,000km of use, and were all installed as new period-correct components.
• The standard exhaust is supplied with the vehicle.
• It currently resides within a private collection, with an owner who has multiple GT-Rs, and who reports that this is one of the best he has seen.

CONDITION

• No known bodywork damage.
• The factory KLO Silver Metallic paint is in excellent condition, with only a minor scuff mark present under the front splitter. All of the GT-R badges are present and correct.
• Inside, the vehicle is in superb order for its age, with the grey upholstery trimmed in blue stitching with the factory blue insets. All gauges, switches and controls work as they should.
• There are no known mechanical or electrical faults.

SERVICE HISTORY

• The most recent service was carried out by Springy Motors in Victoria, with the coil packs also replaced with new Nissan factory items.
• Prior to this, just 200km ago, the car was given a full service with new oil and filter, new spark plugs and new fuel filter.
• The timing belt was replaced with the odometer reading 105,000km.
