Holden Berlina Turbo Automatic RB30ET If someone has the cash, I will sell this car, I want a GTR and nothing no one says will stop me getting one if I get the right money for the Berlina. Car has just had a bare metal respray in Porsche Arena Red with GM MX Grey Bars and Moulds, all work done by I and J Paint and Panel, have pics of car stripped etc and I have replaced heaps of parts with new items such as- Genuine GM pinstriping Genuine GM Berlina Tail Lights and Rear Garnish GM Boot and Corner moulds Brand new non genuine wing mirrors and windscreen moulds Brand new non genuine front bar fillers and centre section of front bar New non-genuine headlights Brand new windscreen Motor is fresh, has not been started since rebuild but will be prior to sale, rebuild included- Engine ACL Forged pistons Cometic head Gasket ARP Head Studs and Rod Bolts Large Tighe cam Performance Valve Springs Romac anodised vernier cam gear K and N 4" pod Engine bay extras include- Large polished Oil catch can mounted where charcoal canister sits and returns to sump Brand new Black silicone hose ACL heat shielding around dump etc...all this stuff costs $$$$$$! Exhaust side Brand new Xtreme manifolds high mount and 4" dump pipe with screamer pipe. Garrett GT35/40 (0.82) polished comp cover Turbosmart 48mm Pro-Gate The manifold, dump, screamer and exhaust hsng are Hollywood (Hitemp) coated and look trick. Inlet side Polished Rajab Racing plenum with XF throttle body Earls vac fittings 600x300x76 Hybrid cooler Custom pipe work by BTR alloy fabrication Electrical/Fuel system Haltech E6H Fuel/Ignition ECU MSD 6A ignition New Bosch ED coil New custom ignition leads headlight wiring etc hidden in chassis rails Battery in boot Fuel system in boot 2xBosch 910 pumps Large BTR Alloy surge tank replaced intank pump 550cc 13BT injectors Trans/Diff MV Automatics built Jatco 4 speed with brand new 3500 stall.

Running gear all low kms and done little work if it is not brand new. Car is now 99% complete and is getting the dump welded up this week, i'll then be running it in and will probably change my mind! Previously made 282.5rwkw on 20psi with factory exhaust manifold and different plenum etc so im expecting 300rwkw pretty confortably on similar boost with the new manifolds etc. It is for sale, dont waste my time and I wont waste yours, cash talks (or Bank cheque), bullsh1t walks etc etc etc I may negotiate a price without the wheels but at this time I am firm on price, scoff all you like, this is not a slapped together muzz spec N/A convert and if it dont sell, I will enjoy the sound it makes on the limiter for sometime... Link to thread with pics etc in the VL Turbo section http://www.calaisturbo.com.au/showthread.php?t=90905 Quick pic of car not long after it left paint shop, motor is not fitted in this pic- Cheers, Darren.

They are **** to drive!!,handle not real good and feel really,really,really old, my r31 is heaps more fun to drive. the 33's GTR are ALOT better and feel much newer, just heavier. Be careful, aswell r32 gtr's are FAMOUS now for Running Bearings (seeing as they rev to 8000rpm, it kills them) and breaking ringlands, especially modded ones. If i had a dollar for everytime i have seen someone buy one . put turbos and cooler/boost into it, and they promplty take a crap, i woudn't have to work, get a r33 For 30G you may get one with a newish forged/h-b eam motor, i know somebody that was selling there 33 with a fresh no km built motor not long ago for $30,000 was in really good nic aswell. Whatever you do, try get one with a fresh motor, you don't need any more **** with cars, What do you want one for?, how much power? Evo's are still easily the best 4wd car, and the most fun to drive. cheers darren Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

You need to go in a REAL one, designed to do what they are meant to do 260-270awkw and semi-slicks. I have been in stinker wrx's, evos and gtr's... the evo is miles ahead for fun factor. the gtr would be the slowest through the adelaide hills, and the first to end up a tree! cheers darren

I really want one because of their race heritage and ive always loved the shape etc...each to their own I guess. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

R32 GTR would defiantly be my first pick!

I can understand your reasoning man, although it would be a shame. I guess driving the ass off a car someone else built instead of your own would be less stressful somehow as well. Good luck either way man, just make sure it goes to someone who'll respect it (with deep pockets haha)

Driveline and boxes are extremely strong for factory units. GTiRs arn't a bad little package either. Back on topic, top car, good luck with the sale Darren.
