  1. Well - I have my 94 V-Spec2, stock, Grade 5A and 22,000 genuine kms (full service history) insured at 55K and I don't think that's excessive....

    Paid 35K at Auction 2.5 years ago..... (Thanks Iron Chef ;-)

    Glad I got it when I did - not many like it left

    Might sell it to Yankee land in 2019

    Cheers

    Thanks Andreas,

    Sounds like a great car.Yes, the way to $A to $US is at the moment it makes the car very attractive for a US buyer. I am tossing up what to do with mine at the moment. I bought another toy and now the GTR does not get used as much as I would like. That being said, the holding cost are probably only a couple of grand a year and I believe the increasing value of the cars will far outstrip that. Decisions, decisions.

    Cheers

  2. Or failing that Jeff I have a set of Bride seat rails to suit R30 Skyline.

    Just to be clear, that is rails only.

    Chasing $300 + Postage, I'm in Perth.

    Cheers,

    Steve

    Thanks Steve, but the seats i am replacing are Bride seats. My passenger finds them a bit narrow in the hips for her and Iam planning on doing a long trip. Don't tell her I said that.

    Cheers

  3. Jeff,

    I have a pair you can have for nicks sorta if you want to pay the freight to Brisvegas.

    Skinny Dog Freight would probably be cheapest (that's Greyhound if you haven't worked it out)

    Cheers,

    Dennis

    Hi Dennis,

    Sorry it has taken so long but I have been away. I should have mentioned that my Dr30 is a coupe so the seats are to suit that. Are your's for a coupe? I appreciate your offer. Any idea what it would cost on the "skinny dog"

    Cheers

  4. I have an R30Ti wheel for free if someone wants to come and get it. I need to get rid of a lot of R30 parts. Any takers??

    I have moved on to R32 and WNGC34's.

    Hi, what parts do you have for the R30's? Please PM me if you can.

    Thanks

  5. Thanks for all your answers but I ended up reconditioning my old calipers. I got the original pistons sleeved and got 280zx repair kits which fitted fine. The real problem are the needle roller bearings for the handbrake mechanism. I removed the stuffed needle rollers and made up bronze bushes to replace them. It all seems to work fine.

  6. Hi Drew,

    I checked out those calipers on ebay. They are the same piston dia as the DR30 at 42mm but they say that the centre to centre dimension of two sliding pins on the ones they have for the 280zx are approx 125mm. The ones off the Dr30 measure 110mm. What do the ones you have measure?

    Cheers

    Jeff

  7. Awesome. Thanks very much Drew. I didn't know that the 280zx series 2 calipers are the same. They certainly look the same. Are the piston diameters the same?

    The needle rollers on the hand brake adjusting cam have disintegrated on mine.What have you been chewing through on yours?

    Jeff
