Hi,

Turns out there is a Victorian Nissan/toyota wrecker offering all you can carry parts this weekend for $60. Bargain! Unfortunately for me the L series stuff is a little thin on the ground, its mostly R series stuff. I am slowly doing up my C210 on a really stingy budget, so this is a good opportunity for fellow povs. Any suggestions for what to hunt for? Apparently they have an L series head, but don't know from which model. Are there tell-tale signs to look for, as I hear the L24 head in my C210 is the least awesome of all.

Cheers!

Actually havent been down there yet, but am going tomorrow. I gave them a call however, and I can confidently say that he doesnt have any whole C210s... Just randomn bits and pieces. Mostly he has more modern gear, but I am pretty sure that I will find at least 1 armful of stuff worth $60. Maybe a complete R30 rear end for a cheap and cheerful disk brake conversion... maybe just handy spares like starter motor, alturnator, trim, lenses, cables... Ill see when I get there. My shopping list was too large to go over it all on the phone with the guy. Happy shopping!

Its to late to call them now, but im after R32 GTR (not gts4) inner CV joint and driveshaft - both drivers side

When you are there - if he has r32 parts - could you by any chance pick these up for me? And of course ill pay for it

Nisstoy was a bit of a washout - very little for my C210 and absolutely nothing for an R32. Mostly Pulsar, Corolla and Hyundai non-perfromance stuff. The manager steve is an old-school Skyline enthusiast however, with a large personal collection of cars and parts.

Hey Steve,

You may already know this but if you are still in the market for parts there is a wrecked R32 on ebay for $1,000. Lots of good bits! Its under Cars - Nissan - skyline. 6 days left.

Happy shopping.

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
