Hi guys,

I am new to this forum and have joined it to ask your advice.

My 97 year old mother passed away last month and I have to sell her beloved Skyline which she still drove.

It's a one owner 1981 Skyline Silhoulette (spelling). It's in original condition and I thinks it's done about 130,000 km. It has a couple of dents and needs a tidy up, but I have no idea if it's a car that's of interest.

Hello Gronkey. Welcome to the club, sorry to hear about your ma.

I've seen manual rb30de skylines of that era going for $1500-2500 which is what I'd pay for one if it was manual.

Another place you may like to try to value it would be the r31skylineclub.com just hit their forums up.

there were no mr30 silos, if its a silo it will be a R31 (1986-1990)

someonestolecc, they are single cam rb30e.

if its fairly clean and well looked after you would be able to get around 3 grand for it, if your willing to wait. if its auto itd be worth alot less

You got pics you can post, as I might be interested IF it's an 1981.

Cheers D

Sorry about the delay but I can't get to the car to take pics until Monday.

It's 1981, white, auto, Vin MGC210100372, eng no. L24385835.

Passed full inspection for rego last November.

Situated on Gold Coast.

L24e engine then

so it is a r30 skyline

nice

I don't think so!

Engine number is L24 which would indicate a carburetted engine making it a C210.

If it's in fact an L24E it is most likely an C211, but with an MGC210 VIN I wouls imagine it is in no way an R30.

Cheers, D

No, it is injected ... I tokk the numbers from the rego papers but I'll post all the numbers off the build plate and a pic tomorrow night.

Cheers,

Gronker

Here's a white one I prepared earlier... :)

That's it Matty T

I've tried to upload pictures but it won't happen. I don't know why as I've uploaded plenty of pics to other forums.

Anyway it's the same as Matty T's pics except that its got rub strips down both sides.

The numbers are;

Datsun Skyline Sedan E C210

Engine L24E Code L24E - A

Build 2/81

So, is anyone interested in it?

Hi Peter, can you email pics to me please (alfadog at big pond dot net dot au)?

C111 were not sold here as far as I know. The "1" was used in Japan to signify different (more stringent) emission conrtols on the car - NOT to do with the "facelift".

This car is not really very valuable unfortunately. I would say you'd be lucky to get anything over $2000 for it, but perhaps some of the C210 experts could correct me here! I have never looked to buy one.

dammit, im late in this thread,

C210 sedan.

81 model were all injected, and for their age are quite nice to drive, they came with power steering aircon and power windows, the lucky ones also got power mirrors.

i have one of these which i picked up almost a year ago for 1600 dollars, registered. mine had bad paint though.

they are quite difficult to sell, but if your not in a hurry, it will sell eventually.

i currently have one for sale and also two coupes of the same model.

even though most people beat me to the punch, i hope this helped,

Jason

Sorry about the delay in replying as I've been away.

Thanks a lot Jason, you're spot on with you're description, and it looks the same as Matty T's pics (post #12).

As I said originally it's got a couple of dents and some surface rust but it MUST BE SOLD to wind up the estate. It's located at Nerang on the Gold Coast

I'm open to any offers. Just pm me or if you want to contact me by e-mail it's .. [email protected]

I'll try again to upload pics but if they don't show, it's the same as Matt T's pics.

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
