How much did you sell your DR30 for?

Let it go for 10k, the guy didn't beat me down once, and is happy as could be, ive been told many times its worth more :( i still regret selling it at all. To be honest i think the DR30 was a better can than my gtr, not as fast or powerfull but its just straight up tough! :D and the GTR has 2530's, PowerFC, 100mm Cooler, injectors, 4" zaust, etc etc quite a responsive and powerfull package, but i miss the DR :)

That photo of the engine bay was not as it was when i sold it, i pulled that motor setup out before selling it. I sold it with a pretty tight FJ, haltech, VG30 and a few other engine perfomance bits. The photo of the engine i posted was how i first built the car, fully restored engine bay etc, ran up just over 500kms in a brand new chris miltons engine, made 200rwkws at 9psi, running the engine in :D I still have that engine in the photo and everything to go with it, im trying to decide what to put it in... if i found another DR shell i would use that :)

But yeh, would have nailed a std GTR with a rolling start :)

Roll on it would have to be close to the GTR wouldn't it?

What power was it making?

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
