thats the one, looks better in the light, so far all the r30's i've seen in HPI i've seen on the streets of the Gold Coast expect Bens White DR30. Mind you one was upside down in the middle of the road completly written off

that other one pictured looks very nice, great colour too.

Hi guys, at work today one of my customers came in this old timer HR30 import, ok he says he cant register it in NSW, it has no compliance plates just a manufacture plate.. I spun out when i saw it, It looked like it had a L20 turbo in it. He bought it from perth in the mid 80's for $7000, and drove it back here. He uses it as a workhorse & it shows. He says that everywhere he goes people ask if he wants to sell it.... Also he reckons that its " 1 of only ten brought to Oz" but i wouldnt have a clue, does anyone have an idea?

wowzers!

daily driver for sure!

some origional extras too!

I'd say its an 82 or 83 (the thin back bumpers have the black strip in them)

could be a massive job getting it back to standard condition

very interesting though!

there was a very nice looking blue Dr30 at buzz engines in sumner park brisbane last week

[coupe72001]

I have seen this 240k before... it's extremely nice throughout. Too bad my C210 is prone to jealousy.

[Ghostrider]

One of Ten thousand maybe!

Not really, but there were heaps of 4 door HR30's in Oz, similarly KHR30's, although as they get older, less want to keep them on the road so current numbers are fairly small.

It's the Limited Edition's and DR30's that are more rare, although Powerplay Imports were still bringing in DR sedans up until mid last year.

As for the Passage GT on another thread, I have pics & specs in a JDM sales brochure that I will post when I get time.

Cheers

KHR30's,

KHR30, thats a new one to me what does the K stand for? so many variations on the R30's its hard to keep up :laughing-smiley-014:

That is my old car (I put the IOF 003 plates on it). Zeb has been trying to sell that machine for nearly 2 years. Unfortunately it looks a little worse than when I sold it. I note a lot of those photos were taken in 2004 when I sold it to him. Still it was rust free and reliable.
