Have never seen one in this country, but the front grille and headlights often turn up on Yahoo Auctions ~ Japan, but they want a bomb for them as anything R30 is now cult status in Japan. An HR30 coupe like Harry's old car used to sell at auction for about 150000 yen, but today your lucky to get anything reasonable for about 500000 yen.

if someone was after a true one of a kind (in australia) then this would be it....

harldy anyone out there actually knows what this is (or recognise it!)

if i was fully loaded, i would bring it over, take out all the running gear and rebuild it all and then put it in a shed, then drop a nice Rb30, CA18det, RB20det.... L28et whatever the budget desires

one day (like 10 years) this car with all the origional gear in it would be worth SHITLOADS

(so make it last till then, and put the z18 thing back in etc...)

yeh i was lookin at the black thing!...SHINY!!!

there are alot of R30 available for minimal cost, but hardly any are good enough for compliance, and thats where the money is for the importers!

i do know of an importer with 15 DR30s, one with a FJ24det....... but thats his personal one!

I would kill to have an FJ24... and a turbo conversion aswell??? f**k im jealous that engine would be worth a fair fortune.

I did hear DR30's are easier to come by then R32s these days in Japan... when you see pictures of the car yards over there full of DR30's I can see why.

How come most arn't good enough for compliance??? they are in shitbox condition? or to do with other things?

mostly because they are 20+ years old now and most are in fare condition, you could import one your self but to import places only the good condition examples will make them profit $$$....

an FJ24 alone is a very sort after engine and worth a mint to any nissan fan, could be worth more than most of our cars.

i remembe reading an artical about the fj24 around 10 years ago and they were very rare then...

    • About $4k brand new, available from vendors in Oz, or via an importer from Japan. Although that is for an R34 box, so you also need to buy the push clutch front plate (brand new from Nissan) and swap that over, and drill the bellhousing for a push clutch slave cylinder.
    • Absolutely could be. I collected data logs from when the O2 sensor was still out and also after I had replaced it so will try to compare them. Pretty confident that the affect is lowered with the new sensor, will check logs at the same RPMs/conditions.

    • thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price  
    • Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?
