Hey all,

I just managed to get my hands on a 87 200ZR Fairlady.... There are few things that I want to do to it and I need an idea as to what other cars I can get body parts etc off... There isn't alot of info out there on these!

Engine is easy - RB20DET.. eventually it will be RB25 or RB26 :P

Gearbox - also R32

Drive train??? Possibly R32 tailshaft? It runs the R200 diff and thats in good nick so Im not concerned about that!

Body...hmmm... its classed as a Z31 so I am hoping Z31 300ZX... Dave (T04GTR) mentioned that DR30 are interchangable as well.... does anyone have any other ideas?

Cheers,

Anna

Heya

Ive got a Nissan 200ZR (87) as well. Its the same body as tha Aussie delivered Series 3 300ZX (commonly called the Californian). Trying to get hold of as many people with same cars to help with parts too. Been trying to locate front parkers (as mine are Amber) that are clear/amber from S3 300zx. Drivetrain is pretty easy to source parts for. A lot of Skyline gear is Interchangable. Drop me a PM if you need some parts. Will try keep look at for them and hopefully you can do same.

cheers

Yeah the 200ZR is a fantastic little car, good to see another one out there. If you want any info about them, I know a fair bit about the RB20 redtops, and the Z31/R31 series in general (as heaps of parts are interchangable between the two) also have owned pretty much all the variants of the Z31/R31 series at some stage.

    • I've searched fairly extensively among Japanese websites but found nothing really like those skirts in your photo. The closest I got was Origin Labo side skirts however they look more 'complete' in that they have a finishing piece or tab at the rear of the skirt so it blends into the bodywork, unlike the one in your pic. For that reason I'd say the skirts in your pic could be adapted from another car and they didn't include that tab piece, or those skirts aren't copied from an existing skirt but an original design. Sorry I can't help out in regard to ID'ing/sourcing them
    • Wonder if JB Weld sponsored the event lol
    • There's a big difference between a car built with millions of dollars in R&D, and someone like yourself taking a normal sporty road car, and making it 5 times more powerful. At the same time, get a modern sports car, and you can turn them up towards the 1000hp mark a lot easier too. Also, give that Lambo another 20 odd runs, and chances are it too may break something.
    • There isn’t really a cheap upgrade here. If someone made a decent, bolt in 6 speed that holds some grunt, it would do very well. The 5 speeds suck. You can put a - OSG 5 speed gear set into it. Ratios are tall so it zaps the “zing” out of it. Had one, busted it. - PPG 5 speed gear set synchro or dog’s. Ratios are even taller. - An overpriced Getrag. Nice to drive, expensive to source now. - A sequential of some sort. Expensive, very expensive. How many times do you pop a 5 speed before you throw the toys out of the cot?  
    • Yes, fair call. I don't have any special love for super/hyper cars but it was impressive to watch the Lambo line up against successive skylines without any problem at all.
