yummy! always loved the look of the old DR's, still not quite as hot as the peter gibson hr's but still quite sexual..... if i was rich i would be on that thing in a heartbeat.

hey they said their negotiable, drop em an offer :verymad:

will peter jackson pay you sponser ship money to drive it?

well i think thats the most ive eva seen someone asking for that model skyline.

shouldnt that be like in a museum somewhere? birdwood maybe, i mean picture writing that off, dont think insurance can replace it

i still think it looks like ass! lol my 33 pwns that over looks... ahaha

like no offence, but if u ever even tried to compared ur car with this ud just be wasting ur time.

f**king nice peice of work, but gotta say the price tag on it does seem a bit steep, even with the history behind it imo.

hopefully the buyer puts it where it belongs, in a museum somewhere.

would be sad to see some clown with more money the brains buy it and kill it, having said that, it would be awesome to see it launch around a track with someone decent behind the wheel.

u guys seriously think that looks good? im not saying the whole car is like ass just saying about the 'looks' i personally dont like it lol.. would you prefer the look of a 33 gtr or a dr30? lol

Edited by gtrkiet

i thought it was r33 you preferred?

for its day, it was an incredibly agressive looking car.

and in 'this day' i would still take the 30, even now it looks mean, and the history behind it adds to the appeal of course.

its mechanical genius and even by todays standard put a top notch driver in it and it would give the super V8s a run for there money

its not a show car thats not what we like about it, its because it was the underdog plus group A touring man

If it wasnt for cars like that the skyline wouldnt have its racing hisotry..... Really what has the R33 or R34 gone down for in history....sweet f/a it was the the 32 and previous that caused the ledgend of godzilla

The owner of this car also has the GIO GT-R. Ex-Gibson employee.

Lots of work done to bring this car back to "as raced" spec.

Actually got to see this car, the Winfield GT-R and one of the R31 T/Cars running around DECA in Shepp. at the Skyline Nationals. Very nice.

All 3 owners are some of the nicest guys you're likely too meet.

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
