To be honest I am not that phased if it sells or not. Took her out today for a run and it is such a blast to drive. People really cant work out what car it is! As musch as I have always wanted a GTR it would be hard to part with,

Ahh true I guess, DR30 enthusiasts are just as rare as DR30's I guess :D

If I knew you were trying to sell yours a few years ago I would of brought yours Shane I was dieing for one for years :D Best thing I didnt though, im guessing you would be regretting it.

when I think about it, sure people regularly are going nice car blah blah blah, but they do tend to get put off when you explain no you cant get one for 2 or 3 thousand :woot:

I'm not in particular a DR fan, but more just an R30 fan.

I was recently offered 15G's for my HR30 PNV, but told the guy he didn't have enough money.

My new engine will rival a good FJ20 and look stockish under the hood, so only the purists will know it's not.

All R30's have reached cult status in Japan and can not be bought cheaply at auction unless they are a real dog.

And even then, getting them to Oz intact is another problem. The hard to get bits just go missing, Zeb's PNV is just one typical example and his was imported years ago as Ravenoak can confess to.

Cheers, D

15's is a good price, but I can understand why you wouldnt sell it for that much, would be dam hard to find a new one.

You have any pics of your car so I can have a nosey... I havnt seen many pics of any HR30's let alone a Paul Newman, apart from the tirm and the signatures on the bonnet / boot were they any differences?

By the way Dennis, do you know if Zeb sold his (my old) PNV?

Wow that looks Mint, very nice car you had.

Not normally a fan of the HR's but I would proudly put one of them next to my DR

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
