Where did the 4th picture down come from?

I'm more interested in the car behind the grey for Paul Newman connection.

Cheers, D

was a iron mask front for sale up in qld a while back. no idea if sold by now or who the seller was. but was on here somewhere..

will upgrade rear swaybar when i find a cheap 1 goin. had a 31 bar layin round from 1 i use to own. made a huge difference out on the track, took out alot of understeer and just felt more stable when goin over 80ks sideways. also got unknown rear spring rates that feel bit soft so that wouldnt be helpin tho..

there was a sweet R30 (and R31) picture thread going for a while over at JNC forums but it seems to have died down now.

This 4-door DR30 provides a constant source of inspiration for my own build

Found it maybe 4-5 years ago on a japanese website when I owned my first DR. It was in at dr30 meeting. Never noticed there was a paul newman version hiding in the pic.

I had the front end pic but deleted it. This was before I didn't really know what a sharknose was... :banana:

Still to this day one of my fave pics and is one that I take alot of inspiration from.

Looks like it goes well for basic stuff mate!

Keep flying the r30 flag.

Ya seen that One, But I think i Missed It :down:

Front Bumper is easy! Any R30 will fit, but what year vintage have you got? 81/83 have the narrow bars & 84/85 have the wider ones.

Headlights and grille/filler is a different story altogether, but not impossible.

Will have to talk to a couple of guys to see what they say.

Will let you know when I know more, but in the meantime, I need to know what vintage we're working with.

Cheers, D

    • I'll just leave this with, holy shit, those cars at work are awesome, and this will look wicked!
    • Could you modify this duct so instead it pushes the extra air through the radiator too and not down and out? For temps, I know it's not the greatest idea, but as a bit of a last resort, you could use a very intermittent misting spray onto the front of the coolers/rad. You don't want to be soaking them such that water is dripping off, but a small most on/off so that the water evaporates. That point of it constantly evaporating, rather than being soaked in water, will pull a LOT of heat out of the cooler. I'm literally thinking just the little mist sprayers for a garden from Bunnings. Being in a low humidity climate it will help even more! The other trick if you want to be ghetto is some shade cloth hung in the opening, and keep it wet. Pretty much now it's acting like an evap cooler on a house, but cooling the air you need to use to cool the radiator...   On a topic to think about too though, when air enters through the bumper, is it all nicely ducted from the edges of that opening back at a nice angle, or is it like most cars, and the edge of the opening just stops, and suddenly it's wayyy wider behind that? If it does the later, get it shrouded out at nice angles. When that opening changes too rapidly, it can actually cause a high pressure zone between the front bar and radiator, and limit air flow into that area, which means less air for cooling, as it effectively stalls the air, AND adds to drag...
    • Do you have any before and after photos? That's $200 just for the hydro blasting?
    • Yea pedal box and no abs
    • It doesn't look like there's a lot of options out there these days, and what's out there is performance oriented aftermarket stuff (with the GTR markup) I wonder if there are other cars with similar springs, after all its just a matter of length, diameter and stiffness. Alternatively, I did see coil spacers. Probably not the best option, but could be serviceable too.
