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

      Returning after a long time!

      By Shizu · Posted

      I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.

      I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
