Contemplating Wrecking My Hr30

Hi everyone.

I've had my HR now for about 5 years, it's been a great car and a pleasure to own, sadly I think that it is time for it to go before it just rusts away. It's been sitting under my carport now for 12 months and I just can't get motivated to fix up the few things that are wrong with it. So I'm just seeing if there is any interest in either the whole car or some of the parts.

Cheers

Can you post up some pics of the exterior and interior?

There isn't much left of the interior, I stripped it all out because it was in pretty bad shape when I got it, all that is left is the door trims, dash and centre console.

As for the exterior it's not the best looking either, the paint is all faded and the clear is flaking off in places, not much rust except for the bottoms of the front panels and in the boot.

I'll post some photo's up as soon as I can find my camera.

Is it a KHR or an HR30?

Some of the KHR's had a beaut optional speaker enclosure on the back ledge & I would be interested in these if you had them.

And the rear parcel shelf if in reasonable condition, that is required in Queensland, by another old fart on this forum.

Same as picture.

Cheers, D

Hey Ghost

Sorry I can't help you out, there really isn't any parts of the interior that are worth salvaging, It's sort of been the main reason why the project has been on hold for so long, I haven't been able to find any decent interior parts.

I'm still in 2 minds of whether or not to actually wreck this car, since coming onto this forum I'm sort of getting my heart back for the old girl.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.

      There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.

      yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
