Thinking of finally buying a GTR after many years deliberating but will only do so if my beloved DR30 goes to a good home and for the right price. We all know these machines have appreciated in value in recent years and this is probably one of the best in Australia. I was going to keep the DR and buy a GTR to put beside it but a new place and finances will prevent this. Dont really want to let go of the DR unless I could find something else exactly what I was looking for. Hence my swap list at the bottom of the post.

1984 DR30 RS Coupe

FJ20 Turbo

110700 kms

Volk Racing 16 inch rims with correct offset

Bilstein Suspension

Brand New Strut Brace not yet fitted

Ok in terms of swaps I would consider the following with cash adjustment your way:

Aussie delivered 1991 R32 GTR

1994 R32 V Spec II GTR

1997/1998 R33 Series 3 V Spec GTR

they must also be in comparable immaculate condition with low kms. Modifications ok but must be mild and in keeping with the originality of the car. Colour preference is black, silver, grey, white, blue, maroon. Definitely not purple! (sorry just personal choice :P )

Obviously would prefer NSW car as it would be an easier transaction.

New Year and thinking of another car (terrible New Years afflictions!). If no joy she remains in the garage.

Now done 111000 kms (only done 300 kms in the last 4 months!)

Swaps as per before but would also consider mint KGC10 or KGC110 GTR replica or mint RB powered 240Z/260Z with appropriate cash adjustments.

Got a good lead on an Aussie delivered GTR from a mate. I need to move fast on that one and will take $16k firm for the DR. She is currently getting all the fluids changed to keep everything fresh. If I miss out on the R32 I will take the DR off the market.

cheers

Now regoed until Feb 2010 and had all the fluids changed. Aircon was also regassed and suspension tweaked. I am thinking of a change in direction and considering a tarmac rally car. The DR is too nice to do that and so it is still available. Chuck me a reasonable offer and I will consider it.

hey there...

is the engine farily standard??

any idea of power output?

No engine work. Only change is the 3 inch exhaust cat back. It has been recently serviced with all the fluids changed including gear box oil, clutch fluid etc. No idea of output, prob pretty much standard power of around 150kw but in a lightweight DR they are certainly quick enough.

$15k firm. Rego till January 2010. Absolutely nothing to spend. I have my eye on a nice tarmac rally machine which I hope to settle the deal on in a few weeks.

My DR stock standard with a full 3" from turbo exhaust did 119rwkw so I'd say it would be around there if not a little lower due to standard dump and front pipe.

Always wondered what they would put out at the wheels...cheers.

Car is going on Carpoint this weekend. If you want a usable classic with no faults and show winning condition, here is your opportunity.

My new beastie has now arrived and whilst I have access to my mates garage to store the DR30 I dont want to wear out my welcome long term. It is now on carpoint but the asking price there is not reflective of what I sell it to a genuine Skyline enthusiast. PM or give me a call if you are interested.

cheers

Any engine pics?

Cheers.

The only pic I have is when I bought it over 3 years ago. It is a bit cleaner than this now but you get the idea.

I not really sure on rego requirements in Victoria. My golden rule has always to buy a car in my own state to avoid those hassles.

Nevertheless, it has import improval (TIC sticker under the bonnet) and had an engineers certificate lodged with the NSW RTA when it was imported (i.e australian spec seat belts, side intrusion bars fitted etc). Everything works so a RWC should be no problem. The only thing that would need to be done for a fresh engineers approval in Victoria (if required) would be to re fit the child restraint harness bolts in the rear parcel shelf (I removed them when I put in the new parcel shelf as my kids are old enough now).

I suggest you contact VicRoads and ask them as I would hate for it to go pear shaped!!

cheers

    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
    • The video for the servicing and fuel filter change can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44 One of the main jobs I wanted to do before the car officially went on the road, was to remove the awful looking blue silicone hoses. There's nothing wrong with having coloured silicone hoses, but I realise as I'm getting older I prefer monotone engine bays with a splash of colour on the engine cover(s). I cover this in a lot more detail in the Youtube video, so unfortunately there's limited photos of the process. The intercooler, upper radiator, boost vacuum and upper breather hoses were all changed to black silicone with mikalor clamps. The only blue left is a blanking cap at the back of the inlet manifold and the GReddy pulleys (which will be replaced for stock when the cambelt gets replaced) While the intercooler pipes were off I gave them a quick clean/polish too A before photo I do have a replacement air filter on its way. Fuse box covers were painted blue, they're now satin black Another job on the list while the bumper was off, is to add some mesh https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737966256_99b28bfa30_c.jpg[/img] I was hoping to use some thin wire to secure it, but it seems I've misplaced it and the wire I had was too thick to twist easily. I ended up using cable ties for the time being https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131882_c2b7989dcc_c.jpg[/img] Was pleasant to see this https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/54737131627_8b2aab13b3_c.jpg[/img] The last thing to do was to fix the front grill and re-mesh that to match but I ran out of time The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4FsF6tgizE&t=23s
