Sorry for intrupting, but I did an unsucessful search for MR30 dash.

The dash is in good nick ie no cracks its grey and Silver but the silver (where the aircon fan dial and radio and inner gauge surround are) is all worn and needs to be resprayed has anyone done this I would just paint it apart from the fact the dial settings are painted on the silver. Any thoughts? How good does it look black?

Another question I need a cheap rear wing $150 - 200 preferable low, the is none at my local wreakers so I need to know what car is best to look for one off? R32 or is there a better one that fits on the R30 that is easy to get?

yeh ive had to get another one of them, cos the black paint around the ashtray and stuff chipped off and looked gross. just plastic prime it and put a few coats of silver or black over it.

dunno about keeping the decals on though

The POVERTY PACKS have a black background, but they are only available from BROWN interiors.

I am going to use them and change the colour of the trim to maybe carbon fibre look, or just paint them to suit my BLACK dash.

has anybody got any spare grills???

mine was damaged in an accident and was either an early DR grill (non-iron mask) or a HR grill. either way all the grills i have looked at are horrid, the only good one being the latter '84 onwards 'Nissan' off an MR30. but unless i flogg one off my mates car or the car down the road i can't get one.

i have a grill from a 82 mr30 its charcol and sliver in good nic!

towards the interior, mines red on black with a creamie/blue roof trim??? will be changing the roof trim to the trim from the 5door. the dash is black/charcol...

can u show me what it looks like?

if i can't get anything ill just go to the wrecker and buy the shit ugly one and chop it down, put mesh in it

What sort of grille are you looking for????

The early stock 5 row, or later 3 row, or Iron Mask. :ghost:

not iron mask, the 5 row ones are the ugly ones, but i reckon i could cut it down and bog/glass it into a 1 piece, fit some mesh and have a GTRish grill,

wrecker wants $45 for it, is that reasonable? nothing special not in immaculate condition.

the 3 row is ok, but i had this one originally,

I have something similar in the front of my HR30, but was going to use it in my MR to sell it. it's a 2 bar with honeycomb type fill, but the only pics I have are to big to attach. Send me an email and I will attach a pic for you to see.

If I let it go, I would have to get something to replace it, and not necessarily imported.

I will go look around and see what I can find in the town.

Let me know if your interested. :ghost:

i've seen the grill your talking of ghostrider and there very nice, i think jaustech had a hr30 coupe with the grill in question and an rb20det for sale for $12000. it looks like the one on the r31 s3 siloette i think?? view attachment!!

i have to say this

that is one nice looking 4 door!

needs rb power though :wave:

PHaT,

Your car would look cool with the DR front spoiler

are you meaning yours?

I would love one, if i could get one before it goes in to be 'Resprayed yet again' would be a bit easier to fit etc, if i could get a time frame, i might even wait

has anybody used any msd ingition products on there mr30 l24e or similar.  

if so can u please tell me what you used and where u got it from.  

thanks josh

i wouldn't go crazy with MSD gear. really u need to choose your computer first then adapt the CAS to the dizzy and i guess the cheapest way to get coil on plug would be to rob them off an RB20/25. u do realise that anyway you go its gonna cost anywhere from $2K upwards and you are not gonna get a great power increase, until you go radical and do as i said earlier with the cam etc

i have to say this

tomj thats pic doesn't really do justice for the car! in the sunlight, particularly after washing it it almost comes up a metallic gold/green!

the ride height doesn't help too much

i no longer have those wheels, they are on a lancer, i have simmons V5's that are getting resprayed gold

i was considering putting an RB25 in it at one stage but ended up buying the silvia, the engine in it is no slug however.

need a little help, you know the fuses! there is a relay at the bottom left that i'm missing, the very bottom left as you look down (all by itself). i have no referance to work from to replace it so i'm asking if someone could post any details from thier cars to help me replace it!!

Cheers.matt...

In the engine bay, next to the firewall??????

If you are above it looking over the o/s/f guard and it sits below the light relay on it's own, like at the bottom below 2 other relays, you don't need it unless your an AUTOMATIC (heaven forbid matthew) because it's the inhibitor relay, according to the manual.

But if you are looking at it from the n/s/f guard and it has some wires connected at the side of it, it is the horn relay.

Does this help?

You should have a manual, I got a spare that I got with my car if your interested. :ghost:

    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
