I am led to believe the Grey one in HPI #43 is FOR SALE. Check it out on pages 91 & 92

Contact Ben ELLIS from HPI Magazine on (02) 9741 3858

I have seen the car in the flesh and it's a minty condition car, VERY stock, but excellent condition and asking $8-10000.00 with 85K on the clock.

You would be hard pressed to find a better example and it's registered in NSW.

Check it out!

stu_r30 - That'd be benny's DR30 in the For Sale section. You're correct, it is a very nice car, gotta love that colour too!

Ghostrider - I believe that grey DR30 in HPI #43 has now been sold for $9,900, check the Autostyle website:

http://www.autostyle.com.au/cars_engine.asp

If I'm not mistaken, it's the third last Nissan in the list.

just wondering what either a turbo set up or the complete engine would be worth....im putting an l24e into my 1.2L hilux(1974)

gunna haul a55, but would haul more a55 with a turbo.

Option 1 Garage has an L20ET turbo & manifold on their web site.

But needed further is wiring, ECU, etc to make it all work.

More boost can be obtained using an FJ20DET turbo assembly.

Crimmo is what his face (can't remember his name) making all that stuff up for u?? Sounds like its goin to be a bloody tough car when ur finished with it!!

T shirts im up for one as well!! As far as arty designy stuff goes though im a shocker so no design's from this side of the fence!!

How would i go about doing this to my headlights?

thought you had a pic of a BMW for a second, if you want to do that try getting it air brushed on?? several coats as the light will shine through! that way paint stripper will fix it later..

theres a nice dr in the for sale section - 8g's i think, looks nice

and as for the shirt, matt, you've outdone yourself with that design...

seriously, would look pretty good and as others have sed, the r and 30 should be together  :D

car'nt take credit where credits not due, that design is ghostriders, but if you want i'll get a mate to draw up some of the ideas. this is some of his work..that shot is from the need for speed PC game and yes it is a r31 and r30 racing..mate drew the r31..his on line name is 75 degrees sideways..trying to get him to buy the purple dr benneys got forsale??

ive seen that thing done to lights before in some pictures when hunting around the net. they do it on that car with plastic over the lights im pretty sure, as the pic i saw was closer up than that one. not too sure how they do it exactly but its definately a proper plastic surround that you can get, probably coz some pple dont like the plain square lights :D

id say the best way to do it would be with stick on stuff similar to contact, you know like people use to stick on their headlights to do like 'eyelids' n stuff. i dunno where u get that from, car sticker places or watever i guess. just cut it to size and stick it on. then just peel it off and use some stuff to get rid of the sticky residue when ur done.

I would say its a different approach altogether.

remove the glass (by the way how do you do that, im trying to do that now), remove lenses and replace with a round sealed beam and then have some type of cover made to go over it. well thats how i picture it, and yes i though of bmw headlights when i thought that idea up!

somehow i wouldn't go to that degree

when i first got my car it had no headlights and i was thinking of getting ones from a s13 silvia that have that kind of look, i think they have 3 lights not 2 though?

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
