Price drop 4K eh????

That mean your now looking for about $8000.00 now?????????

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I think you should take the 2K offer because that's about what it's worth.

The condition of the paint work makes it a BARE METAL RESPRAY and they are expensive, if it's going to be brought back to it's former self. 5K Plus for this, not to mention the replacement cost of the necessary panels & the lower front skirt which is only available ex Japan.

I purchased my Paul Newman version coupe for $5000.00 and it is in very near perfect condition and many streets & blocks ahead of this car you're trying to sell. I also bought a genuine DR30 coupe in lots better condition than yours for $3400.00, so I still say your dreaming thinking of anything near the figure you expect.

I also know of the 2 other Paul Newman cars in Oz & I could buy both of them for less than $8000.00 each and they need absolutely ZERO work to be done to them, as they are now in excellent condition and what's more "THEY ARE RARE".

Don't listen to MAG86, he's just blowing wind up your ass, import or not, your car needs a LOT of TLC and other than the L20ET motor, it's just another R30 sedan which are a dime a dozen.

You might be well advised to take any offer around $2000.00 before you're calling SIMS to come and take it away for free.

Cheers, D

the price is $4k total.... much more money has been spent on this car and the only thing it needs is a paint job. - so if you spend $3-4k on paint you'd have an exceptional car for less than $10k

Note to Ghostrider: F off you old tool! you got a good deal on your paul newman and that would have probably been around the same time i bought mine nearly 8 years ago so get over your self.....

no RWC

but i can tell you what it would need...

washer bottle for wipers (i took it out when i move the air filter but still have the water pump/motor and hoses)

remote swich for the horn (the boss kit for the wheel doesn't meet the brass pin for the horn)

rear demister switch (it burnt out)

new fuse for the hazard lights (burnt out the other week i think)

don't have the time to run around to wreckers to grab those things at the moment but all would be easy to find and put in yourself

Just a question and a free bump... Your gallery pics include:

pretty much original except for whelding up the stock bleed value and putting a damn loud blitz BOV on

Can it get a roadworthy with welded bleed valve, BOV and pod filter?

cheers,

JH

factory bleed valve was faulty and would have cracked the mainfold to remove and refit a new one and the air filter is semi inclosed and can easily be turned into a full contained box if need be

if i got a RWC would you consider making an offer..

car is obviously fully complied, and has current registration in vic. When i changed over the plates from QLD to VIC all vic roads wanted was the chassis/vin numbers and the rego was simply changed over.

not sure what the rules are in vic but i would have thought someone could just have the rego and ownership changed into their name and all would be apples.

Hi Dave,

There are two ways to change ownership..

1. Transfer the rego and ownership with a valid RWC. The RWC has to be done by a licensed tester. Sometimes the seller pays for the RWC or the buyer might agree to pay for it.

2. You hand in the plates (and maybe get a refund on part of the reg) and sell it unregistered. The new owner has to then get the car re-registered which requires an inspection. Not sure if Vic Roads has to see the car or if they'll accept a RWC.

cheers,

an inspection was needed if i didn't have the vin/chassis number handy. It was thought to have the FJ20 motor in it due to a f**k up when it was originally imported... It was thought that a 2.0 badge on the boot meant FJ not L20 so you may be able to slide an FJ in there with minimal hassles.. The original owner in Brisbane who imported tried to have it changed but no joy and back then four bangers were cheaper to rego so he gave up... Same thing happened to me when i first had it insured it was on Shannons books as an FJ same as rego and no one wanted to change it so meh...

I'm sure i'll be able to get my hands on an RWC if you'd like that easy of mind for a rego/ownership transfer

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      Valve clearance for RB25det series 2

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all

      300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
