I haven't seen the car but here's the link: http://www.jollysupullit.com.au/eziparts/D...E%2003/78-01/81

The web searching for this yard (Dandenong, Vic) is excellent, pics of all the cars and an inventory of parts removed.

Who's going to buy it? if it's cheap enough I wouldn't mind it. Shame they were closed today, couldn't get any answers.

They were open today. I don't think they ever answer the phone (at least the advertised public number). Try the email address on their contact page. http://www.jollysupullit.com.au/WebPage/WebPage.asp?Ref=6954.

WOULD ANYONE BE INTERESTED IN RETRIEVING PARTS OFF THIS FOR ME. I WILL PAY BY THE HOUR< SAY $50PH. The convenience of just having engine mounts and Gbox mounts pre made out ways cost, epecially when you've got to cart things back and forth to engineers.There's also some other bits and pieces I'd like also.

RB engine and box conversion is pretty straight forward for what i've been told. (one of my coupes had a s/c rb30 in it, but i got it as a roller)

Use rb rubber engine mounts, need to cut about an inch down off the drivers side engine bracket, reuse L series g/box x member and tailshaft. (unless using a 25 box, need to shorten tailshaft)

I also have a modifed engine bracket out of a rb20 c210 that was wrecked down here.

post-44326-1264493685_thumb.jpgSo Gordie are you saying the RB30 5 speed and possibly the RB30et box will need no special Gbox X member, the L series will bolt up to it with NO alteration? The L series drive shaft yoke will plumb nicely into the RB Gbox? So in this pic, I'm looking at ( this is the one at Jollys') the Rb30 engine mount and the rubber is also RB30. Now the main piece attached to the chassis is ? C210 or RB

Looks like stock rb30 bracket and mount to me in that pic. Got a pic of the other side? other side should be shorter.

Engine x member should be a c210 one, well at least mine is.

Tail shaft yoke is the same size/spline, not 100% that lenght is the same, but i was told that it fits staight in, il measure mine up tomorrow to double check.

You can even reuse your L series gearbox, just need to slog out the top to bellhousing bolts, and modify the gear shifter because it will be on a angle due to the way the rb mounts up.

As for gearbox x member im not 100% as my coupe didnt come with one, but i was told a c210 one will fit the rb box.

Ricky I'll get some more pics of the car when I go out and have a look at it. If you like I'll give you a buzz when I'm there to see if you still want anything - but buy the sounds of it you may not need mounts etc. Cheers Drew

Your a champ Drew, I'll still take mounts anyway if your prepared to pull them. Knowing myself tomorrow it'll be a SR20. Are you looking at it before saturday? it's just that i'm away to Bali for 6 nights Sat onwards.

Did the bonnet have some of the reo underneath it cut out to clear the manifold?

...

Bonnet was gone when I saw the car. There's an old pic on Jolly's website showing the underside of the bonnet (link is in first post of this thread).

      I drive the Tiguan much harder than the Skyline in all conditions, because it just grips and hooks, unlike the R33 shit box

      The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.

      When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.

      Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.

      This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
