Giveway, mate there are PLENTY of shite 30/31's around, no wonder you havent seen any real good ones!

imagine this, in the early 80's nissan was making HUGE technological investigations ino atessa, turbos, hicas, and alot of what we see today.

The DR30 was the first car to have the atessa system built, it was on prototypes only

The FJ20det was an insane engine for its time, 205hp or similar from a factory 2litre was unheard of back then

in Australia, as Cazz will show us, the DR30 was a RIPPER at the track

There are similar external size features with the R31, but inside and what not the 30's and 31's are pretty much completely different cars. the Aussie R31 really isnt a true skyline, as it was made HERE and not Factory 5 in japan.

Tag along with us th Skyline Nationals where this year ALOT of R30's will be flying their flags... Im really understanding when you say you not keen on them, perfectly understandable. Only a small handfull are actually any good.

i might be needing a detail too, so feel free to have a blap around the street when you do... ( i have driven it in anger for the last 3 years, done 40,000 km and still cant break it, and believe me Ive tried!)

Well that explains why they've always had a "bogan" feel to me, I've probably only seen the aussie made ones. Your points have been duly noted.

That one I don't mind. I guess I just need to take a real one for a drive. I actually hated R33/34 skylines because of all the wogged up ricers I'd seen. Then I saw my friends with virtually no visual modifications but a lot of money and time spent under the bonet and I saw what the car could be. Ended up buying it 2 weeks later.

The one in that first photo Eiji, I would HAPPILY trade my 33 plus cash for it....f**king BEAUTIFUL car...wow.

i tried selling miranda, and still didn't have enough cash.

females dont know how to use computers yet, do they??

Incase people weren't aware the pic of all of SAU was sent into a Canberra magazine called "Torque Canberra" (if I remember correctly) and it was published. Its a free magazine but the only place that I know you can get it from is Trojan in Mitchell, I may be wrong but that is the only place i have seen it.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
