If you want a piece of Skyline history, you guys should offer Pete some money for Marvin, his Skyline GT-B replica, with RB20DET powah.

^this is exactly (bar wheels) the same as my old girl. Farken great car. Awesome on the dirt and living in Canberra it needed to be. The RA23 has the nice LT rear and the nice flat front of the mustang version. Perfect. I had plans of putting a 18RGTEU in but way back when they were bloody costly. Ill buy another one some day.

Damn they're nice! Though I thought the C210 had box headlights, is it only the GT-EX that has headlights like a C110?

How much a C110 or C210 cost, are they importable?

Love those hot plate tail lights. :blink:

There's 2 series (as i call it) of C210's the C210 and the facelifted C211 of 1979/1980.

^ that black one at the top is a newer (like 90s model) Toyota Century. But they kept pretty much the exact same look as the early (70s) Century so that still passes ;)

Old Laurels are cool rigs, and of course the X30 Mark II/Chaser (Cressida in aus)

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
