Unique Race Car For Sale On Yahoo Auctions


Recommended Posts

Any owner in Japan would be proud to have a fine example of advanced automotive technology such as this. You will probably need a degree in computers to get the most out of the electronics though.

Classic... hows the list of factory options... NONE !!

Funny thing is theres a couple of these floating around. I know one was brought in by a kiwi and if I remember right there was a monaro as well. think it was lime green.

That ute restored or kept in its rustic condition completely air bagged and with full hydraulics would put shame to those numbnuts that get around various cities in Japan in their low rider yank tanks.

If I owned it I would probably pull the 253 and stick a kei car 660cc turbo donk in the battery tray of the ute. Be just as powerful as a 253 and you can rent the rest of the engine bay out as a 1k apartment in Tokyo.

Actually it is a bit sad to see the state of some of the old cars left in parking spots in Japan. Saw a 70s Corvette in Nagoya a couple of weeks ago on four flat tyres with completely faded paint. There is a 50s Chev about 10mins walk away from my place in Gifu in a similar but even worse condition. I hope those ones Elrodeo was talking about have been kept better than that.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
