I have this in the classified section as well. I know I risk the wrath of the moderators but I figure I would get a better response in the classic section.

Been umming and aahing about the sale for a long time now but I have found a nice road regoed track car I am hoping to move on shortly. I have needed to move from 3 to 2 cars. I sold my TR8 but the DR is way too nice for a track car and I miss my track time.

Well listen to cash offers around $13k.

Very nice car there mate

Good luck with the sale?

Has it had any dyno runs for power figures?

No dyno runs. It would be producing slightly more than stock with the catback exhaust but it is more a classic original rather than an out and out power queen. I must say in the 5 years I have owned the car it has been 100% reliable, a lot more than can be said for my now departed TR8 :P

Bit hard to be a classic original with a full leather re trim?

D

Always stirring the pot D, it is MORE like a classic original than a power queen. The retrim is in original colours and the leather replaces the black fabric..the red inserts are still fabric. ;-)

so true, hence the attention i get a cruises with the orange beast.

Bit like the attention I got yesterday when I took my machine out. Got a big thumbs up from a HSV driver...hmm strange!

Hit me with some genuine offers people. I would like to move this in the near future so I can get my track car.

cheers

Every now and then I hop on Carsales to see if there's any DR30's for sale. I ummed and arred last time you had it advertised and didn't contact you because I didn't have a dedicated garage space for a classic car to live. I'm still in the same boat now but my mrs and I are getting our house ready to sell so hopefully when we buy our next place there will be room for a nice classic like this. I'll contact you in a few months if it hasn't sold and if my circumstances allow the car purchase.

Please don't sell it to someone who doesn't have a garage or intends to drive it as their daily. ;)

Thanks for the reply. I have 2 interested parties at the moment (one more serious than the other) but both need to move their current machinery before they can commit. I can assure you that the one closest to selling their car and moving on mine will garage it and keep it as his Sunday drive.

If and when it sells I will let everyone know so the suspenseful torture is kept to a minimum ;-)

cheers

nice work!!! a quick sale is always a good one :-)

Hmm, dont know about quick...it has been for sale for a little while now. In the end I had 2 very keen parties but it has now been sold to SVD179 on the r31skylineclub forums...I am not sure if he is on here. My apologies to Union 76 on these forums. He was dead keen as well but ended up selling it to SVD179 as he was the first one seriously interested and sold his SVD Pulsar to get it.

Dennis, It is going to Victoria this Wednesday. Steve is going to fly up and drive it back. Good thing it is my Skyline he is driving back to Victoria as I know it will make the trip with ease, as for my old TR8, I wouldnt recommend a trip beyond Wakefield...

Now for my next project

    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
