Hi All,

On a recent trip to Queensland I met up with the guy that owns the only Paul Newman sedan in Australia and over a beer or 2 we chatted nothing but Nissan for hours on end. I can now add all it's details into my register, so it's complete with all 4 confirmed in Australia.

He took me out to see his "secret stash" and it certainly is a stash. About 30 plus cars, mostly Skylines & 240K's.

Included in this stash lies a genuine S54 Prince Skyline GTB complete with G7 engine and triple carbs, an JDM C210/211 2000 GTEX and of course the HR30 Paul Newman sedan.

This guy is sitting on quite a collection and on his request, it's location will stay a secret and any pics I have will stay unpublished.

It was quite an eye opener.

Cheers, D

TEASER

Not really!

Was nothing much to see, but a lot of cars under car covers in an open paddock with grass up over the door sills.

I only took pics of the Paul Newman sedan, as he wouldn't let me take them of the S54 & GTEX.

    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
