Does that Amber tail light mean it only brakes with the inside lights :(

Stupid Nissan Australia! Way to kill the hotplates

I also agree with it being stupid.

Seemed a natural occurrence with Australian delivered skylines.

C110 - 240K had outside indicators instead of 4 red hotplates

C210 - R30 didn't come with them at all.

Series 1/2 R31 didn't either

but Series 3 did.

All the above models, japan released all had hot plate round tailights.

not sure if the RTA is like the QT up here but you can request QT here to contact the owner and have them contact you if they wish to.

the roof dent - not that bad. mind you to fix it will take a full strip/spray of the roof. mine has one like that on teh opposite corner same colour.

rest of it decent nick and definitely worth doing if you can get you hands on it.

as for opening one. easily done with the correct tools.

I drove past a few days after posting the pics and the car was gone. I left my business card logged in the front door asking him if he was interested in selling the car.

I heard nothing so presumable the car was just left there to rot and the owner has finally moved it.

Anyway it made interesting discussion.

I believe I know who the owner of the car is and his house is in that street. I can't tell you why it was out there. I doubt he will sell it. I thought the family still drives it, but maybe hasn't for a while.

hey you know you can contact the owner if you like legally...you can try this with the cops but depends who you speak to if they can be bothered helping you...but you ring your RTA and tell them you need to contact the owner of this car and they will contact them for you and then they'll get back to you...this means they don't give you his/her details but you still get your msg across...i've done it once before with VICROADS

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
