Just remember only a relatively small number go through the auction houses. It is the car yards/dealers and private market that you need to be looking at in Japan to open your options up....there are always heaps of KGC10's for sale in Japan through the yards. GT-R's are out there too with a good 15-20+ for sale at any given time through the yards also....

What are you after???

that's why I'd want to discuss my options with somebody who really knows the market and specializes in older cars... Japanese restorations can be a bit hit and miss

I'm open to anything really... just something that has been done really well at a reasonable price... wouldn't want to be spending much over 30K so nothing really collectable... I like the GTR mock ups but not sure a good one would fall within my budget

what about z cars, 240's etc... I see a few floating around in Aus but nothing that really interests me... the 240's are pretty collectable now so maybe out of my budget

sorry gone a bit OT, I'll stop whoring this up now :cheers:

I'm surprised the C110 Coupe only fetched 6ish when the 4 door went for just over 10k. Who knows though...

This 4 door up at the moment is VERY clean and rego'd too. I reckon it will go for a song.

Yeah I was going to bid at $6500 but got called into a meeting at the wrong time.

If you mean the gold 4 door for sale ATM I was led to believe it's a dog?

um..i guess all the $$ went into engineering the rear wing. WTF

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
