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

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
