Hey guys, first off im sincerly sorry if there is a specific WTB section but anyway.

I am chasing a Skyline as mentioned above in "project" condition so something that might need work done to it but not something that has gone to far with rust! I dont mind Rust aslong as its not to extensive or hidden by bog (the worst type).

HR31 - coupe

DR30 - coupe (mabey sedan)

C210/11 - coupe or sedan

240K - coupe or sedan

And although not a Skyline a later model 260C (ones with "notched" rear doors)

Current offer is $2500 max but this is subjected to change and will be update accordingly, I do understand the rarity but then again im not looking for something in show room or original condition im just chasing a good, honest base for a project.

thanks!

For that money there are some lovely 240/260C's on ebay at the moment well within budget. 240ks are going for crazy money - far more than $2,500 for a project. C210/c211 are hard to find, but not crazily priced if you get lucky.

I don't know about the modern stuff you mention.

Ahh yeah, you need to have more posts, woops

Just seen the owner lists as being in SE Melbourne... that could be a problem.... Considering last year i had to give up on a 260z because i could get it from Mackay to Roma QLD (were i live).

hmm bummer! got excited to!

If you include shipping from Vic etc, with a $2500 budget that doesn't leave a lot of car! You really get punished for shipping non-drivers, as you need a flatbed rather than a car carrier.

Ceva logistics were the best I dealt with from memory.

Well yea shipping cost and well i would like to see it with my own eyes before i had over cash... Especially after I bought a VJ valiant ute with the discription of being only a few rust whole,vwas a 15hr trip up and back with a shitty trailer only to find the next day it had a half inch and in some spots a inch thick shell of bog with alot of bad structral (?) rust...

Paid $1600 re-sold it for $750 3 weeks later, couldnt stand looking at it... So I'm really iffy with older cars now.

  • 2 weeks later...
  • 1 year later...

    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
    • Well, I had an Edward Lee's special edition odo windback car/motor with a RB25DET S2 and I put down 372kW with a good amount of track abuse for 1.5 years before the ring lands decided it didn't want to stick around anymore 🥲 But probably didn't help I kept on smashing try limiter on the track and a few skid pans.
