What is the model designation of the grey one with 26 inside?

It looks like a 1973 KPGC110 Skyline GTR....but considering the rarity of the genuine article, I think only 197 were built by Nissan, and what they are worth these days, around Au$100,000, it's unlikely this was the real deal! More likely it's a KGC110 GT variant. Basically the same as the 240K coupes we got in Australia.

The 1973 KPGC110 Skyline GTR used the S20 engine; 2litre crossflow twin cam 3x twin choke solex carbies ~160PS....and only sold in Japan.

Yes, I'm a bit of a nut about these, I'm lucky enough to have a 1972 KGC10 that's been built to look like the more desirable GTR or KPGC10. The first few pics are other .....interpretations I guess of the same model. If you are going to Goulburn for the Nationals I'll see you there :P

P.S. a little blue! the S20 pic is actually in '72 KPGC10 . reverse open bonnet.

    • 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
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
