sounds very interesting. I'm not up on all the models available in the R30 range, but I know there was no GTR in the Nissan line-up from 1973 (KPGC110) to whenever the R32 GTR was produced - 1989?. So definitely no GTR model in the R30 range.

I would also very much doubt that your car was released with a single nut hub assembly as original equipment. Do you have a pic of one of these wheels?

what i need help with is Ive only got 3 mags and its missing the centre wheel adaptor there the same as super tourers use

I was asking for a pic of the wheel because I thought it might help someone locate another, which is what you seem to be after. But it's a little unclear - what's "the centre wheel adapter" that's missing?

there was no R30 GTR, and I know of no homologation special for the R30. There was a GTS-R homologation version of the R31 for GroupA touring car racing, however. The R30 L20ET models had GT-ES badges.

pics of hubs and car would be a big help??? sounds to me like you may have got your hands on either a very rear car or an ex race car!

is it an ex race car?

here's the Gibson Motorsport Group A tourng car DR30. They ran the 4 stud pattern back then, but that's not to say all the cars of the era did, or that they weren't changed by a subsequent owner.

Julie,

I have the Nissan sales brochure for all R30 models marketed and there is no mention of a GTR in it. It is a well documented fact that the GTR models dissappeared between KPGC110 & R32.

But let's just look at your vehicle description.

L20? ... is it 4 or 6 cylinder? DET ... this terminology is usually for DOUBLE overhead cam ELECTRONIC ignition TURBO induction.

The only L series DOHC cylinder heads that I know of were 1. the old 4 cyl formula pacific homologation fitted to the now famous TOMICA Skyline SS pic below and 2. The 6 cyl head fabricated by OS Giken for Paul Newman's successful assault on the USTCC in the 80's, but to my knowledge none of these engines were turbo'd and available for road use.

But if you have what you say, I'm sure I can speak for everyone here at SAU that we would be more than very interested in all pictures, specifications and any other details you have on it, as it would be the rarest of all R30 models.

Thats not her car Ghostrider.  That's a blokes from Port Macquarie.  My car is parked in front of it.  That picture was taken on a FJ20 cruise to the Haven at Terrigal.

That's cool, but I think it's more the type of car she is talking about.

Something I find interesting is, it's now after midday AEST, or about 11 in the west and she has put up ZERO response to all the requests for more details and or correct directions to the picture she says exists.

At the risk of getting egg on my face, maybe she is all hot air and it's not an R30 at all.

      r34's love to squeal

      By Nizzy_R34 · Posted

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
