try this guy,

jeff, nis-power on 5559-2222, he's in carrara just off the high way.

i know he might have most of what you need,

the rear calipars are the same as the MR30 aus version, he'll have second hand brake cables, if you want new ones i know a place just across from harbour town that will make them for $55 each.

I have an MR30 Hatch just about to go to the TIP and it has a complete stock HR30 rear end if your interested.

Don't know Adam, but RSX84 suggests Pioneer Coaches might be pretty cheap if your interested.

I just listed the complete body as the body/engine number holds an engineers report for a/mkt turbo application.

PM me if your interested in this or me acquiring lower control arms hear as any hatch is identical to yours.

Cheers,

Hey Ghostrider,

What diff do you have there and how much do you want for it?

It's only an R180 Open Diff 3.9:1, I kept the 3.9:1 LSD for a spare, but it may go up for grabs a bit later, but you would need to get in line for any R200 LSD on this forum. They can't be bought for less than a grand these days as they are getting very rare. The R180 if you want it has only done 60k so keep me informed.

The decision to scrap it will be made this weekend, so the rear calipers & handbrake cables etc will be available, if you don't get new ones in the mean time.

Cheers,

Dennis

RSX84,

Whats the name of the place near Harbour Town for the hand brake cables?

Cheers

Michael  :O

Adam,

I'm not leaving this body sit here forever, if no one takes up the offer by Saturday it's going.

If you want the rear arms let me know and you can have 'em.

Cheers,

Dennis

any idea on what freight to Adelaide would be on the rear arms to Adelaide?  I've bent something, possibly the rhs rear arm

Yeah that would be great, I was just going to keep quiet about it as I'd rather see someone take the entire car off your hands and rebuild it than take a few bits off it and scrap it, but if no-one buys it the arms, particularly the rhs would be useful to me.

Is the bit that bolts the diff onto the shell the same on a wagon as my coupe? I may have bent that, I pushed the car backwards out the shed and while that exaservated the toe out on the right rear (its jacked the car up on that side pretty much) the left rear wheel has pushed out at the back a bit, so either I was running toe in on the back before I smacked the right side, and its that toe in which is making the left wheel pop out a bit when I pushed it backwards, OR I've knocked the diff across... I didnt think that was possible, especially given that it wasnt an overly hard 'crash' (hairpin on a dirt/gravel road, swung out slightly too far and put the right rear into the dirt embankment on the side of the road) but atm it looks like the left wheel is sitting out, right wheel is sitting in, though it could just be the result of the current alignment and me pushing it backwards

Dennis,

I dont mind that its an open wheeler. Im realy just chasing one incase mine goes BANG. I found the rear calipers but I might still need those handbrake cables. Just name the price as I have to get my car back on the road, I'm having major withdrawls from not driving it.

Thanks again

The R30 Van/Wagon has a different rear end set up entirely to our coupes, it has a live rear axle as well.

The bit your talking about??? is it the diff support, looks a bit like a spring or the cross member the trailing arms mount to???

Maybe you have bent the 2 posts the rear support slides on to or sheered some bolts off, as thats the only way I could see the diff moving.

But I shipped a complete rear end assembly for about $70 along with a couple of gearboxes etc to Adelaide a couple of years back and freight rates are only about $50/tonne. The rear end would be cubic, but still I can't see it costing that much.

Are bits that hard to get over there in SA.

Cheers,

Dennis

Just want to know if they have rear arms and the bit the arms bolt on to... may have bent an arm, may have bent the brackets

The bit the arms bolt on to is the rear cross member. The pivot points are welded to the cross member.

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
