hey. been looking around these forums for a fair while, but never actually signed up. anyways, i thought it was about time.

I just bought a c210 skyline coupe.

was wondering what can be done to the L24 to give it a bit more poke..

Still gotta get the car past rego sometime within the next few weeks (which shouldnt be too hard..) but after that it will be an ongoing project.

here are a few pics..

I used to have one of those in "Jaffa" orange.

Rust in those are a bugger (especially around the rear wheel arches and boot) but mine was very reliable. I remember I bought the last new old stock window rubbers for the rear windows from Nissan Australia. It really suprised me how many old parts Nissan Australia still carries.

All it needs is a RB25 DET and they would be great!

well hello long time no see :lol:

i seen this beast in the flesh and as for the rust it aint that bad just the sills under the door well if there were a rear door that is and a bit in the boot rubber near the lock.

needs the window seals though.

i gotta say for a car made in 77 it has the lot, gotta love the stock boost guage even though it aint boosted :lol:

i would say a set of xtractors for sure and a decent zorst, and a bigger carby.

keep us updated Jono

anyone got any idea where to get the rubbers between the windows??

I got a set 8 years ago from Nissan Australia and that was the last set in NSW but if you ask nicely maybe they still have set interstate?

I also managed to get some rare alloy wheel centre covers for another old Nissan a couple of years back which they managed to supply. You never know what they ahve in their warehouses. If not try Rare Spares (I think American Autoparts in Sydney are their agents now). Otherwise the wreckers yards or ebay.

Good luck

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
