This is my Paul Newman Version, as it was purchased.

I have been told it's unique in Australia as it's a signature series.

2 tone paint with the signature on the lower front wheel arch.

From all the pics of the other cars in Australia I am yet to see one the same as this.

TO ALL THE SPY'S

Have you seen another??????? and if so where?

Thanks Jono,

I know of this one, it's all over white and lives in Canberra these days and owned by a guy named Zeb.

We have conversed on a number of occassions.

There is a 4Dr in Qld and George Bryant's in NZ plus mine of coarse.

Last time I did the rounds I think we found existence of 5 maybe, but wasn't very many.

Thanks.

My friend who lived in the house behind mine bought a PNV on almost exactly the same day I bought my DR lol.

His was mint, all white, silver and black interior and it had the signatures

Adam,

Where is the car today?

Can you get him to or can you put all his information Year Model, Build Date, Chassis Number, Model designation, Colour codes, Trim code,

Engine number, rego number and where it is today with a contact number if possible, as this is #4 in OZ that I can find knowledge on.

He sold it because he's a douche... Bought an Integra because the Skyline was "too expensive to run".... then the Intergra was stuffed so he bought a CA18DE Silvia with a stuffed engine.... put a bloody SR20DET in it then sold it because it was rubbish, and finally bought a MX5 Clubman. The Skyline was way better than any of the others (except maybe the MX5)

I've got a feeling it was an 85, it would just have a PNV coupe model code, same paint code as my car, trim code would be the same as Zapata's car.

Does SA have the same privacy laws as we do in NSW where you cant trace the car through the rego.

Does it still reside in SA and do you see it around, as it would be nice to have all it's facts on my register.

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
