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.

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
