if ever i can get my hands on more than one set i will offer them up on sau for people to purchase. but until then. jast a waiting (and looking) game. im still looking for a left one also talking to importers but not getting far. im doing a tour o' the wreckers during the christmas hols, so im hoping that will prove to be fruitful. :)

i also know of someone who wont sell thiers. another wasted. they dont seem to understand how rare they are :D:)

Ok on my quest to find tail-lights i stopped in at a nissan dealer in croydon vic. and met a guy called clayton angel. he goes a bit out of his way (even tho he is paid to) to hunt down new old stock for old cars. his position is in the parts division. i talked to him today about finding tail-lights and bumper ends. bumper ends for a c210/c211 are $170 each new.

for the tail-lights i need to know the vin no. of a car that originally came off so i he can send back to japan requesting the correct part no. and then order the parts. as someone else said previously they're around $250 each and by the looks of things i think that sounds about right.

This is his work contact details for anyone who is hunting Most early nissan and datsun parts.

Cool. I was just at a Nissan dealer for some (bloody expensive) bushes... dont really need anything but if its NOS then it's worth having just to be all shiny and NEW. :) I will ask around in Japan for your enigmatic LHS tail light.

Take note that those are only the light units to replace stock JDM C210 lenses (no surround as shown on box). They appear to be aftermarket "tinted" lenses...

BTW, unfortunately I never heard a reply back from Yarra Valley.

      Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?

      thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...

      Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.

      Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
