Here are some piccies of the day to share. http://s267.photobucket.com/albums/ii288/lidm/2012jccs/

C130 quite expensive for what they are but they look pretty great and would be extremely rare here in Aus. I have not heard of a single one. For a PROJECT CAR, it will be quite difficult as parts are expensive and will all have to be purchased from Japan. C110 you would only really want to import a very nice one I reckon, as you can essentially buy the same car here in the guise of a 240k and go from there. C110 is the sensible choice out of hte two options you have given!

Good work..! The black overfenders look pretty good next to your dark grey colour. What will you do for the rear beaver panel though? Not sure about the rubber around the fenders to be honest - more Torana than Skyline imo but looks like you're having fun putting it all back together!

It all depends on what model JDM car you are trying to emulate.....

Can't seem to edit ... sorry this is of course N15 not N14

Selling for a friend 1999 Q-Spec N14 Pulsar Manual 137,000kms ONE OWNER CAR, excellent condition No modifications - still with original nissan floor mats Comes with all receipts including receipt of purchase Religiously serviced Very reliable, practical and economical. Low kms for age. Selling as we need a larger car for the kids. Sold with RWC, $5800 take it away Call Roland on 0409 505 804

Looks pretty nice actually! Mmmm smooth straight sides... 197 KPGC110 GT-R's were made. But yeah, Swiper would be right this is most likely a run-of-the-mill 2000GT or GT-X.

It has a reserve price. It does look nice though.

The Arabs got to you?

Actually, they never put the L28 in any of the C10 Skylines.

We have some comedians that's all. $2000 - $3000. Advertise for 4 if you're feeling lucky.

Hey mate. Sorry, it has been sold.

Yes, they are from a C110 "JDM" Skyline. It's from a short wheel base G16-powered (1.6 litre 4 cyl) sedan.

This one.

I was surprised too it went for that much! Looks like it needs quite a bit of TLC from the pictures, but maybe apart from the paint it was really good. Hard to tell without inspecting eh.

"All this interest" ... well you are on a Classic Skylines forum here! There is interest here. There is still not all that much interest in Australia as a whole though. Think of all the little crapbox Mazdas that no one wanted in the 80s and 90s - now they're worth heaps as everyone is scrambling to get one. Same deal, they've just reached that magic 30 year age. In reality, they're still worth very little. There is really not much interest compared with other Japanese classics.

Erm, why? Looks like it still had some good parts on it.

The gold C110 is awesome. It was originally on eBay up on the Gold Coast but got taken off early. Now it's down there for a fairly large sum of money (for a stock 240K). Depends how much you want a good original 240K though. Not many people do, which kinda explains why it's been for sale for a long time. If it was in Japan it'd be snapped up in a minute.

Have you tried the "kick him in the face" button?

Awesome, Kameari's fibreglass items I got were excellent quality - just paint and fit! Hopefully it'll be the same for you. I had front and rear spoilers shipped with flares so they CAN do it. I guess it is just the money factor at the end of the day. You might be able to get something similar here for less. I'm glad you're going about the right way with this. Too many people are scared to spend any money on these cars but you're changing all that! Good on you I don't think any other Nissan would have exactly the same bumpers but I think the most similar would be the later 200B with the big bumpers. Thought about running no bumpers?

Are you going to modify C110 flares to fit or are they specially moulded flares to fit C210?

That's a really cool brochure DR JOSH. Yes, ebay is a great place to find those rare JDM brochures.

They do 'em FAST in UAE... I saw a 700 HP one while in Dubai.

FOR SALE: 1973 Nissan Skyline GT-R Replica (Datsun 240K) It is with great regret I have to sell this car that has been my passion for the last three years. I acquired this immaculate car in early 2003 from its original owner. She was given the car for her 60th birthday from her mother, and then at 90 decided she might like a new car. Thanks to her, the car was in amazing condition when I got it. Easily the best I have ever seen. An ideal candidate for a transformation into what it is today - something quite entirely different. I must thank all who have helped, especially Alan Thomas whom without his guidane this could have never happened! I will give a brief overview of most of the things that I've done, but I'm sure I will have forgotten something. Specifications: - October 1973 Built, Australian-delivered Datsun 240K 2-Door Hardtop (KHGC110-003929) - I am the second owner. - Odometer reads about 22,000km (5 digit, it has rolled over at least once) - Original matching-numbers L24 engine (entire drivetrain is much the same as 240Z/240C, so parts are easily obtainable) - An early build, it has all the same "bits" as a GT-R (interior vents, rear bumper reflectors, etc.) Other Details: - Overfenders & spoilers from Kameari Engine Works, painted and fitted at time of full respray (not in boot, bonnet etc., but car has always been white) - JDM Skyline GT-R Tail Lights + GT-R chrome rings (very rare!! Only just bought them) - NOS rear bumper, front bumper, GT-R Skyline Badging (all badges were new, but some paint has flaked off the 'R' front and back), numberplate lights, dash vents, rear beaver panel, door latch, etc. (small parts here and there) - GT-R badging includes front GT-R badge, Rear Quarter Skyline badges, Rear Quarter “GT” red badges, Quarter vents restored, rear panel Skyline and GT-R badges, interior “Skyline” dash badge. ALL proper C110 items, all new. No shortcuts. - Front GT-R fibreglass grille (needs respray) - All stainless steel trim recently repaired and polished - Brushed aluminium dash panel (like GT-R) - Brushed aluminium centre console inserts (not installed, but easily done) - Authentic Watanabe RS-8 wheels Type A 14x7.5J and Type R 14x9J, repainted and polished & Watanabe centre caps & Watanabe lug nuts (comes with lock nuts too) - New shocks, springs and tyres mid-2005 (low but practical) - Minor rust removed from right dogleg, rear right wheel well, rear left wheel well and under windscreen (all common areas) – there are still a few areas that need attention, no structural rust. Front right fender and behind left wheel well have crows feet a bit. - GT-R Fender mirrors (original mirror position welded up) - Lower side chrome strips removed, welded and painted for GT-R look - Converted from automatic to 5-speed with heavy duty 280ZX clutch + Japanese C110-style aluminium gear knob - Dual Hitachi carbs from 240Z - Reconditioned radiator last year - Electronic Ignition + New Coil + Leads + Plugs a couple of months ago - New Oil Pressure Sender this week - Recon'd 5-speed gearbox this week - Alarm + central locking + Immobiliser - 2.25" Exhaust from manifold back, with single Lukey muffler at the end (extractors possibly) - New front windscreen early last year - New rear wheel cylinders & Front brake pads early this year - Nardi 360mm Steering Wheel Also comes with: - 240K Service Manual, KPGC110 Service Manual, and a few books, magazines etc. negotiable. - Spare RHS window (you never know when you might need to replace it...) - Front brake upgrade (Hilux calipers, Accord discs ("bolt-on" upgrade)) - And heaps of other spares... The interior is in amazing condition, except has a small (3cm) rip in the lower side of the driver's seat, and a crack in the dash (can get redone for $300). Everything's original or has been replaced with NOS parts. I've only used it for driving around so didn't need a serious race interior, but Nissan did offer a Sports Option part colloquially called a “Datsun Bucket”, which is similarly styled and provides much more support if you do want to drive seriously - and is period correct. Exterior is amazingly straight - but as you'd expect it is not perfect. Worst panel is probably the front left fender, which has a couple of minor dings from doors. You can't really notice unless someone points it out though. There is a bit of rust that has started to rear its ugly head. Other bad bits... someone bumped into the left fender mirror and took some paint off the fender, it needs to be sanded back and tuoched up. All pretty minor things that I just haven't got around to doing yet. The beauty of this car is that even though it is very rare in its current guise, it's still as reliable as any Datsun. Unfortunately I'm moving to a new job in Melbourne in January, and just can’t justify owning the car that has honestly been the major part of my life since I got it. I've seen many C110s but to be frank, I haven’t seen a better example - which is why I chose this one as an ideal candidate. A true case of the "little old lady" car, I don't expect to ever find one like it again. The odometer is only 5 digits and was at about 80,000 when I got it, so I’m not sure if that meant 80,000km or 180,000km, but for a car of this age it has minor importance. I do not know of any other good completed replicas outside of Japan. It’s amazing how many people stop and stare - it's definitely not for the timid. Ideally, I'd like to put in a mild L28 so that it had more performance to match the looks, but I am satisfied with it as it is and it keeps me out of trouble. I have lowered my asking price to $14,000 AUD, which is a fraction of what's gone into it. Offers ok. PM, email or phone on home: (07) 55 279 002 / mob: 0402 506 902. Picture 1 Picture 2 Picture 3 Picture 4 Picture 5 Picture 6 Picture 7 Located Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. Willing to deal with overseas buyers if you are serious.

That'll be Sasha's car , I can't remember if he sold it or not though
