There are some four doors for sale at dealers but they are asking top dollar for them

Yes a FOUR door GTS-T MANUAL - just want to be a bit different I have posted this request before but got no response, apart from people trying to push Automatics or R33 four doors - not interested I have seen them around, so somebody must know of one for sale... BTW I am in Sydney.

Thank you mr front mount - got my pics, looks very good

How many km's? Is the sunroof a factory one? Do you have still the factory steering wheel? What year model? How many owners in Australia? I'm not too knowledgable on Tiens but I assume they are they a coil over set up. Is the ride really hard with this set up?

Thanks GTST, but I believe that car - a white one in Brisbane with GTR grille and bonnet and posted by "Super 7" has been sold It was exactly what I wanted in terms of price, very few mods, stock appearance etc, but at the time I had not sold my other car. Can't understand why these things are so rare.

Still no 4 doors about?

I haven't seen that car in the attachment. I remember reading about the Chev powered racing car somewhere in my vast and dusty collection of rags. I think the same issue had something about the Toyota 7 V8 too. Lucas injection, hmmm - the mighty Prince (no pun intended ) of Darkness - didn't anybody trust Bosch in those days? Apart from Triumph, Maserati and Aston were crazy enough to opt for this system. Did the S20 motor in the GTR ever race with Hitachi injection? It is amazing how so few people outside Japan knew how advanced the Japanese were in the car field even 30 odd years ago. When one thinks about the rubbish the Australian car industry was churning out back then (not that it has improived a great deal in 2003) it is absolutely incredible...

Hey bwob, was the S20 GTR/432 engine related in any way to the Prince twin cam 2 litre six that was raced in the late 1960's? I think this racing car was called the R380 or something, and it might have been rebadged Nissan R380 after the takeover. In regard to brochures, do you have a spare KPGC10 or KPG10 brochure you want to sell, or know where I can get my hands on one? Maybe a colour copy/scan of one of yours ? I am serious.

For what it's worth, there are tests by Wheels Magazine and Sports Car World that have the triple Weber GT-B so it should have been sold here. It was listed in the new car prices at the back and you do see triple carbed B's for sale occasionally.

MegaGTS4, as far as I am aware the KGC10 Skylines (in other words the new shape from 1968 and the first Skyline to be badged as a Nissan from the start) was never fittedwith the G7 (Prince design) engine that was fitted to the previous shape Prince/Nissan Skyline GTB. I could be wrong but I thought that any 6 cylinder Skylines - with "P" for Prince in the model code to - from this model onward had the L20 series etc. A 2 litre SOHC GT or GTX (twin carbs - like the Jap spec 240Z motor) model hardtop or sedan made to look like a GTR can still command very good money in Japan if they are done right. If anyone say the last Performance Imports Skyline special edition magazine they would know what I mean. bwob, how foolish of me to have forgotten to mention the differences in wheelbase between the hardtop and the sedan for the pre 240K era Skyline! I believe that the 240K type GTR had rear disc brakes too. Does anyone know how many of these KGC10 Skylines (especially the tasty GTR) ever made it to Australia. They must be even rarer than stuff like the Toyota 1600GT - an official import by the way - less than 10 in Australia of them.

Does anyone make a 1:18 die cast R32 GTR, with out racing stickers? I have checked shops in Sydney but no luck.

I am no expert but I would imagine that your rather unique and enviable purchase has much much more in common with the 240K, as the 240K was the KGC10's immediate successor. Apparently the sedan version (not the twin cam s20 GTR) was exported to some wierd places like the Netherlands with the L24 engine -which made then unique as the car was never sold in Japan with more than 2 litres. As with the 240K, this generation of Skylines had IRS at the back if a 6 and rear leafs and a shorter body structure forward of the bonnet if a 4 cylinder. I have a road test or two of the 240K and Wheels Magazine mentioned that the setup, whilst similar on paper to the 240Z was quite different, and superior in some ways too, such as tail squat under acceleration. I know this is not much to go on, but I hope it helps. Having a L28 in your car makes sense as the S20 motor, whilst looking and sounding more exotic, probably is less robust, costs heaps to repair and parts would be mega expensive and hard to get - especially in sunny Perth! Just make sure you drive it on sparsely trafficked roads - you don't want some retard hitting you (touch wood), what with panels not exactly being thick on the ground. Sadly I would imagine there would be very little detailed technical info on these cars as they were not widely exported. Internet browser transaltion software will become a close friend, unless you read Japaneseor have a friend who does If you can post a piccie or two - that would be great.

Just wanted to clarify - I am interested in a FOUR DOOR R32. There are heaps of the 2 door GTS's around. Some people do consider the 2 door GTS's out there as being a (2 door) sedan.

As the subject says.. After an example that is stock in apperance, and any colour but black Cheers

Any about in Sydney and surrounding area? I am after a manual with stock appearance. Any colour but black. Thanks
