I just took the back plate of my spare diff. This diff came out of a 4 door C210. Inside the diff on the largest ring were the numbers 39 in gold colour writing. Am I right in assuming it is a 3.90 geared diff. Also K 11 was stamped on it internally. Was 3.90 a common gearing for this model.

Just put 70 seconds of footage on You Tube. It ain't great, and I'm not doing it again. It took 1 1/2 hours to upload, kinda ridiculous. If interested in looking you'll find it under L28 C210. I actually put it in with bloody aeroplanes. C210 must be some kind of light plane. Oh well

Hi Dodgsun, Does this have disc rear end and what diff ratio is it. Also is it man or auto? I've read this stuff bolts straight up to the C210, but would like to know for sure. What's the all round suspension like as mine needs front and back replaced. Ricky

Yeah Drew your right. That idea has past. If I can't find decent bumpers I'll just panel beat mine and maybe colour code them rather than chrome.

Gee ,you could'nt send me back some 78 GC210 skyline flared guards could you ? Credit card waiting just a bit of wishful thinking. For 5 weeks now I've been emailing to and fro with Kamaeri in Japan but the translation is playing havoc. So frustrating

MSG Sent, Cheers. If the bumpers are any good I'll slip you a finders fee.

Hope this doesn't sound to crued,but I'd go shares in it if I could purchase the parts I'm after. Those parts being bumpers x2 and door skins. Willing to pay a valid amount. Harvo, did it come out with the manual? I'm taking it is a manual looking at the pics.

Firstly, thanks for your help so far guys. I'm slowly closing the gap to these parts. I got another email from Shigeo Mori at kamaeari today asking if I needed the pricing in AUS dollars,even if it does cost $490 I'm going to get them as they really change the look of the cars stance. Noddle, I'll try what you've mentioned as like you say, can't do any harm. Cheers

About 4 weeks ago I sent an email to the Kameari web site. I've just had an email from Shigeo Mori telling me he can supply the items I'm after BUT! it says: Overfender for GC 210 %%%%% Overseas speed mail %%%%% Total %%%%% These percent icons on my email are actually those little squares you get on Jap web pages. I'm guessing the amounts must be in Japanese and not translating in the email. Help!!!

Does anyone know a direct avenue to sourcing flares for my C210 coupe. You look at these old school dattos' in Japan and every second car has got them. Surely some import company can source these and post them to Aus, or is it just to smaller item for them to care about. Does anyone know a ph. number of someone who makes them here in Aus? Yours desperately Ricky. I'll even pay a finders fee if someone (private, not a business) can put me onto something solid, but they must be for the C210 coupe

How do you convert sites such as USS auctions into english? excuse my ignorance but I'd really like to be able to scroll through Yahoo Japan and Kamaerie. Do I need to down load stuff or buy software . I was in my local Japanese restaurant today and I was so close to asking them to come around to my house ( for a fee of course) and find what I'm looking for ( flares to suit my C210 coupe). Need help. Ricky

Nigel, those flares on ebay.au were purchased by my friend Shane here in W.A. Cost him $400 all up. The ones I was looking at were same mould and from the same person. Thankfully i waited till Shanes arrived ( yesterday), but they are NOT contoured to fit a C210 coupe even remotely. So the hunt goes on.My friend will probably put them back on ebay. Maybe they'll fit a C110,who knows. Guess that's the downside of buying unseen (physically).

Nigel, don't suppose you've got a 2 dor pic. I'm guessing the 4door is different to the coupe?

Have been offered flared gaurds ( over riders ) or what ever you call them. They're $ 400. Is this a good price? and they were to suit a C110, but I gather they'll suit the C210.

Brought my old mags back, was going to go wider but decided I still like the look of these. So for now this is how it'll look. Soughting out my carby linkage nextweek ,so hoping to run the quarter mile within the next three weeks.

Just finished painting mine, yet to be cut/polished

thanks RASCOV500, It was worth the effort. Next plan is to see what it can do over the quarter. We have a Whoopass Wednesday here in Perth. you can take your street cars to Motorplex for a small admission and have a few runs, all professional like.

VSPEC thanks for the info, I'll try the A9X over riders first and if no joy there I'll try slidewize.If any W.A members no of a decent rear bumper, I'd like to know otherwise I'll rip the chrome of and paint it white.

Yeah VSPEC32, that's exactly what I'm after. I don 't like my chances of finding them here in Aus. The guy who gave me the air dam also has some A9x bolt on guards and I'm going to check out how they fit and look on my 210. Has anyone seen these overriders for sale anywhere? Ricky.

thanks Drew, yea I'm pretty happy with the outcome. I need to get some decent feet on it also . Whats the biggest rim you can get under those arches?

Back end together, obviously bumpers still off. Hopefully tomorrow i'll get all the chrome bits on. Going to wait 2 weeks before putting a shine on the paint.

Finally it's done. Will post better pics when I can wheel it outside.

1320kg, lookin wikipedia. There's heaps on skylines there

Attached the air dam and filled all the pot rivet holes

Primer filler on, my wife has the worst headache ever from fuming. Guess you gotta take the good with the bad. My mates compressor worked itself so hard it hemoraged oil. I think a bigger compressor for the top coat will be required
