Hi everyone. I have an 84 R30 skyline(not tokico Master Cylinder) with disc fronts and drum rears. My brake master cylinder has failed and apparently my only option is to sleeve and rebuild it. I was wondering if there is a simple 'bolt in' upgrade?(from searching the R32 MC seems to fit, but I am not sure if it needs any modification to do so). Seeing as I am going to have to spend a couple of hundred to rebuild the cylinder anyway I figure I may as well upgrade if it doesn't require much more effort. Cheers Michael

Hi all, Postage is apparently from Japan and hell expensive but I thought I would just post links in case anyone is interested http://cgi.ebay.com.au/DATSUN-240Z-260Z-280Z-NISSAN-SKYLINE-R30-PATROL-240C-/390305229228?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5ae00129ac http://cgi.ebay.com.au/DATSUN-240Z-260Z-280Z-NISSAN-SKYLINE-R30-PATROL-240C-/390305230052?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item5ae0012ce4 Cheers Michael

Welcome This might be worth a read for you. It is for a 280z but the EFI is very similar http://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/efisystem/280zfuelinjectionbook.pdf Cheers Michael

If you are looking for turbo gear for an R30 in WA, this may be worth a look http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Turbo-and-frountmount-R30-1982-Skyline-unlic-/180605756741?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_15&hash=item2a0cf12545

I am not sure if Andrew is refering to my car, but I also have a 72 degree camshaft by Stewart Wilkins in my car which he drove a few months ago. Does go pretty hard, especially now I have advanced the ignition timing a bit. Just a word of caution though, since I have put in the new cam I have been having troubles with low manifold vacuum screwing with the brakes. I am trying to sort a vacuum canister atm to try and fix my problem. Will post results when I get it sorted if anyone is interested?

Title says it all really. Anyone have a set?

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/DATSUN-NISSAN-SKYLI...cessoriesAnyone have any idea wether these bolt straight up to an MR30 as well or are the caliper mounts different?

I don't think it is the TI but it is brown so I am not sure Ok, I shall give them a ring. Thanks Ghostrider.

Hi Everyone, Some moron smashed into my car and busted up the rear bumper. Does anyone have one they want to sell? Brown is colour of preference but I am not too concerned. Cheers Michael

Why sell the N/A 25 to put a turbo RB30 in? There was no RB30ET nissan's produced either. It would be easiest(and closest to original) to get a cam regrind to GTS specs and an aftermarket exhaust........

I willing to be corrected here but I wasn't aware of any R31's that came with an RB25......... If it has all it's compliances etc done 7k maybe?(though once again, willing to be corrected)

Still got MT4 and R30. Will get to it when I get some time and money(soon hopefully ). Is it true you now have a DR30? And the falcon's diff is now fixed! It didn't actually need to be rebuilt, it just needed some sealant on the thread to stop it leaking out the thread/spline after the seal had been replaced.

Took the car and got the pinion seal replaced. It still leaks and will most likely have to be re-built . Throw me an offer if your interested.....

Pics please Also, if anyone is interested in pics of the XR6 pm and I will email

For sale: 1997 EL Falcon XR6 *Body-352000km *Engine replace and diff reco about 120000km ago The good: *4 brand new tyres *New radiator, fuel filter and front rotors *aftermarket exhaust *Made ACT roadworthy a couple of weeks ago, thinking that the certificate may expire before the transfer is completed, but in any case shouldn't be hard to get another one. *Comes with stock exhaust, spare distributor and two tyres at about 40% each The bad: *Small piece of surface rust on the roof(about the size of a 50c piece). Can be fixed with touch up paint. *Tyres rub on the arm. I have been told that this may be able to be corrected with a wheel alignment and it is not a big deal. *slight fluid leak from the diff *came with a little front end cosmetic and headlight damage. I have repaired a majority of this inc a replacement set of LHS headlights PM me for pics as I am having trouble uploading them. Bought this about a month ago as a replacement for my MR30 skyline, but after driving my MR30 on the weekend have actually decided I like the skyline better, and would prefer to upgrade to another R30/R31 instead. Keen for swaps with an R30 or preferably an R31 manual(ideally R31 silhouette, relatively stock) with low k's with cash adjustment but let me know what you have! Other than that, if you want to buy it outright I am chasing around 4K neg. Located ACT/Southern Highlands

Sorry mate, it's a sedan. That is a very nice silhouette by the way

Ok, IT moron. Why won't it let me upload pictures?

Throwing this up in here in the hope of getting this done close to home.

Yeah, looking for the discs as an upgrade for the rear drums I'm just asking the question because R31 discs(around canberra anyway) are a hell of a lot easier to find than R30 discs

Will R31 rear discs go onto a MR30 sedan with no modification? I have heard from some people that they absolutely will, others telling me that you have to switch the left and right over and then others that tell me there is no possibility of them fitting without machining work....... Very confused......

This seems like a rather appropriate thread to post this in. The South African's take their car security very seriously http://www.cnn.com/WORLD/africa/9812/11/flame.thrower.car/

Hey everyone, Since I believe it's my first post of the new year hope you all had a great Christmas/New Years. Did anybody get a DR30 in their stocking? Anyway, has anyone ever installed a Microtech MT-4 into an R30 L24E(currently N/A)? Would like to get it in the car and running before I get to the turbo which won't be for about 6 months, but I don't really want to pay $500+ to get it dyno tuned until I get it running decent boost. Is getting it dyno tuned the only real option or is their another way thats a bit cheaper? What's the go for legality/insurance with aftermarket ECUs? A bloke told me the other day you have to get it emmissions certified which is like 5k Also does anyone have a plug/loom and laptop adapter for an MT-4 Microtech that they would be willing to sell me as I currently only have the ECU unit itself. Michael
