  1. Don't know if this is the right area to post an ad for my MR30 that I am selling.. If it isn't can someone help me. Will load some pics and description when I find out. Or it is on Ebay now.
  2. Where is the needle roller bearing? I can't see one either in my caliper or in the workshop manual... What am I missing here (or misreading?)- Rob. Thanks for the info re Z31, Have a Nissan wrecker that sponsors my 240Z.better pay him a visit with a spanner or twoo.... ha ha ha >
  3. Hi all............. I have an r30 sedan with an L28 in it as mentioned before... It has an r30 hatch rear in it (ie disc brake rears) but I have a problem. The drivers side rear was jammed on, so I have pulled the caliper off and dismantled it and will purchase a rebuild kit to redo all the seals etc. I have a couple of questions for you learned folk.... 1).. Anyone got a spare caliper that works that they would like to offload to me (say from someone who has upgraded their rear end..) 2) Are the rear brakes the same as anything else (with the integrated handbrake) that may substitute? 3) (and I am sure this has been asked and answered before but I will ask again cos I'm dumb)..Is there an easy swap with a stronger more effective rear disc conversion that will give a better grip when using a hydraulic handbrake. I havent plumbed the hydraulic in yet but have heard that the rear discs aren't powerful enough to be effective. 4)aNYONE HAVE AN EASY WAY TO GET A BIT MORE NEGATIVE CAMBER IN THE FRONT..damn caps locks..) ie a swap of control arms with something else....(datsun lego?) Thanks in anticipation.... Buggsy.
  4. Oh well, I contacted Garage 7 and the Excel shocks WERE $199.00 a pair but have had a price rise to over $ 275.00 a pair... Will have to keep looking I think... Anyway thanks again... Buggsy.
  5. Thanks everyone. That is the info I need. I will contact them re shocks. I had heard that the rears were the same as R31's but when i looked up a Monroe catalogue, they had different part numbers. Anyway thanks again... better get some pics of our khahnacross weapon up here eh? Buggsy.
  6. I have noted here that Daewoo has not had the courage to post why he had no throttle response in his Skyline... I won't let any secrets out, other than to say that after pulling the manifold back off he "discovered " the problem... When he gets back from NZ he may reply... That photo of the sedan with the fully sick wing is my pride and joy. Buggsy.
  7. Thanks for that. I know Daewoo... We rallied together both in his 1600 and my Zed......I'll check it out. Buggsy.
  8. Hi all. I have only just joined today and I hope this post is where it should be... If not, sorry and I'm sure someone will set me straight. My names Rob and I have just bought my son an MR30 sedan to do motorsport stuff in. I have a rally 240Z and was attracted to the Skyline cos I sort of understand Dattos and the Skyline was cheap and I could just stick a 2.8 280ZX motor in it.. We have run it once at a club khanacross but the shocks are ...well, not very functional .... Does anyone know where I can get some cheap shocks ? Are they an orphan type that arent like R31s at all...? Can I fit some out of something else? It is a cheap car $500.00 and I haven't got the funds to source Bilsteins or Konis and really for what we are using the car for at the moment.. some gas shocks would be fine.... Hoping someone can help here....and thanks for having me..
