The C210/C211 classification of skyline came out in japan with the obligatory stovetop tail lights. But in the UK and Australia we got ugly rectangle tailights. They came as a 2 door pillarless coupe , stationwagon(called estate) and sedan. They also came out with varying models including : 280D GT 2000GT ES 2000 Ti ES 1600 Ti (L16 100 PS / 6000 rpm) 1800Ti EX (L18E 115 PS / 6200 rpm) 1800Ti EL Ti 2000GT (L20 115 PS / 5600 rpm) 2000GT EX (L20ET 145 PS / 5600 rpm ) 2000GT EL NAPS 2000 TURBO 240K GT

So far here's what I have got M/D/H R 30 front struts and brakes are a straight bolt on affair Providing you have the cv joint rear end in your C210/C211 R30 rear swing arms and disc brakes are a straight bolt on. L20et turbo gear(manifolds/turbo/plumbing/ECU) is a bolt on upgrade. L26/L28 eingines bolt stright in and will also accept turbo set up from L20et Ld28 crank in an L28 with a 60 thou over bore will create an L30.

This Thread is for any info we can find regarding factory specifications, Factory/Dealer options and variations. I have been looking for ages and I can't find any online info on these apart from Japanese enthuiast sites which dont seem to offer much if any tech info. I will edit this thread every now and then and remove any comments not relating to the above, and update any info obtained. Thanks Jason aka V8skylineMAN

SOCA Skyline Owners Club of Australia nsa is good tho

I've seen r33 gt-r's without brembo calipers, and every gt-r ive seen with the extra lip was a v spec.......if im wrong, im wrong. Im just going by what i know to be correct at the time.

easiest way is to bolt 5mmx50mm steel across ur original seat runners....just measure and drill to suit them....then measure and drill the bars you just fitted to your rails to suit the seats....no mod plate needed....if u mod ur mounting point on the car u will need to get a mod plate to make it legal

Vspec has a small lip under the rear wing, and also has BREMBO calipers not nissan other than that.......^^^what they said^^^

SAW THIS CAR ON THE NEWS tonight...it was used for a botched bank robbry and dumped...looks in A1 nick...wasnt trashed or anything cops have got it now so hopefully u get it back

cant ushop either.....donated early this week....lil help?

Yeah there is a guy on the forums...warps he is called....he bought the leyland v8 powered 240k/skylineC110 he lives just up the road from me as u know i have a holden(sh!t)v8 powered 240/skylineC210 coupe

Saw MELV minus his front bar on sunday just gone( might have been saturday) just near coomera station......how dare u drive your GT-R with bits off!

Funny that, UAS said the same thing......I worked there for a *VERY* short time. Will be working there again real soon all going well.

no kpgc210/211 dammit

you will need to put a bar thru the lower control arm somewhere and lever it down so that the strut clears it....that should prolly do what u need

Well....LMFAO at the post by prank why? cos in it he says that we have a new front end...cos the "old" new one dint work properly, and yet the graphic in his signature says "Web developement that just works" maybe i'm just bein picky....but hey, I thort it was funny

well done.....makes my 253 powered C210 look sh!t.......time to spend $$ and get a vq45 of my own.......what does ur car weigh? mine is around the 1100-1200 mark(i think) Oh BTW there is a r33 somewhere in logan being(or already) built with a 350 chev so urs isnt the only one...i'll find out more for you

i have seen a 900+kw fj....i dont remember where.....hell i think it may have been in oz..... mark ashfords 7 sec(8.02 last i heard but that was i while ago so he prolly broke the 7 sec barrier) s14 drgcar has an fj20 that he built himself....744hp @ the wheels.......dunno wot that is in kw but its good nonetheless.......also the fj20 powered rail(dragster) that did 9's or 10's......

v8???? wot v8.....v8 skyline? who? where??? tell me...TELL ME NOW!!! lol obviously there is more than one of us now eh?:burnout:

My bad...typo...i meant hilux calipers. what ive heard is they are a bolt on for the front. I meant Accord discs.......maybe it was prelude tho......i dont remember..but like I said...im guessing , because i dont remember for sure......maybe i jogged someone's memory who DOES know
