C210/240k Pics

Pics from a BBQ at a friend's place on Saturday. By some strange co-incidence everyone turned up in a Skyline. Even Ken and Mary were there.

Nice collection of coupes. Would like to attend a bbq like that here in Perth. Are those all original cooktop tail lights or replacements? I saw an auto amoungst them. Is it the same auto that the L24's come out with, and if so how strong are these autos?

I'm about to run a 260z with 2'' jag S.U's with the original auto in my coupe. Would really like some feed back.Hope the food matched the standard of the cars, thanks for the pics it's great to see other cars. If I new how I'd put up a pic or 2 but then again maybe I'll wait till I've given it a body makeover.

Cheers Ricky.

Hi mate,

The hotplates pictured have all come off Japanese Skylines (C210 or C211) and then shipped to Australia at some stage. The Australian cars were robbed of the round lights and some other nice options available in Japan. If you look carefully at the orange coupe you'll see that it has the Japanese seats, headrests, the electric mirrors, and the GT badges too.

I think your auto will cope with a 260z engine and twin carbs fine, but it may rob you of some of the performance you'd get with a 5 speed.

Adding photos is easy. There is a button at the bottom of the screen when you click "Add Reply".

Cheers

The blue 240k coupe is owned by a mate of mine who lives in Deer Park in the west of Melbourne. He is also working on a completing a blue 240k sedan body shell, and a blue C210 coupe so that he can have a matching set!

I'll let you know next time we are all meeting up if you like.
