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.

      R32 GTR clutch master cylinder adapters

      By weikleenget · Posted

      I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
