14K's pretty rich huh! That's more that both of my K's combined!

That is 240Z/260Z territory. I would love a 240K coupe as well but for $14k it would need to be an immaculate GTR replica (and a manual!) for that money.

cheers

So you want an immac GTR replica for 14k, AND your asking 20k odd for a stock Iron Mask coupe :blink:

Alfadog sold his 240k GTR replica for $12k. Remember it is still a replica at the end of the day.

I was offered $20k for the DR30 18 months ago and I knocked it back. That was after 2 other offers of $15k and $17k at the Skylines show and shine in 2007. It won best classic and people who actually SEE the car are blown away by it. I appreciate that I wont get $20k for it in this market and I dont really care if no one gives me the money I would need for me to part with it. I love the car and would only sell it for something else as rare such as an Aussie delivered GTR.

Yeah I am probably a dreamer but I dont have to sell. It is only what the market will pay. Maybe my car is only worth $2 grand. The guy selling the 240k obviously has a price in mind and if it doesnt sell so be it. I must admit I am quite amused by the interest the 240k is getting!

cheers

Actually a closer look has revealed that the (first time) ebayer has a reserve! Maybe he's expecting a bidding war. However, I don't think you really can compare this one (body good, paint faded, everything works) to Alfadog's lovely GTR clone 240k.

I still think the price rise to get a DR30 from the mother land has not nearly effected their worth here as much as owners have hoped.... 20k. I would have taken the money and ran!!

Must admit I am one to jump on the 240k bandwagon :P Would love a 4 door

I was umming and ahhing at the time. The thing is, when I dont drive it I think I want another car. I take it for a spin around the block and I am in love again he he. :) Looks like I will be keeping it! :)

I have always had a soft spot for 240k's. Dad had a gorgeous blue 4 door and I had a jaffa orange C210 coupe for a little while. I saw a white 240k 4 dppr on Carpoint last week (yes it has sold) that was a one owner 19000 original km car for....wait for it....$4000! Needless to say it was gone before I could get to the phone!

cheers

The charm is infectious isn't it :O

No bids! Reserve not met! What the hell! I know... I'll relist it at $13,500, with a reserve of $15,000 and a buy it now of $16,800.

The four door that I mentioned before is owned by an old guy who lives in Geelong. He called me and offered to sell, but Im on my best behavior till the credit card has been paid off. He also has an... optimistic view of what the cars are worth, but not quite as ridiculous as our ebaying friend.

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
