hey r30 fans....i think ive said before, but ive bought a r30hatch....Anyway all i want is engine, gbox, tshaft, loom computer, p-windows and possibly front seats......all other parts are up for grabs...as one piece preferably, but will seperate if need be..... but oce i get what i want from it, i will only keep it for a week or so, then i will chop it up and dump it....so pm me if any of you are interested in the remaining parts/shell......will be cheap as, if not free....depends what ur after......if i remember correctly, all badges are intact also.....

Derrrrrrrrr! aren't I a DuMass, I get the drift, you guys querying me putting RS badges on a HR PNV.

I bought the new badges from Jenesis before I had the PNV, the DOHC RS were going on the MR30 Hatch. I also have a set of U12 Pintara Ti Nissan badges, that I was going to put on the guards, they're black with a GOLD wreath and Nissan on the bottom.

At the end of the day, what's in a badge, the car is still a PNV.

You're the one putting a Tekamon nose on a PNV :P

I was half tempted to put Triumph badges on it... I can see a lot of similarities between the DR and what I think the next evolution of the TR series would have been like

Independant rear

Good brakes for the time

Innovative fuel injection

No steering feel

Reasonably unbreakable engine

One of the fastest cars in its class

But some nice Datsun badges will do, and a Pintara badge for the bootlid just to confuse people lol

Adam,

Other than you being one of the few on this thread that doesn't like the Iron Mask front, what's so dammed bad about putting it on a PNV.

It already has an non std RB engine, non std SAAS Enforcer front seats, non std 16 inch wheels, non std front & rear brakes, non std instrument cluster, non std transmission, non std suspension, non std diff & non std drive shaft.

How else it it so abhorrible that it has an iron mask front.

In the most part it's all nissan and from the R30 family.

Your remark about triumph badges and the like is insane to say the least. Why not go Renault badging, at least you will be staying with company product.

L24E ECU's play a very important part in our ecological status these days.  

They make VERY GOOD LANDFIL!!!!!

Jap Hot Plate tail lights are RARE, try SSS Automotive or Just Jap, or Option 1 etc, try all the importers, PARTS IMPORTERS that is.

All I suggest, I keeping my spare set, or hang on, what you got now?

You got Genuine 84/5 Aussie Tail Lights?????

Let me know if you have.

Yeah, i got a set of 84 Aussie tailights, they are on my car, i also have a single one, right hand side (I think) from a wreck. I gotta get some jap spec lights

As a matter of interest!

Plenty has been said about my intention of changing the front on my PNV, absolutely nothing has been said about the performance enhancements.

What's with the bullsh!t on changing the front?????

so hows life rsx84 , i think i know you . anyhow

i own a paul newman gt es with a l20et , all stock

exept boost , this thing not only lives off neglect

but thrives of it

how ya going roy.. haven't seen you around town for ages, everyone this is the bloke with the 4door PNV, hopefully you still have it? good to see you finally got around to having a look at this site, did you read it all or skip to the good bits? my car is still a work in progress but is this close to completion...

I guess it's cause it's a rare PNV? But,as you say,it's already been tamperd with,so to my way of thinking ,it doesn't really matter.Speaking of performance enhancements,was yours the RB25DET one? Sorry,this thread is too long to go searching back through!

Sure PNV's are rare, but only in Japan are they of value, here they're just another R30.

To some, like those on this forum thread, may think otherwise, but at the end of the day it is only rare and valuable if & when it is SOLD. As I don't intend to sell it ever, there is no rarity value and it will always be a PNV as it is marked that way and sold that way, just a modified version.

If it was to stay stockish, a L20et rebuild to L28 would be necessary for some performance and to rebuild to L28 spec, it's same price for RB and RB is modern technology.

    • If that's the wiring from the factory, I'd be inspecting the loom everywhere.   Any signs of that anywhere else, and seriously, I'd get rid of the car ASAP before the electrical gremlins make it worthless, or it goes up in flames on its own. That is scary how that insulation is failing!
    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
