Hey everyone, I posted here long ago but thought it was worth another try.

I've got a red R30 sitting here. Originally two tone silver/blue but has been repainted by me and a mate.

Car needs a new rhs brake light, rhs drivers side window, windscreen, wheel bearings and battery.

Apart from that, as far as I'm aware, shes mechanically sound.

Its never been registered in SA and has been at least 24 months from being registered at all.

To be driven in SA it would need to be taken through Regency,

now before you freak out. It just needs a security/ID check to make sure its not stolen, not one of those thorough checks.

I haven't driven her for quite a long time though so I'm not sure if anything else has developed. Shouldn't have though.

I was originally asking $1300 or something to not even cover the purchase and paintwork.

To be honest, i know it needs some work, but its still a good little car.

Asking $700 neg.

Any questions or requests for more pics, just ask.

It's not necessarily a Ti, but being an RMR, I think they all had air-con & PS anyway...

(they certainly had 4-wheel discs)

I think power windows & mirrors would give more indication of the spec.

My 'plain' '82 aus-spec GT had PS & AC, A mate's '84 has AC, but no PS (it now has my old PS fitted)...

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

$700.00? that's about what I would pay for it. You got a deal at this price, just let me know how we do the dollars.

Cheers, D

Just a quick note...

Started her up and took her for a quick spin around the block. Still runs strong!

Wheel bearings seem to have fixed themselves, lol. Well, at least, they're not making noises anymore anyway.

Another thing regrettably however... The indicators are a bit touchy. If you just click them on, they don't work, but if you hold the stick half way up/down then they work fine... Maybe just dodgy old wiring. Not sure.

Had the same problem, fixed by cleaning the switch contacts.

    • OK, solid mount Z1 diff brace is in, pretty straightforward, it picks up 3 diff hat bolts and ties them to 2 support bolts on the subframe. Pretty sure someone else on here said they had reduced axle tramp with this but mine was already pretty good for smooth wheelspin, and still is....will see you this goes over time and whether I end up with a broken rear diff hat
    • Ah yes, but the part in my hand was actually painted and fitted by me! I knew any front lip was likely to be sacrificial but I've had to fix it twice already... by the time I buy a fibreglass fixing kit, sort out sandpaper blocks, buy some fibreglass filler, body bog, spend the time and effort for a 'Greg' result... a new one being $290 seems like it's the better way to go and spray that with bedliner/raptor coat and we're all pretty again.. Would have preferred it last more than a month though. Them's the breaks I suppose.
    • I find it funny that the USA is finding out all this really really weird stuff, and people from the USA are coming here treating it like gospel, yet, all the info on solving those issues is here on these forums for the last 15 odd years... Also, I know how much heat it takes to ignite the hood lining of an R33 skyline. I worked it out myself... It also took a LOT of time, and heat for it to do it... Big single, and I needed to drive the car, so retarded the timing off to "protect it". Yeah, that was a bad move for cruising on a freeway with only 15 degrees of timing on it. That was a lesson I learned around 2009. So that's over 15 odd years ago. Aligning water and oil, that's identical for any turbo engine, it's not Japanese specific. If a shop doesn't know how to make sure the core is rotated the right way, then they shouldn't be touching any turbo engine. That's not a matter of "We haven't had Skylines for that long here"...
    • Sounds like it is rotational in the driveline. CV? Tailshaft CB? Also.....didn't you just pay to have that bit painted and put on the car?
    • Yeah, when I dialled my idle down, given how much time I spent idling at the lights in traffic on my daily commute, the effect on overall fuel consumption was absolutely noticeable.
