I was perusing Yahoo Japan and I happened upon this classic Tommy Kaira M30 Skyline for sale

If anyone had deep pockets and a strange willing to own such a car they should check it out. Would be hard to know what standard should be like, and therefore exactly what you'd end up with though.

wont say deep pockets. car is $6k to buy so roughly $12k landed here at a guess.

it would be the sort of thing that the 31 guys would like. if I wasn't in teh midst of doing a 32 I would buy it myself.

I don't know that I would bother, it's just another HR31.

If I was looking for something diferent, I think I would be sourcing one of these ...................... the real M30 Infinity or F31 Leopard

Thats awesome, the value has obviously come down on these a lot in the last year or two.

Absolute collector's car.... they are definitely just another HR31 - to most people.

RB30DE is very different from the usual 80's jap stuff, so it's just rare and different, that's all they have going for them.

Mind you one of these in stock form would walk all over any stockish RB20, and prob leave a standard GTS-R behind too.

I see the point you're trying to put over BUT?

At the end of the day it's JUST a tricked up HR31, so why more collectable than JUN, HKS, TRUST, etc or in Australia, Stewart Wilkins or Arthur Jackson with anything L series?

Cheers, D

    • Unless you have big cams, there is no reason for an RB to idle at any more than the stock 650. No, it is not 850, 950, or anything else. It is 650. In fact, it might even be 550. I just opened an arbitrary stock Neo file in Nistune, and this is what I see
    • I love the undertray, especially the flappy bit for easier access for serving I'm thinking of fabing up one at work for the MX5 while I still have access to the metal shop at work with a guillotine and press brake Whilst removing the plastic undertray on the MX5 isn't to hard, I love the idea of a 2 bolt flap as opposed to removing the whole thing 
    • Great thank you for that. Yeah that is the bumper and spoiler it still has i just hadn't heard of it being referred to as a aero form bumper before. Really appreciate your help.
    • A little progress; I took the opportunity of an oil change to take a sample for oil analysis, will be interesting to see how it was treated for its first 125,000klm (I know how it has been treated since :rofl:) I went with 5w40 and will see what that does for oil pressure at higher revs. Also fitted the Z1 front undertray....a little more sturdy than the plastic factory one (although I suspect it won't stop a tree stump ) Nicest thing about it really is the 2 bolt "service panel"....a gift to the oil changer compared to removing 14 bolts holding the factory tray.
    • I think a scissor lift is better/faster in most cases, but I guess it does obstruct access to the centre of the car? BTW I weighed the quick jack. 3.5 tonne model is 50kg for each side. So yes, portable, but not with one finger
