Hi All

my old man has a R30 Hatch in TI spec that he wants gotten rid of..

Pros: Good motor, was running when taken out of service. Manual, TI 20 spoke Mags, Decent Interior, AC,

Reasonable condition considering we were kids when mum drove it..

the ignition system was a custom build from performance ignition in Melbourne, color is gold and i'm not aware of any rust

has been in storage for 8 years undercover and kept clean and dry..

Cons: Power Steering needs service or repairs, clutch hydraulics need overhaul, 1 or 2 injectors needed slight unblocking when put in storage,

would hazard it needs all new injectors now..

Is there much interest for these, whats it worth?

Car is located in Vermont south in Melbourne

Cheers

It is worth what you can get for it...

sometimes on eBay they will sell for $1500-$2000... I bought a crashed Sedan Manual and a good Auto Hatch with a blown headgasket for $500, but they were 2hrs drive from Sydney...

I would suggest that if you want to help your old man get a little bit more cash, you need to fix all the mechanicals...

I'd take if off your hands for low hundreds if it was in Sydney and turn it into another race car...

Cheers,

Darryl

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
