Absolutely gorgeous Mick. Original number plates of that time too.

I had a loan of my mother's one on our honeymoon to Perth > National Parks etc, because I couldn't trust my Alfetta GTV to make it there and back (in one piece) - lol

Extra low Kms I trust?

hi thanks for those comments , it has only done 39,000 km i bought it of a german lady who owned it for 32 years , i have never seen a car that has been kept in that sought of condition it even had the original tyres . so i but the new tyres & superlites on . i missed the datsun show in sydney , but when i get to a show people will be amazed .

thanks mick graczyk

Wow 39 000km, that is a little over 1000km per year. Original tyres from 1977? Would have thought they'd have gone hard and cracked to the shitter 20 years ago... Congrats :cheers:

Early 2003. Went to a P plater on the Northern Beaches. I only saw it twice again. Still got the Factory booklet though- makes me smile. Have a feeling its carrying about baked beans for heinz now pinch.gif

    • The R32 suffers from an instrument binnacle that is uncomfortably close to the design of a VN Commodore's. But beyond that, the layout of the rest of everything, and the materials (ie the vinyl coverings on dash, armrest, etc) are acceptable, and the patterns on the fabrics are not as blergh as those in the R33. And R33 seats are....quite unattractive. I know it's only small details there, but I reckon the R33 got worse than the 32. But the big blergh is the overall shape of the dash on the R33. It's just has that whole Maxima/Pulsar sort of look to it. Nothing special at all. Generic Nissan sedan. Whereas, at least the R32 dash/binnacle was different. Less a wide expanse of boringly curved plastic. More a "cockpit" sort of look, even if nowhere near to the degree that the A90 Supras got. R34 seats look good on their own, until you realise that they are indistinguishable from the shape and fabric on 70 other Japanese cars. And the foam bolsters on them suffer even worse than the earlier cars. Other than that I don't really have an opinion the rest of the R34 interior. I took the bits of the R34 I wanted (brakes and engine) and added them to the best external appearance Skyline in the modern era (the 32). So nyerr!
    • Can I be your first customer? I would like hard lines done for the fuel system, 8AN up and 8AN back and the underside wire wheeled and coated (brush or sprayed) with that black tar shit.
    • Speak for yourself, I love the R33 interior. 32 is blergh. I like the 34 interior too. Then you start getting much newer in most cars and they all turn back to blergh. 馃槢
    • 500-600hp into a RB is already 'sinking endless amounts of money' into an engine. Especially a 30 year old engine. Unfortunately this is the RB Game. Considering stock power (or at least stock components) will do ~360whp on 98 by simply turning up the boost on the stock gear on a RB26, that would be where I'd say the cutoff point for "sinking endless amounts of money into the engine" Cause to even do this reliably you'd probably need to replace all the bits anyway cause they're old, starting your sinking journey anyway. I reckon the least painful way is rebuilding the engine to make 50hp over stock lol. The 'plan your ownership around a rebuild' was a common saying 15 years ago.
