Hi all,



I haven't had this car very long at all but I have another project which I really want to finish and need some cash to do it, so here it is:



Make/Model: 1982 R30 Skyline

Engine: R32 RB20DET

Kms: App. 160,000km on dash

Mods: R32 GTS-t front calipers and R33 GTS rotors with new pads. HR31 front struts. Z31 rear end. DR30 dash cluster, seats and tail lights. Resprayed in R33 GT-R silver. Heavy duty clutch. Big but well hidden front mount cooler. Some sort of bosch fuel pump. 3" exhaust. 16" rims. Pioneer CD player and 6X9s. Also have a spare diff and driveshafts as the one in it has a little bit of play. It hasn't got any worse so I haven't bothered changing it out.



Car is in reasonable condition, paint could do with a buff and it has a few small dents and scratches. But for someone with a little bit of time on their hands it won't take much to clean right up. I just have a car stripped to pieces all over my shed so my priority right now is to sort that out.



I have been using it to run to work and back and have not had an issue with it, this RB20 runs even smoother than the R32 I used to have.



I have this advertised on gumtree for $4k, looking for offers somewhere around that area. Feel free to shoot me an offer, just don't bother lowballing me. Rego runs out towards the end of this month, if I get a good offer I will chuck on another 3 months rego. These R30s are getting harder and harder to find in good condition, believe me I was looking for a while before I found this one.



I can be contacted on 0423 464 288, SMS probably better during business hours.



Cheers,

Dwayne

    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
    • I was just going to say that it's good to see you picking up the pace again. Hope the surgery goes well. More downtime just means more time to come up with new ways of digging a deeper rabbithole  
    • How do they compare in size? I have the Yaris coil packs in mine and they work fine. But they are either bigger or sit differently so the engine cover doesn't fit anymore. Not the end of the world but not great either. Do the R35 ones sit flush?
