igor Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Saw this at Hanmeet. Very tidy I thought. Please tell me you're going to fix it so the mudflaps don't drag on the ground. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasinthemirage Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Went for a ride in this as Hanmeet, seriously considered buying it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beaubot Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 Turbo is on the consideration list, initially I was tossing up the idea of a VQ30 with itbs but Ive fallen for the diesel. Igor, mudflaps have been deleted! Im glad it was only a consideration! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doullama Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 (edited) Cool, haven't seen an r30 for ages. Had one with an L20et and auto back when they were "random old pos" rather than "appreciating classic", always thought it was great with so many random features, including the now-common windscreen fluid low light, and a light for when the spare tyre was missing! I'm pretty sure they were specced higher than the r31 in fact. may you have many happy miles! edit: also some motor honey like moreys stabiliser or its lucas equivalent won't fix your diff, but will shut it up at about 30% by volume (only for open diff, will probably wreck an lsd) Edited September 20, 2017 by doullama barry advice 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although now I think of it(read: you remind me I have some in the garage) Moreys for the gearbox it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0R10N Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 +1 for comical "GT-DIESEL" decals. Good jerb man! I told my mate that someone in the South Island was building an Iron Mask diesel R30 sedan and he got faux-stroppy because that was always going to be his pet project, hah. This is a neat car. Drove it at Hanmer and somehow found enough restraint not to buy it on the spot, such an easy thing to drive and with a surprising amount of oomph for an oilburner. Brought back fond memories of punting around in my DR30 sedan, which @Brdflu keeps telling me I should really stop neglecting and start working on again. As old man KY says, there's a bit of surgery involved to fit the nose, also you may need to buy some facelift bumpers and tail lights to complete the look.
