Rob, the bulbs in there definitely worked when I tested - I made sure to replace those which didnt... I'll check the power ratings of the bulbs when I get home today. I was asking about the wiring because if it's a dodgy join then this might explain why they're only coming on very dimly. Seems that's not the problem though... which lights exactly are dim? On both sides? What was the problem you were having with the old tail lights?

It does indeed Alan. A pity they don't make the "Skyline" badge for the rear finisher anymore though (not sure about the GT-R), so it's hard to find those badges! Rob, alright, you mentioned before that the old tail lights weren't working. Can you test these lights to make sure the problem is in the new lights? Reason being when I tested them I was pretty sure they worked well. Also (you've probably done this already) you might want to check all the wiring and connections to make sure they're connected up properly.

Hi Alan As far as I know the rear finisher is just the same, with different badging. The chrome looking plastic rings are attached to the tail light units (please see attached picture), and then the finisher just is placed in front of that. Like the S30, it all sortof falls apart once you take off a few vital screws and nuts. From what I can tell in pictures, everything on the rear apart from the lights and badging is the same across models.

Hi Rob When I tried the lights out I thought they seemed fine. Did you look at them at daytime or night? They do appear pretty dull during the day... because remember when you depress the brake pedal they have to light up even more. At night they should appear fine, though.

Awesome Gav!! You're lucky. I'm sure there are more than 2 in Australia too, I can imagine a few more stored away by avid enthusiasts. I was thinking you might say they're a little larger than you thought they would be. From pictures of them next to the C110's you can see they're not all that small. Not as small as a Z anyway. Ben's right in that the KPGC10 only had overfenders on the rear. So this wasn't an error! And it's KGC10 for the GT - no P!! P is the designation for the S20 engine.

What an immaculate little Bluebird! I love the styling of the rear of these coupes - vaguely reminds me of the CSP311 Silvia... It's just so aww. IIRC these models were special in that they had the nifty feature of folding down seats, which turned the interior into a large bed. I think it was this model which had that... pretty cool even if I did just make it up! Gav you mean that Skyline that has also been posted up here before? KGC10 I think the designation would be for that - it certainly looked the part didn't it? Did you get to see it??? Lucky bastard!

The price of personalised numberplates is silly.

We call ours Z's too. :classic:

Hi Stephen, Good to know some others here enjoy our discussions- I'm sure if you ever do come across some troubles with your (immac.) 810 you'd be able to find help here... you just gotta ignore the haters!

Very cool feature indeed. It might also interest you that in Japan the GT-X came with electric windows! edit: looks like Michael beat me to it Humm./.. I'll also add then that even the previosu model Skyline (C10) had electric windows on the GT-X model.

This VIN business is curious... A couple of things extra - the GTR came with fender mirrors and flares too, and a little spoiler on the back (as I'm sure you know). Also I'm under the impression they didn't have rear demisters. Bucket seats inside aswell.. and I'm sure many other little differences too! Also I think with the 'GT-R' tail lights, the inner circle is the brake light (see attachment), not the outer. My 2 cents!

I wouldn't sell mine because it's worth more to me than it is monetarily.... but how much is it worth? I would say from what I've seen in the Trading Post at least $3000. As a guess.

Oh, great to see you finally post Harry, make sure to post some pics of the car when you can :)

Sorry for the length? THANKYOU for hte length more like it!! I know who to contact if I want to do any painting...

For 45 bucks, consider me out of the bidding war!!!

Hi Rob, No sorry I don't know the name of those rims. But they are very popular ones in Japan...

Not just a pretty face eh!!

Looks like a bargain ...................... if you want a 2+2

Welcome to the club. An RB20 with triples, certainly different! I never thought of it like that, but yeah 2.0 litre straight 6 fed by 3 webbers... cant get much closer to an S20 than that! I always thought "KPGC110" was reserved exclusively for the GT-R model, but I just had a look in documentations and apparently the "P" can also mean it had the G18 engine (which only came on the SWB versions nonetheless. It makes no mention of the L20 though, so maybe the "P" could identify the L20 and S20 engines...... I just thought it would be odd especially for Nissan to have the GT-R and hardtop GT-X models under the same chassis code. Do you have any documentation about Japanese chassis codes with relevance to this?? Anyway, welcome! Feel free to post some pics of your car in the gallery. We'd love to see.

That's ok then Let us know how the project goes, I think I'm safe to say we're ALL big fans of that particular lump!!

Damnnnnn.. knock on wood buddy.
