Once approved you should find a big one of these here http://www.classiczcars.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=19529&cat=500&ppuser=6441 Cheers, Jim.

I been wondering what happened to you Rob. Good to hear you're still working on the 240K. I guess it's better to be a happy panel beater:) than an unhappy:disappoin IT type ...person:paranoid: .......but don't completely foresake your IT skills, even if you just keep up to date on a hobbylike level....at least at that level you can always walk away from it when you feel the irits coming on, one thing you can't do if it's your bread and butter, THEN it costs you money! Got any pics of the car to share? Cheers, Jim.

...and a bit later. A few oil cooler related shots. The parts book page is from the racing tune-up section of the 1966 Prince Skyline GT-B parts catalogue. A good indication of the older cartridge type filter used on the G7 2litre OHC six. This particular one is for use with oil cooler equipped cars but is very similar to the standard (no cooler)equipped cars. Sorry I don't have any pics handy of the Prince oil cooler. The other pics are of the only oil cooler,(shiney thing behind the grille) I have seen fitted to a factory production KPGC10 looks just like the one for the 432R? Alan, do you know if this was a production option for all the S20 powered cars? Or is this an owner add-on? The rest of the car (KPGC10-000013) looks like a museum piece, stock steel rims running Bridgestone Skyway 6.45H-14 crossply tyres! Looks like the benefits of lower engine oil temperatures, along with the bonus of greater oil capacity was not lost on the Prince or Nissan engineers. Jim. :classic:

The internet promos are awesome.http://www.worldsfastestindian.com/ Can't wait to see it on the big screen. I'm gonna go salt flat racing one day!! Jim.

He has installed an RB 20det into a 1966 Prince Skyline GT(called Marvin ) He resides in South OZ. Here is his CarDomain site http://www.cardomain.com/ride/547037 I know Pete (a fitter and machinist by trade) spent a lot of time working this out and then implementing his ideas. All his own work as far as I know. Nice bloke, and he should be at Bathurst Kent! I've got his contact details at home if you need them. Jim.

Hey John! How are ya mate?! I gotta point out there is a BIG difference between Alans' phrase "being laid into" (copping a hiding/ gettin'a beltin', American idiom equivalent; Whalin' on 'im:laugh: ) and being "laid" or getting Ben Dover:laugh: .... have I just earnt the title Captian Obvious:nervous: ? Sometimes it's bloody hard to get the jest/ innocence or well meaning intent of a post across in type. You just have to hope the interpretation is read as the intent:geek: ...Well, here's me bus! I'll be off now. Hoo Roo!!:laugh:

Gotta say I've used the nomex gloves, and kid leather, and believe it or not...kangaroo leather:D A fine leather glove whilst driving/ competing is like a good tool, you get on with the job and don't even notice them......until you have to do without them! As corny as it looks:rolleyes: I have a pair of very old stringback gloves in the Skyline, just like the ones in a few of the sales brochures. With a leather bound steering wheel they go like......well, hand in glove!!

Not too shabby Alfa! show us ya box art for this one. I also have about 4 cubic metres of unbuilt kits....sad i'nit!

October 1972 Australia. 302/351 Ford powered Fibreglass kit car...but most were sold turnkey. I've included a pic of the coupe, but 75% sold were roadsters.

http://page5.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/e54604433 At least I think it's available. Translator says something about "not yet exhibition"

No fornicatin' blind elk, just another hit from Yahoo auctions JP Alfa.

Sure was Steve, ~1962 BBC made it, not sure when it first aired in Australia. It had a real cringe factor to it....always wondering what "Father" (Albert Steptoe, the original "dirt...ty old man" was going to inflict on poor young 'Arold. Here's a decent site about it, but there are lots more.http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/guide/articles/s/steptoeandson_7776035.shtml Sorry, bugger-all about 240 Z oil coolers I'm afraid:laugh: Cheers, Jim.

:stupid:

Seeing Alans scan, and Steves pic, and realising.... I HAD THESE PARTS:cry: . I bought a Prince in pieces, it came with many boxes of parts, some I discovered had nothing to do with a Skyline GT, in particular a plasic bag,with "DATSUN" written in permanent marker on the outside, inside, a used oil cooler with those brackets and lines loosely attached along with some cast pieces I suspect were for the filter. I gave the lot away to an aquaintance who played with Datsuns.....well I was a one eyed Prince nut, and "odd Datsun bits?..huh, ptooie" ..damn, I really had no idea. Woulda looked cool under the bonnet of the C10. All part of my dim , dark past now, I'm afraid. I was just thinking, it's things like this that cause my "Steptoe Gene" to kick in. Steptoe Gene; causing sufferer to horde every little bit of "hmmmaybe useful stuff....you know, just in case it'll come in handy one day":rolleyes:The resultant mess reminiscant of "Steptoes place" (Remember "Steptoe and Son" Alan?? ) "Sanford & Son" with Redd Foxx and Demond Wilson was the U.S. equivalent. Which just happened to air in 1972, hey isn't that the year model of 240Z NY Z was enquiring about?? gotta keep the thread on topic ya know:laugh: Cheers, Jim.

:bunny: That's great news Miles, I know you'll enjoy it! Cheers, Jim.

Hmm...I think what you theorise may be so. The first reference to a C111 in the Skyline range is from March of 1976, a BC111T, a 2515mm wheelbase 1600cc 4 cylinder sedan. Note no "E" on the end so I'm guessing no injection. The first 6 cylinder is the ..big breath now... KGC111JTFE, running an L20E donk. This is the first appearance of the "Belt Buckle" grille also. Released June of 1976. Next model release would appear to be the 210 range in August of 1977. If you look at the Yahoo pics you can see where the horizontal bar would fit into the mouldings for the inner headlights. Geeez, talk about hijackin' a thread:stupid:

Yair, that's the one I was thinking of Alfa, I thought they called that model the C111, domestic only? Hey, Kent, there is a 240K coupe in the Riversone wreckers with one of those grills.....If you can ever catch the owner with the place open! The rest of the car appears to be an Australian delivered 240K though.

Possibly a C111 grille with the chrome guts removed?

Heres the pics

http://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/85689741 There is another one out there too, but he wants 15000 yen. Cheers, Jim.

I think its a collection of car chase scenes from whatever this show featuring a C110 was!? http://page6.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/f39669586 Hope someone here gets it :classic: Cheers, Jim.

Sorry its only got 3 hours to go but still....interesting bit of trivia http://page2.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/b63415240 Cheers, Jim.
