The C110

Cheers mate, ive got a 1.5 megabit connection should be done in no time...

FWIW this is the 240k forum.....

Jeez you guys are damn helpful! - All that info should allow him to set it up in no time - except for one thing - He drives a '73 khgc110 - or a 4th generation Skyline if you will - it shares many parts with the Z, however, there are many things that are markedly different; so, my advice, mikey, is to follow this info as best you can while also checking for compromises you may have to make. PM 240k&beyond [bruce] as hes doing a rear disc conversion for his c110 probably as i speak. Check out his gallery if you want, hes using oz spec hr30 skyline rear discs - not sure if the US got that model. In any case hes probably the best man to ask. Hope you can work something out. Regards, Tom

Hey still not clear on the exact time for this meet, im pretty interested, but a date would be great

Gday and welcome, I know im repeating everyones comments, but fantastic site, great cars [im surprised at the variety :rambo: of vintage japanese cars, some of the models i wish we had in australia! ] and hope to hear more from you in the future! Regards, Tom

I agree alfa, hyperbolic sheizer...

Thats f&*king rank...

Hah, thats a great idea, apart from the 6-7000km drive for me :stupid: ! Really it would be great, but i definitely think itd be reserved for all you eastern states boys! Damn the size of our continent ...

Gday, Id be really interested to make it to that actually, i dont think there will be any other 240k owners so all the attention will be on me Hopefully all of the Perth guys on this forum would be able to make it - Mr Camo....? Tom ps. is this january 1st we're talking about?

Jeezuz is that a real 240k gt for sale in SA!!! If youve got the money it could be a nice purchase - although 5 large ones - a little exorbitant perhaps? What happened to the other one Joonix? Tom

Just to address a few points i raised earlier, Lachlan, you are quite right, it was approximately 24 240k gt's not gtx's. In all of the info of that thread i must have been confused. In any case the link i posted was to the wrong thread anyway. As for Ray's vin he appears quite convinced that his car indeed posseses the wonderous 'P' in the prefix, youve obviously had this discussion with him before however. Oh and he imported his car from PNG not Japan, as the gtx was also sold there - the distance is obviously a convenience. Another hijack, im sorry - great car, story and hope to hear more from you mike! Tom

Beat me to it Michael!, As kyteler [Michael] mentioned, the l28 is definitely not a stock motor for a 2000gtx[this is what often happens to gtx's in japan, when enthusiasts wish to upgrade their car to a 'gtr spec' as i stated earlier]. And from what ive gathered the particular l28 that dwells in your engine bay is not stock at all, with swathes of tasty after-market stuff. Perhaps after a cleanup of the components it would still be worth keeping, as i imagine a nicely worked l28 turbo in the same vein as yours would produce ample power [in the positive sense of course]. I think the torque factor of the l28 could still outweigh that of a modern sr20 too :laugh: . In any case it would still be a great idea if you kept the old engine in the backround somewhere, just in case :rambo: Lachlan: When reading through prince's posts, i came upon this tidbit of information. He actually owns an Australian 2000GTX, and amazingly, with the vin prefix of KPGC110, as nissan built more gtr body/chassis than there were s20's for. If you ever go to a nissan/prince meet, i think it would be fantastically insightful to share thoughts and information with him. Regards, Tom

Gday another new member!! Welcome, welcome, your car sounds quite tasty as it is! Is it an Australian gtx [there were very few imported here, 20-30 so i believe] or jdm? Im getting ahead of myself though, ill take a look at the pics! Oh and where do you reside? Iwas assuming australia but perhaps somewhere else? NZ? Wow your car is quite the looker indeed, i love the period decals, and the watanabes really compliment the car!! Im in the market for some just like that at the moment Now that i think about it, i reckon ive seen your car before...but where? Ah i know Sgt77.topsites.com...hmmm! I may even have pictures of it. Im getting a little excited here. Why ditch the l28? Im assuming by the look of your car that the ol'girl was probably equipped with triple weber/mikunis? As the japanese refer to these sorts of l28 powered gtx's, "GTR spec"? Fantastic job with the overfenders too, theres a member here who's really interested in the details of fitting flares, perhaps you could enlighten him. And the decision for sr20 power, thats a little different...why not go for rb power? Hope you can fill me in on these tidbits, im interested in hearing heaps more from you. Regards, Tom p.s according to the website from whence these pictures came, this car was in japan at that time, so i can only surmise that you have had this car shipped over to wherever you live, unless you indeed live in japan. untitled234.bmp untitled456.bmp

Ohhh why cant there be a coupe advertised in wa for once :mad: !!! Id buy it, if only it was a little closer [try 7000kms closer....]!!! Has anyone got a pic?

Best Skyline model ive ever seen Those Ebbero [or whatever thyere called] never seem to do it justice, always out of scale. Nice

Alan! These pictures are perfect! Many, many thanks!! My mate is pretty good with photoshop, so i should have no worries! Lachlan, hmmm what do i plan to do with them :devious: Honestly though, i really love the graphics, maybe a poster for my room :rambo: Tom
