I think Kats on Classiczcars.com was looking at how to reproduce them. But I don't know of any source.

Another Edward Lee's (or should I say Sunshine Cars special). https://www.facebook.com/Japanese.Odometercheck/photos/pcb.1985900361684931/1985899628351671/?type=3&theater https://www.sunrisecars.com.au/vehicle/1994-nissan-skyline-coupe-gt=r-v=spec-50918?fbclid=IwAR3wLUkAitZUgU2YPcpLze1KlwhCK5lgx4igvWGA6rPC7N9AW0KdV9wdb6I

Slow progress, but progress none the less.

Sold for $52,500 NZD. ~$50,000 AUD.

I like the size/profile of these tyres on Topy steel wheels. Does anyone want to hazard a guess as to what size they are? Also any suggestions for 14" tyres in Australia? I do like it when they come with the white letters also. Although it seems you an add these later if req. (yes it's required lol)..

This next wheel was a bit of an anomaly. But there are a lot of small variations in these wheels over the years it can be hard to keep track of all the differences. This was another wheel that I saw recently. It looks like a Z432 style wheel, it has the RMW-9L331 casting mark which is consistent with Z432 mags, but it doesn't have the center cap / hub feature. Also note how the spokes are "sharper" than the ones above (4 cylinder rally version has more beveled edges) on the spokes. It's a very subtle difference but you can see it once you compare them and this would make them an odd pairing, given the differences. According to the weight tests Alan did (previously in this thread) this wheel is likely to have slightly more weight to it than the other 5.5j 4 cylinder competition version.

I wanted to add some more information on correct identification of these wheels. This set here are what I will call the 4 Cylinder version of the Kobe Seiko Rally Mag. These differ from the Z432 mag, in the hub area you can see no cap/holes for a cap. It's just a plain open hub. Also you can see various casting marks that may be manufacture dates (as far as I can tell). These are often 5.5j wide and 14" obviously PCD is 114.3 like most Datsun's of the period. They use the same rare as hens teeth rotating wheel nuts. These were often found on the Datsun Violet 160J SSS rally cars (pictured). However and @HS30-H can correct me if I'm wrong, they may have also been used in certain rally events on 240z's where a more narrow wheel was required, such as the Monte Carlo rally. They obviously don't have the cut outs like the wider 7J versions. These are also made of Magnesium.

Just wondering why you built a knock sensor rather than just bought an OEM 1 designed to pick up knock frequencies. I would have thought with the megasquirt you could easily wire it up and be able to see knock show up pretty easily that way? Or is half the fun building the electronic stuff yourself? (Which I understand). I'm actually worried that I'd struggle with the junior electronics kits lol.

If you do sell, I'm keen. Even if reproductions are the work of heathens lol...

I believe @cracker might have? I know someone in the US who has, but is still waiting on their arrival.

Red interior with 904 white. Good combo! Will be very interesting to see what it gets.

Clearly he wanted an early 240z. Got a Z32 instead.

How the Z32 should have been made. Rb26.. 1 reason the Z32 never appealed to me was the cramped engine bay.

Definite not Hitachi 240z SU's. Could be HS6 British SU's.

Hey Folks, Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations on a company to use for shipping a modest size item (S30Z drivers side door) between Auckland->Sydney? I'm not too worried about price, so long as it's not astronomical?

Oh, I know that game. I've been playing that game with Real Estate agents... I've heard quite a few things about the Gosford Car Museum - let's just say quite a few people are happy it's closing down. Here is photos of the Fairlady 240Z-L https://goo.gl/photos/ouLBkiFBY2c2SkbL9 They had no real idea what it was and therefore undersold it in my opinion..

Gosford Car Flipping Museum hey? So was it the silver 240z that @matt drago restored you missed out on? I personally would sell the S130Z. But that's just me. :). The car that I should have bought when it was at the Museum was the Fairlady 240Z-L....man that car..
