    Yahoo Japan

    I’ve used fromjapan.co.jp several times for my skyline (as recently as last week) and the service has always been great.

    Nice old Datsun Saloon

    You could be right actually, just looked and apparently they both had the same lights until ‘67.

    Nice old Datsun Saloon

    Yeah really cheap. Not sure many people over here know much about them...or want them? We picked a 411 up last year for £1k! Think that one for sale is a 410 as the 411 has more rectangular lights. Cool cars!

    LD28's on ebay

    I’m pretty sure it’s actually CNC’d from a single billet, I believe it’s made by Toru Kawabata in Tokyo. Nice job!

    New book ('mook') 'Fairlady Z Story & History'

    It’s definitely a ‘Mook’ in Japan....they are pretty fond of them.

    So, whose is this track roadster then.....?

    Hi Sean, It belongs to Bob Neville, owner of RJN motorsport (now Jensen team rocket RJN). He offered it to me but unfortunately I don’t have the money for it at the moment. Nice car, had a lot spent on it too. Tom

    specing engine

    Yes for sure.....and kameari look like Datsun spirit ones and both of them look like any other high quality, forged racing piston of the same size. Only slight differences in skirt size, skirt coating, ring heights etc between them. The fact is I doubt many tuning companies have in house piston...

    specing engine

    We had this discussion before I believe. This is the response from Eiji after last time you brought this up. I left it at the time but you seem persistent. “Yes there are those who don't know and brag about things. This can't be helped. I have (name removed) and other manufacturers do the...

    New Air box

    Not sure it will fit the Z around the turret area. Also no real need to duct from the centre with the Z as there are plenty of openings in the front rad surround panel.

    Retro Rides Goodwood

    To be honest, if it’s a genuine GT-R, chances are the bonnet would be up so you could see that beautiful S20 twin cam engine! The engine is the obvious difference. From the outside if it were a genuine GT-R the chances are it would be in an original, factory, colour and only sporting a set of...

    Retro Rides Goodwood

    A very brief description is: It’s a Skyline 2000GT/possibly GTX ‘Hakosuka’ chassis code KGC10. Belongs to a guy called Steven Grove (who has three of them). Built up as a GTR replica ish (as were many of the C10 chassis cars in Japan, because of the legendary GTR PGC10/KPGC10 race cars). They...

    Custom Ignition leads? Datsun spirit style

    And you would loose it all..... in the very early days he may have used kameari parts in his builds (he’s actually very good friends with them and has great respect for their products). I promise you that his products are his own design and not anyone else’s re branded etc. Most of these...
