Actually might be in luck - guy on Gumtree in Brisbane will convert for $12 per tape, plus a bit of postage. Will have a chat to him tomorrow.

Nice one. There is some good sh*t on gumtree occasionally.

Ha you'd think they'd be cheap ay?! They're just an old camera/player.

 

I bought a lj 2 door in back in the year 2000 for $600 and it was sweet as. I bought an lh in 2002 that needed a trans for $250 plus $100 for a second hand trimatic. I replaced the diff for $60 when it broke.

 

Good luck finding anything like that nowadays.

 

Hope you still have them in your collection. 

Theyd be worth a mint. 

I know a bloke with a mint uc. He gets harassed on the daily to sell. He has zero plans to modify it just drive it. I say he's mad.

Nope they're gone. They were considered an old ordinary car back then. Along with my hd and ht belmont.

 

The oldest cars I have now is the 88 skyline and the 89 vn.

That skyrine is a classic now. 

I had a vn svle back in the day. That was fun. Was a bees dick slower than my mates r33 s1.5.

I also have a 1995 s2 r33 coupe that had 340rwkw before it hydrolocked from a leaking injector o-ring and broke.

 

I still have all the bits in the shed.

 

Haha if I ever repair it I'll use a bigger turbo then a gt35r.

don't see how that is possible.

didn't have my car 4 years ago

I've got a machined rb30 block with cp pistons to suit that has run about 5000km. The 25 head has been modded for internal vct feed and blocked off at the front.

 

There are a few other goodies to hold it together and various other parts/mods to make it work.

 

I just need a wrist pin, a new rod and get the crank ground then the long block can go back together with new gaskets and bearings.

 

I've got 2 more rb30 long blocks in the shed if needed.

 

Fark that car anyway.

 

I'll waste more money on the ford before I put that back together.
