Random Retro Snap
I picked these wheels up off trademe.co.nz a few weeks back and initially tried them on the back, but neglected to take any photos, so with a clear day today I figured I would try them on the front and make the effort to document it.
They’re 14×7 ROH Steels with alloy centres. The centres are not particularly nice to look at but I got them due to them being 14″ in diameter and so the factory hubcaps slip into them quite nicely.
So, they sit nice and seriously close to the guard edge (on the front at least) but how will they look with the factory hubcaps on… (more…)

I checked out this C211 Hardtop recently. Taking donations to try and purchase it if anyone is keen to help?

…bug in a rug? Skate in a crate?
Either way, the KHR31 is now loaded into its cosy little container and awaits its final journey to the shores of New Zealand.
Ship sails Monday!
The Skyline contingent, they’re a popular car globally (now) though this is really only a recent thing when you compare it to the length of time that the Skyline range has been about (over 50 years, by the way.) In Japan however, the Skyline has been popular for as long as it’s been produced though a lot of that is to do with it’s foray into racing and subsequent successes with the S54 and C10 series of cars. This entry is dedicated to the Skyline range on show at the Nagoya event.
With C10 Racing Lamp Covers & Rear Spoiler, C130 indicators and C110 GT-R flares this Yonmeri has a clearly recognisable presence. I recognised it from another picture I have kicking about somewhere of it on a sodden race track, battling a yellow Celica. I’ll try dig that up.
The appearance of the C10 going part way to replicating that of the first Nissan Skyline GT-R race car with the C210 to it’s right (your left) doing it’s best to join in on the race look with front lip, over-fenders and wide SSR MkII’s to fill them. The C210 being another (beside the C110) that missed out on dedicated track time.
