Love the 2000GT-R it would be a dream to own and restore one

[suckithardnfast]

[MiSSxxEMS]

I do agree, older cars have much more character and presence than some of these new fangled things :)

[bakemono858]

kgc10 gtx aka Gavin

[MX5Dorifto]

@BigDaddyGdog Gday Gav! I'm keeping the boot badge (just been too lazy to fit it/too scared to drill the holes) :-)

[JeremyPetho]

This is one of the most beautiful cars I have ever seen.

Under the bonnet it looks like my 910, which is in many pieces in my garage. Hopefully this will be an inspiration to fix it up.

[yuri5675]

hey bro' i think the car isn't to far looking from the 1971 datsun 510-by Nissan..check it out..

[Axle9117]

i wonder what it tastes like...

[smokey91820]

I want one 

[mikzsan]

great vid! is this the only one in aus? 

[KoukiSilvia]

i want more !!!!

[FEASTJAPAN]

Read through JNC about this one. Great to see you worked out all the bugs. Must have been a good bargain needing so much work to make street worthy again.

We have a video in our section on one recently picked up. Have a look.

[MX5Dorifto]

@FEASTJAPAN Not really, it was actually quite expensive :-)

[FEASTJAPAN]

@MX5Dorifto

I would ask what the FOB value was before shipping but that would be rude.

We normally FOB quote 2.2 up to 2.5 million yen for one in good order, newer resto, o/h'd engine, susp., etc.

[FEASTJAPAN]

@MX5Dorifto

Interesting. Sending you an email right now.

[MX5Dorifto]

@FEASTJAPAN No problem, mine was Y2.8mil. All the details are in the build thread anyway :-)

[AdelaideGraffScene]

FUCK YEAH

[FreeStyleRides]

Awesome interview and video! Bring out more like this Mark!

[HoonMediaTV]

@FreeStyleRides Cheers guys!

[TheZHLANE]

Awesome gt, classic cars have their own personalities.

[joseeduardoescobar]

Very nice car

[fullboostcomau]

Nice work Boxer ;-)

[L0stralian]

best video yet keep it up

[gav240z]

love it well done kevin enjoy it.

[Weswes1994]

so much detail and love from beginning to end. I love car stories like this

[Feltmountainbiker]

sick, but off the line it looks like its gonna blow up

[matt91gee]

@Feltmountainbiker You were expecting something different from a Nissan motor? lol

[Feltmountainbiker]

@matt91gee well i guess I am used to the new motors.. i have never seen them lag or bog like that.

[ocauTMM]

@Feltmountainbiker a big cam and carbies do that ;)

[RaindancerAU]

I drove Kevin's DR30 around Mt Panorama (admittedly it was only one lap, fairly sedate because there was a highway patrol car ominously parked on Conrod) and that was quite a treat.

After experiencing just one lap in one of Kevin's tweaked cars, I'm sure his Hako is just amazing.

[skarsnuten75]

My dreamcar!

[rotativo13]

Older cars like these seem to have a life of there own, A Living thing.....when you drive one you can feel the car talking to you...comunicating what is feeling from the road, its mechanical parts, you become connected, you become ONE.....Every true car guy knows exactly what im talking about. ;)

[kimgulle]

@rotativo13 You make more sense then anything i've ever heard my friend. :)

[Bosmob]

@rotativo13 now all the American JDM enthusiats finally get why people drive around in old cars.

But in America it is far cheaper and easier to restore and modify American cars from the 60's and 70's than it is a 70's Japanese car.

[rotativo13]

@Bosmob I LOVE cars period.....Japanese,American,E­uropean....Mazda RX3, 68Barracuda or a shoebox 55,56,57 Chevy even a classic like a Duesenberg or a Cord....You see I just feel older cars have a personality, it becomes more personal. In 1973 my Dad due to the gas crisis traded in his 68 Plymouth Barracuda for a 73 Datsun 1200 in Japan known as a "Sunny". I was mad as hell, I told him pop's what have you done? Whats funny its today I would kill to have either car . Hahaa enjoy the ride.

[Bosmob]

@rotativo13 Yeah I get what you mean when you say cars are alive. I can experience that every day whenever I hop into my 72 Chevelle or 59 Edsel.

But choosing American cars to restore and have fun with was a no brainer for me cause I live in America. Trying to get parts for a Skyline or a Cedric etc... is a pain because I don't speak Japanese and I don't know anybody in Japan that could supply me with parts.

That's what I was trying to say

[thesk8didas]

@rotativo13 thats rite!!!

[Neojzx26]

love those automotive story, keep it up

[TerribleTimes]

Long live the old sports car soul!

[JeepYJJunkie]

...If i had the money, I would buy that from him.

[MrJdm2107]

[87sprintqf]
