God dag, fin bil. Velcoman til JNC!

Please correct my grammar and spelling if it's wrong :oops:

Lovely car! My friend Iwan in Holland has one too. Having had the pleasure of a Y30 with the VG30E engine I think it would go very nicely in a C32, especially as the Laurel has nicer steering and must be a bit lighter. My RB20E does lack the power I remember from the 300C.

Are you the person I exported a 300C plus spare engine to from the UK?

looks like the "SGX" trim level meant different things in different countries. New Zealand SGX Laurels didnt have the digital dash, voice warning, cruise control or the auto leveling suspension. It mentions it in the brochure that I still have, but we didnt get it.

We did get the electric drivers seat though which the controls sit in the tray thingee between the gearlever and the armrest/box between the seats.

like the dash too

Shame, those links not working for me.

As promised in my PM, here is the one that is/was owned by Roar Berget in Norway. he was the man who I exported the 300C and spare VG30E to.

And here is the one owned by Iwan Vlaar in Holland. He owns several rather fine cars, including a 130 Cedric 2400 (which he let us use when I got married), South African R31 saloon with RB30E which found in a UK scrapyard, C31 hardtop in need of work and amazing 430 estate.

Excellent idea! Should be way easier than putting one into 810, and I reckon would be a very nice drive. I liked my Y30s well enough, and here you should have the benefit of less weight, IRS and steering rack.

Here we have another car of mine. You can see that this car have a grill.
The Laurels who has been sold here in Norway, have not been sold with this grill. Its also difficult to find them. I as was lucy and find one on Ebay, from Japan.
If some of you can help me, finding or know someone that have a grill like that, witch i can buy, it will have been very nice for me.

Its generel difficult to find parts to Laurel in Norway, so finding special equipment its not very easy. Can some of you please help me find some mudflaps (O`rginal), like in the picture??

HEY! thats ny car :lol:

it currently looks like this

I`m going to paint the hole car and put in a vg30et engine from 300zx z31

custom turbomanifold

Spottedlaurel · **Posted:** Mon Jan 07, 2008 3:56 pm

Good luck with it SiLvEr! Are you Roar Berget, or did you buy it from him? Just wondering what happened to the 300C I sent out to Norway, whether it is still in one piece? It was quite a good one really.

Certainly looks like you are doing a thorough job, should be great with the turbo!

No not him, and e bought it from a Per Ole Tettli in summer last year.

Is that a "satan" (from z31.com) manifold?

correct

painted the engine bay this weekend

the differens

much better

HowlerMonkey · **Posted:** Tue Jan 15, 2008 6:38 am

"satan" does good work.

Thanks for the pics as your car seems close enough to my infinity M30 that I can get a good point of reference.

I had planned on using the vg30 and modifying the left pad such that it cleared the turbo but I am going with a L28et mated to a FS5R30 tranny (pathfinder version).

I may keep the "longshifter" just to show the shortshifter crowd what is truly cool.

Very nice build you have there.
