[Taylor Shinobu]

I've always swooned hard over these cars, I just think they look awesome, so lets see what m30s/f31s you guys have/ can dig up :naughtyd:

School me, guys. What's good about these cars? I always thought that were about even with the Z31 when if comes to mods & aftermarket support... Which is to say, there ain't much. Am I wrong?

[Tempo]

cool cars but needs to be in off topic, "Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum"

idk too much about them but i think you can run s13 suspension parts with them

[OBEEWON]

My friend had three of these things and they were all pretty cool.
He had really bad luck though.

Its mainly just the looks, I always thought they looked really cool, but s13 coils fit on and I think a s13 subframe and diff can fit, z31 full 5 speed swap works along z31 5 lug hubs and even the turbo parts from a z31 bolts straight on from what I've read. It's basically the closest we got to an r31 skyline here the states

Is this like the Nissan equivalent of a Cressida or something?

Is this like the Nissan equivalent of a Cressida or something?

More like the equivalent of a Soarer.

I guess in a way, saying its a Soarer would be a little generous I guess, its a f31 leopard in japan so I guess a Cressida would be a good comparison

Friend of mine is on his second 2nd M30. First one was a bucket, but he got it cheap and it was on coils with a z32 trans. Ended up crashing it at willow and scrapped it after taking most of the parts off. Now he picked up a stock one and were doing some work to it. Should be on the road soon, I'll post pics!

M30 love I can understand, shame you never see any clean ones riding around


as for the J30 post......please do not try to rep the J30....please....its too sad....youll get this thread locked.

[Flicktitty]

M30 is kind of a neat looking car, if you're into the old boxy look.

[Taylor Shinobu]

Oh god don't start with the j30s, even though they are kinda easier to build

[HyperTek]

wow surprised no one likes it , i think it looks better than m30 stock for stock lol
m30 dashboard is mad uglay
Can't be that bad, people build cressidas for crying out loud lol

I do agree that the J30 has potential. It's like a 4 door Zenki! ...Or a RWD Camry? Lol... Thay need side skirts badly, but there's no redeeming that ass.... Looks the same coming or going.

[HyperTek]

G35s are coming down in price, so yeah, it would be hard to justify an m30/j30 over one in my opinion. I would just get borred with the lack of aftermarket lol

[PIEMAN909]

This makes me want to do something like this to my J30.

Besides what most people seem to not like about them. They are good cars.. Mine is running great and its been in the family for over 8 years.

[crash n' burn]

I miss my F31. bought it cheap as hell for $600 with 160k. drove 4 hours to pick another one that was mint but no title and had a blown trans, then stripped it for parts to fix up mine. 2yrs and 50,000 miles later it blew a HG right before i went to basic. the rents' scrapped it while i was gone. fucking loved that car. i've been searching for another one(worth a damn) for the past 4 years.

oh, and fuck a J30. ugly ass cars are about as cool as a bag of dicks; the rear end is atrocious. its an abomination to even compare them to a cressida.

the m30 exterior looks better than the j30. the j30 interior looks better than the m30.

[gusisboosted]

j30 interior swap an m30.....

I fucking love old boxy looks.
Cressidas and leopards have always been on the top of my to build list.

I really wish the m30 came in a wagon.

[crash n' burn]

Close..but since it's basically an r31 right, you can have one of them

[word sux]

why does no one build any m30 verts??? i have never seen a decent looking m30 vert in my life

[Reece]

M30 is my dream build. I was going to buy one shortly before I found my S13 but it sold right as I was going to get a ticket to fly down to California and pick it up. Bummed out. It had coilovers, Z32 5 speed swap, welded diff, straight piped, etc. I'll build one soon enough.

Think I should snag it???

How's the interior? Back seats normally crack and rip at the top. But, as long as the panels are straight and the bumpers are fucked up, that's a decent price. Check the rockers for rust by the rear wheels. See if they have the OEM keys as well; they're hard to come by.

Other than checking if the active suspension still works, it's like buying a normal early 90's Nissan.

[crash n' burn]

i don't ever think he got it running though. it was in there like swimwear, but i think the wiring was giving him some trouble.

they have soo much room for activities under the hood

yea he was making a custom subframe to fit the exhaust, and then the thread just stopped

[sil80d]

I have had my leopard for a few years now. It is the last of the 3 that had the future fab s14 rear subframe swap done to it. I import JDM parts for leopards. Unfortunately there isn't a large market for them. I just got these in. Complete late model head lamp set

Cash,
I have that m30
I was in GA when I picked it up
now it's in tx.
getting ready for paint, while I wait for the new harness.
finally fixing that dent in the driver side quarter panel.

I know it's the same car, same steering wheel. Can find it all over the web.
will post some pics when I get to a computer

It's about to get a nistune board + 550's. Had a holset hx 35 when I got it, still does.
I think it still had a smaller turbo on it when your friend had it.
:)
