Aussie_Delivered_R32_GTR

Hi Guys, Just thought I'd post a bit of an update with some pics....... The trim and bodywork is pretty much completed all bar a bit of touch up stuff. I'd say we are 95% of the way there but there are always things that could be improved. Cheers, Bob.

Great........ Did they get the oxygen (and GT-R) thieves that stole it? I'm sure Shannons would be happy to sell it back to you at the payout figure providing you weren't grossly under insured.... Bob.

Yeah.... I think you are correct but as you say it's listed with both lyrics...... "Bring" makes a lot more sense than "Green"........ For those who haven't seen it, this is a great car chase.... http://www.youtube.c...Nhj72Hyk6Q&NR=1 If that waters your appetite and you've got a spare 2 hrs or so, here is the complete movie, the song starts at the 1:03 mark..... http://www.youtube.c...0XLPCqpxMI&NR=1 I've forgotten how to display the clip into the post, so if someone could do that I'd be grateful. Cheers, Bob.

I live in Castle Hill and travel all over the place for work. When I have an 8:00am appointment at Kensington I leave at 6:25 and make it with 10 minutes to spare. I suggest you do the same........ As you said better being 15 early than 15 late. Cheers, Bob.

Yes...... I've been warned about those..... I'll keep my prayer book handy! Bob.

Hi Terry, It's not the dash cluster, it's the entire dashboard........ The original guages, vents and wiring are all the original. I'm only changing it because I hate the dash bubble that is in mine. I hope that is clear to the person who is doing the work. Cheers, Bob.

Deal done.......... No replies required. Many thanks Bob.

Hi Guys, I bought a replacement dash for my JDM R32 as I couldn't handle the ugly dash bubble in the usual spot. It's like a big zit between your eyes! :woot: Is there anyone here experienced it swapping over these dash's? I'd prefer people not to practice on my car for the first time. If you have done this before and want some cash I'm happy to oblige. Your place or mine, Saturday mornings would be ideal but I'm happy to work in with you. I'm in Castle Hill but happy to travel to you if need be. I'd naturally pay more if you come to me. Let me know what's a fair price but as I said......... I don't want a rookie with no experience. Cheers, Bob.

Yes but that doesn't mean it can't be a std GT-R..... Non Vspec. Bob.

Absolutely!!!!!!! Post it up. Bob.

I'm not sure who you are talking to but I am interested in bringing both my ADM and JDM. I think it would be quite interesting having two totally stock (including exhaust and radio cassette players etc....LOL) side by side. I just need to work out the logistics and whether to do it at this show or the SAU Nationals... I doubt I'd do it twice. BTW... Apologies if your question wasn't targeted towards me........ Bob.

Hi Marko....... You've done a great job with this register. To enhance it further, we need to identify the VIN which then can be linked to the build number. I'm just a bit concerned as to the amount of double /triple ups that may have occurred within the current register. Ideally things we need to document are - VIN Build Number Colour Mileage Date of Awareness of the car's existence. Modifications/ Changes Selling Dealer Number of Owners Current Location - (State) Historic Info If you can think of other points of interest then all the better. I know that's a hell of a challenge but wouldn't it be great if we could compile all that! Cheers, Bob.

Here you go mate..... http://www.users.on.net/~goofyhsk/info/chassis_plate.html Bob.

Actually it didn't........ It was listed here - http://www.igoulburn.com/Events/2012-SAU-Nationals.aspx Thanks for the clarification though.... Cheers, Bob.

Buggered if I can find it....... I googled it and it came up as November 16, 17, 18. Is that correct? Thanks, Bob.

Have we got a date for the SAU Nationals? Thanks......

No Marko, it's my mates and it should be on the list. We've spoken about it before. The JDM is mine as of 8 weeks ago...... Bob.

For those who may find this interesting, here is a copy of a post I made in the Skyline Specific section covering ADM's. Hi Guys, Here are a few more direct comparisons. I was at Sydney Dragway today and a mate of mine with an ADM parked next to my JDM. I was going to do this comparison with my ADM but having his car there I thought I'd post up a pic or two. As previously posted, you can see the rear tail light configuration is different. The ADM gets vinyl sun visors as opposed to the JDM which gets velour covered ones. Skyline badge on the bonnet vs Nissan badge. The ADM gets factory fitted 300ZX side blinkers, JDM gets generic Bosch or Mitsubishi blinkers. ADM gets High/Low dimmer switch, JDM gets fog light switch. As also stated before, ADM gets Blaupunct/Bosch Auto Flex centre roof aerial. There are many more changes that I'll document one I guess a chance. Cheers, Bob.

Thanks Terry, Got my car back from my motor trimmers on Friday and I'm thrilled with his work. Here are a few pics from today at Sydney Dragway.......

To be honest with you I couldn't really understand what this jibberer was on about! Anyway........As is already documented within this topic, I've bought a JDM R32 GT-R which I'm restoring to a reasonably high standard. It's at my trimmers until tomorrow and the goes into the panel shop on Monday to have a fair bit done. I intend to post up before and after pics plus a direct comparison with the ADM. Cheers, Bob.

I little belated but I too would like to thank the organisers. Great run ........ Cheers, Bob.

Sorry .......Double post.

Morning all....... I'm going to bring my JDM R32 out for a run. See you at the meeting point..... Bob.
