From memory 1984 (Rovers) was churns and 1985 (Jags) was an overhead rig, no maybe we didn't use overhead rigs until the BMW's. Too many Bathursts ago, 1,000's and 12 Hour races to remember, maybe time I got the video out again myself. When they were used, the churns were filled from 44's, which were on scales to record their usage. My pit job was crunching numbers, TWR had their own technicians, no Aussies got to touch the cars much at all.

is there much demand for the 84 rover as per pic as shown in post no.86?

my uncle passed in jan this year & handed this car to me just before, biege with only 75000km, 3.5ltr v8 with 5speed, forged bottom end, touring car style wheels as per pic - it was his pride joy :P

One of these went on ebay about 4 years ago for an astounding AUD$104! For a sticker!

I picked one up for under AUD$10, also from evilbay. You don't see these around very often now.

i'd like 1 of these stickers for my big toolbox, maybe even the back window of my gtr...where is it best to get 1, ebay?

Mine was free, and will never be sold. Lived a few doors down from a mechanic who used to work on the GMS cars, whom now works for Apprenticeships Victoria. His name has slipped my mind at this moment.

I guess after seeing a stream of modded 31's, a 1600 and stagea out the front he thought I would appreciate it!

I got mine off evilbay but they come up so infrequently - in fact I've only ever seen two there - the one that went for over AUD$100 (it actually went for $102 now I've checked!!!) and mine.

Attached is a resized scan. Mine doesn't appear to have the Nissan logo on the left either.

    • Indeed. Mitsuoka always did their magic on various Nissan models, but because the Nouera was going to be in the medium sized sedan class, they decided not to try and modify the 2004 P12 Nissan Primera because it looked too modern combined with the 1940's styling. It would contrast way too much so they went with the more suitable CL7 Accord... 😆
    • It's also funny when an Australian company is boasting how their warehousing is USA/Europe...      
    • Hi People, has anyone come up with a way of getting non-driven wheel speed on a R32 Gts/gtst? from what i've seen the RWD R32 didn't look to come with ABS, if they did i can't find a rwd ABS front knuckle anywhere. is it a case of putting a S14/R33 front knuckle on and then modifying the ASB ring to suit a ECU input frequency limit? or have people managed to get a hall sensor onto the back of the hub and pick up the wheel studs?   i've searched but there isn't anything that I could find.
    • I was thinking about a hoist, the ceiling is very high, but half the garage has a half-height loft for storage and I dont think I'll even be able to jack the X5 up under it as it almost hits me in my 6'5" elevated head when i walk in there. And, yeah nah, maybe if I can convince Bec to let me get another car she'd be open to having as many as we can fit (cough @Duncan) but until that time you better steer clear! 🤣
    • For the sake of cost comparison, I’m currently embarking on putting a new 5 speed into my R33. I imported a new RB25DET gearbox from Japan, which was about AU$3.3k delivered to my door. It was a very slow process (~2 months) and I got extremely lucky with the exchange rate. The twin plate clutch I bought was about AU$1.8k. I've also had to buy all the additional parts required to convert the gearbox from a pull type clutch to a push type clutch. Total cost is about AU$5.5k, so GTSBoy is pretty close to the money.
