Yep. Its in there under section 280.

We had a different engine control unit by the looks.

They changed the speed limiter from 180kmh to some unobtainable number.

Also for what it is worth the highest octane unleaded you could buy in Australia in 1992 was ......95.

Ahh ok, what did the bidding get up to Bob?

I don't know as I wasn't at the auction.

That part is misleading anyway as the auctioneers run phantom bids up near the reserve hoping someone will bid to cover the reserve price. If a car has a reserve of $40K, they will run the bidding up to mid-high $30's and hope it crosses the line or at least get close enough to submit the bid and negotiate after the auction. I have bought and sold cars at Shannons auctions so I understand their strategy.

You can't read it now but I remember looking at the inspection report on this car and it did have leaking turbos and quite a few other necessary repairs.

Not withstanding all of that, it looks a lovely car.

Throw a few grand at it and enjoy owning a rare classic!

Bob.

nice pics bob - you obviously love your gtr :)

Yes I do but I was just as interested to see what quality difference there is in my Sony Cybershot camera and my iPhone 4.............

I think the iPhone colouring is actually slightly better!

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
