It may have been purchased brand new form Japan but I very much doubt it was delivered by Nissan Aus.

nissan aust only delivered limited numbers with the r32 which most of us proudly own in this thread - my brothers gtr is an odd 1 though...its an 89 r32gtr which was in fact sold here in aust as a 'low volume import' by scuderia in vic (his is numbered 001 of only 6 units). it was held in the scuderia showroom for a number of years then sold to its 1st owner in march 91 here in syd to a high profile individual.

no, no its not.

makes me proud to have a silver gtr :)

you can hear some turbo shuffle just like mine!

OK, it must be the red one that my old GTR donated its parts to.

i wouldn't want to be the owner of an ADM gtr with swapped out parts - that would piss me off as a buyer (but thats just me)

Which, will all due respect, makes your bro's car a grey import just like any other.

There were several businesses doing similar things in the early nineties, I recall new Soarers for $150k and new supras for $180k! lol Those vehicles aren't worth any more than any other.

that is interesting as i thought if it was sold here in aust as a local car - it would be worth more than an import, due to its local service history (similar to an ADM gtr)?

oh well, makes my gtr better than his :)

Nah, it was the simple things like rocker covers, valley covers, cam covers and the other bits and pieces that he needed.

Funded my first trip to Jap and the first container back, well worth it.

Late comer onto this thread. Haven't been on SAU for a while now.

Here's my OZ R32.

Black.

102,000km

Unsure to whom and where it was sold to originally. Nothing written in the books ???

VIN:15973

Believe to be owner or raced by Kevin Bartlett at some stage. Not sure if that was just a sale pitch form the guy I bought it from (sounded good at the time). If any one can shed a bit of light on that subject would be good. It has definitely been raced at some stage of its life as it has a number of holes in the body which would indicate a role cage.

I've had it for nearly 8 yrs now and still have a huge grin from ear to ear after driving it.

hi craig,

nice gtr!

as per your sig, can u enlighten me on your 2 stroke making 8000hp :)

i used to luv my 2 stroke race bikes (rgv & rs250)

Used to work for a Oil and gas company that used to use what are called 12V149 Detriot diesels as big water pumps. Sound fantastic when they working hard. 12V meaning V 12 engine. 149 being. 149 cubic inch per cylinder. Big. Use huge amounts of fuel. and leave you with smile a mile wide.

    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
    • Remember reading about this not too long ago. been for sale for a long time  this is like when the wife says you need to sell the car so you put it up for a ridiculous price no one will pay
    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like
