Sorry Bob, what I meant to say was "is $45k the starting price to get into an ADM from here on in"

The black WA car is still up for sale for $44,995.

Price drop........

There is a silver ADM for sale here in WA with 250,000 km, the guy is asking $30k for it.

Were is this advertised ???

[RB26DETT 240Z]

The silver one for $30,000 is being sold by Andrew @ hyperdrive Motorsport . I don't think it's advertised anywhere as such.

That black car on Carsales.com.au in WA is originally a jet silver coloured car as per KG1 code on the compliance plate.

That's sad......

A collector won't touch it with a barge pole and an enthusiast will buy a nice JDM for half the money.

I sincerely wish the seller all the best but I just can't fathom who would buy it?

[gtr fan]

Yep thats been for sale for a while. I ampretty sure I saw it for sale for a lot less on this forum a few years ago.

Different colour

Different seat material

and different engine block

There is no way anyone would pay a premium for that car.

The question is who would pay "anything" for that car?

[Marko R1]

Well the car would still be a better buy than a JDM if u wanted certainty around service history.

You could easily respray it back to silver.

With regards to the engine number, what are the rules around buying a blank block from nissan and restamping it with the original numbers? I think if the original engine number was not reported stolen or registered = feasible solution for the right enthusiast.

This is all based on buying the car at the right price.

[Duncan]

Absolutely. You only have to see how much people have paid for rusted out falcons with the right VIN#. Collector world is kind of a parallel universe.

New blocks from Nissan come without an engine number, you are expected to stamp the original number onto it when you install it. In any case Nissan (including FAST) does not provide a link between engine number and vin# so you cannot prove a claim that an engine is or is not original.

[Marko R1]

The issue with FAST results is that there is a link between Vin and engine number on ADM logbooks.

That car could make a good restoration project, are u going to buy it Duncan

[Duncan]

Yeah I'll do one, one day. A ground up restoration would be interesting.

[bBlack]

Just an update on mine. Still for sale with 'offers' put on the add. I have had interest.Nothing progressing to people actually coming to look at the car. With regards to restoring one, it can become really expensive. If you can't do most of the work yourself, accept my words of wisdom and don't buy one that needs major restoration. I also have (for those that are old enough to know) a Valiant VH E55 Charger that needs restoration and was quoted 80 grand (turn key) by a popular Mopar shop in sydney. A guy i know, can do it as a roller for 20 grand. You still need to do the drive train and chase other parts that may be hard to get. It adds up..

I have a friend that owns a genuine E38 RT twin filler, silver in colour which is naturally the best colour for any car

It is a beautiful piece of bathurst history.

Hi All,

I was going through some old photos and came across the attached R32 GTR ADM.

It appears to be a Promo car for Recaro and was displayed at the 1993 Melbourne Motor Show and is dark green in colour. It looks standard on the outside apart from the aftermarket wheels and repaint.

The ADM features are there, roof mounted aerial, tail lights etc.

I wonder if it survived??

I've mentioned this car in this thread before and was ignored every time,

Last I saw the car was owned by a guy in sydney

[Aussie_Delivered_R32_GTR]

I've seen this car featured in a few of my old car magazines.

Thanks Bob, I took those pictures back in 1993 (when some of the guys on here were not even born), with a real camera that you had to go the shop to get the film developed.

I was very much interested in these cars back then, even though I was a Holden fan and drove my V8 around everywhere. BTW, I still have the V8 (garaged and covered).

Perhaps, this "RECARO" GTR can be also added to the list under "others" or similar as it is now Green and doesn't fall into one of the 3 colours available.

Regards,

Tony

Here you go Tony..........

I just scanned this out of Australian Road and Track Feb 1993.

It was featured in a couple more mags but I just don't have time to find them all.

Hmmmmmm Attachments dont work?

[Aussie_Delivered_R32_GTR]

Maybe this works?
