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?

Thanks Bob,

Interesting article with the lap times of the Recaro/Momo GTR within 3 secs of the race GTR lap record (Oran Park). I wonder whether that was with the factory boost limiter in place or removed?

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.

Nissan Australia did keep a track of engine number as the original number is stamped on the plate on the firewall for Australian Delivered examples and is also documented in the delivery certificate paperwork.

ADM GTRs have a unique VIN so they wont come up in FAST.

Agree FAST does not list engine number details for JDM versions, only way to track would be if the original Japanese delivery paperwork was with the car. This, from my experience is very very rare, original service history is very hard to get let alone any other documents for JDM's.

Is this one on the list??

Black ADM 170Ks in Carins. One owner, no modifications, asking 45K.

Has a separate listing for the number plate too.

A bit steep for a car with 170,000 km's.

And it has an aftermarket exhaust.

He also want $20K for those custom plates:

:rofl:

IF money was no object id go the red one on carsales for $75K with 31,000kms.

Better value overall IMO.

Jim's red GTR now listed as $70000 asking price represents great value for an immacculate and original car, in my opinion.

On 9 news brisbane last night there was footage of a maroon adm gtr that had been stolen and run over road spikes. Bit of a mess, the owner must be shattered. Had aftermarket rims on it. Cant find any footage sorry.

poor bloke

Could it be 'ONBAIL' gtr with gold gold rims?

Not sure man, just got a glimpse of the footage and looked straight for the antenna which to my surprise there was one.

Agreed Chris on the proviso that there's an inverse proportion between value and kilometres (as well as condition).

I saw this Silver R32 GTR ADM today in Melbourne traffic- Cnr Spencer and Dudley Sts, West Melb.

Do we have this one on the list?

Just letting you know this is 17258 build number 99

Hello all as i have known of this for a while now i shall let you in on a little secret. Alot of you dont know that you can retrieve info from your local road authority of your state over the internet. So if you have a rego of a vehicle and you want to find out the chassis/engine numbers each state will either give you a full or part of these details. So that is how i found the details of the silver gtr from melbourne by the rego and here are some short cuts to help you all out. This also helps to verify details when buying a car.

Yeah, I have been using the online info for awhile now to verify car details etc, but I was more interested in the personal side of things of whether you knew the owner.

You don't see many of these around anymore and especially in peak hour traffic!

    • I’m thinking that’s the route I’ll  go, thanks for the input!
    • Hey all, my 2004 Nissan Skyline 350GT overheated the other day with coolant boiling and leaking out of the coolant reservoir when I was parking. So today, I started it up again just to see if it was a thermostat/head gasket issue. After about 20 mins of running, temps were normal again, no coolant was leaking out and the upper reservoir hose was warm but my engine suddenly cut off. I checked the oil dipstick and cap when it was running and there was no white foamy residue and the exhaust did not have white smoke. I tried starting up the car again but it would only crank, similar to when I had a camshaft sensor issue just that now there’s no check engine light on the dash. Any ideas? Unfortunately I don’t have an OBD2 that can read the Nissan's programme.
    • Bump on this to not make another post, had a ‘head drain’ leak on me and have the engine out as we speak. Planning on just putting a new freeze plug back in , plug the tapped holes and just be done with that headache.    Now I still want to relieve pressure to allow oil to pass down the blocks returns easier. I’ve seen catch cans with multiple vents help folks with this issue on this forum.  I’m wanting to make my own. I have some pictures here of my setup if anyone can help how I should plumb and design the catch can I would deeply appreciate it !   rb25 Oil upgrades: 1.0mm restrictor n1 pump/billet gears extended crank collar  extended sump with trap doors/w welded fitting    
    • The Frenchy's kit is the way to go forward. A modern compressor that weighs about 1/2 as much, is at least twice as efficient, and will do a good job on R134a. And of course the kit has everything else you need to connect it up and have it work properly.
    • Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.
