Perhaps it should have had slightly better security.....

Perhaps people should not be stealing other people's property.....

Something something about medieval punishments being appropriate sometimes

Probably on a container ship heading to either the US or a very hot country.

Hopefully it gets driven 😆

I assume some busted arse rusty one may be getting a new lease of life

Are the chassis numbers stamped on the JDM/AUD models? Or just the riveted on plate?

Stamped

Could just add material, grind down and use something like this.

Lol... Or just drill out, reweld on another firewall, maybe from another GT-R or a GTS-4, Gracer vibes lolololol.

This happens more than people know, there's lots of money to be made rebirthing cars

Lots of rusted hulk or crashed "collectable" cars are "refreshed" this way

An adm gtr is going to stand out like dogs balls 

[r32-25t]

Well to the people who would be interested in buying a gtr anyway,

And a JDM VIN on an ADM shell will trigger raised eyebrows even quicker too!

Meh, once you swap all the JDM parts onto a ADM shell you wouldn't really notice

Whilst there was a few things that the ADM required for compliance here, it's all bolt on stuff really isn't it

The only tricky work would be the cut and shut on the firewall where the stamps are

The rest is basic nut, bolt, respray if you use a donor for the body numbers, block and other parts

ADM cars had diff coolers and a few other things that would leave traces that you'd have to clean up.
