Over the weekend, I finally purchased an Australian Delivered GTR (which I previously owned) as it was always my intention to buy it back (hence why I stayed in touch with the owner for 5.5years). Originally my mate owned it for 7 years (1996 – 2002) then I owned it for 3 years (2003 – 2006) & I bought back after it was meticulously cared for 5.5 years :).

It has only traveled 5000km over the past 5.5years.

Colour: Jet Silver Metallic KJ1G

Delivered: Aug 1991

Sold: Aug 1994

Number: 60 of 100 (16942)

KMS: 102000 (with full service history, log books & original spare keys)

Dealership: Nissan Hobart TAS

Owners: 3

Purchased: Apr 11

Locale: Sydney NSW

Currently the car has a few bolt on mods, however, the stock bits which have been swapped out are retained.

That's great news, congratulations.

Maybe a few of us "Aussie owners" should get together for a luncheon or something. I'm happy to coordinate things if that's of any interest to others?

Post some pics if you can. If not email them to me and I can resize them and post them for you if you want.

Congrats again and let me know if a meet and great is of interest.

Bob.

Im up for it but am geographically challenged.

Maybe we can work with you? What area are you in?

I'm thinking of Tuesday April 26 as this has been declared as a public holiday due to Easter Monday conflicting with Anzac Day.

Let's get some feedback and see if this day is any good.

Bob. :thanks: :thanks: :thanks:

Looks stunning! :cheers:

I'm in Castle Hill but don't mind travelling within reason.

Black Plates with silver lettering would be my preference but it's up to you.

I'm getting pretty excited about meeting a few of you so if we only end up with 4-5 that's fine too. BUT.........if we get 10 or more I'd be ecstaticc. :worship: :worship:

Bob.

I wish :( I haven't rego'd my car since my daughter was born 2.5 years ago. I last went for a drive to a Dyno Day where I met Terry_GT-R34 and his son. Also needs new timing belt /waterpump etc and to fix some leaking manifold gaskets. All of which I intend to do by end of winter.

So after that love to come out and see some other ADM GTR's!!

I'm in Rouse Hill so not that far.

Sounds good............ I may be able to get my mate who recently bought the red one to come.

If we get 4 cars that's not too bad.

:cheers:

Bummer...... I re-read the post after I posted my reply. Shame, it would have been great to have all 3 colours.

Anyway..... is there anyone out there that has a 100% STOCK JDM?

If so, it would be a great opportunity to take some side by side photos of the Aussie vs. Japanese models showing off the differences.

Bob.

      Rear suspension upgrades

      I think the pic in the first post is another car, and post 7 is OP's car with standard arms and swaybar swaybar swaybar. I can't tell what brand the silver coilovers are, and even if I could I don't know whether the spring rate is OK, if you can find a brand on the shocks and numbers on the springs that might help. Also, if you can measure the ride height from centre of your wheel to the guard that will help with advice too as handling suffers if ride height is too low

      In the first photo you posted, the colour of the control arms are the signature colour for Ikeya. Same for the swaybar, signature colour for Whiteline.  I like Hardrace, they also do hardened rubber bushes if your car is mainly a street car.  I like GKTech as well, but they use a lot of rose joints in their stuff so might not be the best choice for everyone.  The system might have been good back in its day, but it's a prehistoric system now. I suspect that most people have removed the HICAS as they want the car to do what they want to do, not what the car wants to do. From what I also understand, it isn't consistent in it's behaviour on track so it's hard to trust the car/know where its absolute limits are for track use.  Having said that, I think the HICAS eliminator kit was the first thing I installed when I bought my car. I don't personally have any experience with the HICAS system on a race track.

      Thanks for the info. Didn’t know I had aftermarket control arms already? Will talk to my garage. What brand would u recommend if I want to play around with my camber more? I would think my camber is around stock level right now or more negative now due to lowering with coilovers. I will be lower her again 1.5 cm to get some more.    also why does everyone like to remove the hicas system? Is it because most don’t work properly anymore or ppl just don’t like them. Mine is functioning as it should be right now.    thanks for the good info

      It looks like you've got Ikeya control arms and an aftermarket sway bar, maybe whiteline?  Or am I just going crazy? lol Unfortunately it won't, but what it will do is look really pretty. That's about all unfortunately.  How much neg camber do you currently have? Generally lowing the car dials in quite a bit of neg camber as it is. If you do go down this path, your best bet is get adjustable arms, toe arms (or preferably a good HICAS elimination kit) and traction rods. With all 3 being adjustable, you'll be able to dial out any bump steer that is introduced by playing with the camber settings.
