  1. May have been sold in 92 but built in 91. Mine was number 16141 built in May 91 (I think) but delivered in Oct 92 directly from Nissan Aust to first owner.
  2. Count me in. Member No: 325 Can I pay on the day?
  3. I'll be there - and will pay cash on the day
  4. Count me in. John_AUSGTR Money Transferred but could not use Username as had underscore in it. Used Membership Number (325) in reference details.
  5. Am I too late? Only saw the event today. Can do bank transfer tomorrow morning (Thursday) If all okay count me in. John P
  6. Hicas - check power steering fluid level which is probably low. Topping up it fixed mine instantly
  7. Thanks mjtown - at least I know where to go if I win lotto Bob - that's a very good idea. Thanks for your help guys............now to find some seats
  8. Hi guys, My well used ADM (the old Linfox car) with 205k on the odo is currently going through with some "renovations" - mainly because parts are wearing out. I've just had a complete engine rebuild with new crank, pistons, turbos and clutch so that box is ticked - started off just wanting to do the clutch and timing belt....something about a looseish harmonic balancer from a previous owner. Anyway the next items are the seats. The drivers side back rest bolster has worn through to the foam (just). Only option is replace or recover. All R32 GTR seats are getting old now and only the pristine cars will not need sorting out. Any of you good people know what can be done to re-cover the seats? I've spoken to an automotive upolsterer here in Brisbane who's told me the covers are glued onto the foam and it can't taken off without taking half the foam with it. His option was to put new covers over the existing - it makes sense but I don't know enough about it and it's not my preferred option. Any feedback on other ideas or potential repairers (including interstate) will be much appreciated John
  9. Think you may have got number 5 on your list (John P) +1 confused with a another John from "dad pays the bills". My name was carried over from last Sunday's cancelled event. If it's easier, just rename John P to John_AUSGTR - only me coming. "dad pays the bills" +1 must be a new entry
  10. No 9 (ex-Linfox) and No 28 (EXD441) are the same car as well - its retired to Qld
  11. I can add some more info on the Linfox car thanks to the fellow with the Wheels article. The original registration plate according to the Delivery Docket in the Warranty Booklet was EXD 441 which is the car illustrated in the article. At least I can prove how fast she'll go now. What year and month was the article in Wheels? I've been collecting Wheels since 1979 so I should have it somewhere.
  12. I found a very bad quality video of the 93 Targa and Barletts car didn't have the painted lip as you said - bad memory on my part as I hadn't watched it since 2006. Jim Richards was driving a Porsche 968 in the video and I think rollcages were required after 93 after some BIG shunts in the 93 Targa (300ZX, Austin Healy, 911) I have no idea if it has had a re-spray but someone must have painted the front lip and did a dodgey repair of the front left (part of the bumper reo was missing). i found the original delivery docket and i was pretty close: Manufactured: 28 June 1991 (Chassis 16141) 1st registered: 12/10/1992 with victorian rego Owner: Linfox Transport (Aust) P/L Dealer: Nissan Australia, Burwood Road, Hawthorn Colour Code: AH3 Burgundy Given the colour differences with the other photos and the prang (which I intend to get properly repaired) it may very well have had a respray before I bought it in 2004. Be great if i could see a clear shot of the wheels on Bartlet's car because I think that's the key. Good to see there are still a good number of ADM GTR's being enjoyed and preserved
