Just scanned this out of old car magazine, thought it may be of interest to fellow admirers of the Nissan/Gibson cars.

I have a few more I'll post up in the coming weeks.

Apologies for the crappy image joining.

Cheers

the R32 must have been a revelation when it was released in 1989.

it pisses me off when people compare the earlier GTR's to more modern performance cars without realising how revolutionary they must have been at the time of their release.

even when the R33 was released, it was as fast if not faster than the lower end porsches and ferraris of the day (infact there's an old top gear video doing the rounds which compares said cars).

Hi Muz,

Sure is....might be for sale at the moment as well!

Is the collection being broken up? Does Terry still have the cars on display? Haven't spoken to him for ages.

As far as i know the Formula Holden had been de-commissioned as a race car.

Don't know about him completely breaking the collection up, but his R31 the #5 car has been sold to Chris(who also owns the Sizzler Car). The Exa has also been sold and I think the Gazelle might go as soon as it's finished as well....the Gazelle would be a great buy for the 2Lt class...wish I had the money. As for the Formula Fordon I think your right about the de-commission...still alot of people who would like that car though...me for one....pity I'm not a short arse like Skaife though so I can fit in it(punt).

That's a fair bit of the Gibson stuff gone (or going) from Terry. Still has more than enough exotic road/race cars than most of us could imagine and a true gentleman to go with it.

Here's the front cover report from AA from Bathurst '92. Those were the days.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.

      Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.

      WGNC34 - floor mats

      By Marek · Posted

      Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
