Whose car is being used in Wheels Magazine showroom section next month?

This month is a GT Falcon but for next month is a PIC of a mica red ADM GTR.

Don't know but it will be good publicity for us anyway..............

Nice to meet you too mate! Very pretty GTR btw, they look great in black!

i didnt even know an aussie gtr was featured on wheels this month, anyone have a scan of the cover? what colour is it?

Hey Marko,

It has a white C63 on the cover.

The GTR was wine red mica, looks mint as well!

It was just a 2 page spread but nice pics.

Sorry for the clarification but you are saying the issue featuring the GT-R is out now or coming out soon?

Thanks,

Bob.

Ok, this is a pic from last weekends SAU Hinterland cruise on the sunny coast. My car is on the right and (Brad can help me with the name) is on the left. Check out the colour difference! The photo doesnt do it justice, there was a massive difference betwenn the two. The car on the left is a series one whereas mine is the second batch to hit the country, surely Nissan didnt change paint supplier in between the two batches??

Has anyone else managed to lineup a pair of wine red's next to each other?

they are very different & there are 2 different paint codes with the jap versions, however, i thought that wasnt the case with the ADM's

why does your gtr have clear indicators? did u change them?

also, has yours been resprayed or your mates gtr been resprayed? i definitely prefer your colour, looks much nicer & more red in it whereas the other gtr has a hint of purple in it

Edited by Marko R1

My paint is original and has not had a respray. The other car was a bit dirty but even so in the flesh they seem to be 2 completely different colours.

On to the clear indicators, Ive no idea why they were changed nor do I know why one of the previous 2 owners had the brake calipers sprayed gold although it might have been to match some wheels, either way, silly move. Its just another one of the things I will rectify when time (motivation) permits.

All the ADM Wine Red Mica I have seen are like your color RBNT.

The other may have been resprayed given that the front lip is also painted.

I think the side indicators on ADM are the same as 300zx aren't they?

Also for what its worth I love the navy blue colour.

Im not sure what the indicators come off??

Marko, you want to do a swap?

Also, the owner of the other ADM car thinks that his car may have been used as a targa car. The old school Harrop brakes makes me think the same, they would have been worth their weight in gold back then, probably still are.

Here are three other photos of Red Pearl Metallic (Code AH3G). The Australian version was not called Red Wine Metallic.

151 HHZ simply has too much purple in the mix. All the others are bordering on brown. If you look under the bonet of our cars it is more brown than burgandy.

I'm loathed to accuse someone of their car has being painted if they don't know, nor would I state that from a photo............. But..............

If you look at the production dates of all the 100 cars you will see that they were all done within 3 months of each other and all from the same Murayama factory.

There is no way the same code could vary so much, it just doesn't happen.

Bob.

i want to keep mine - i was thinking if the 300zx items were direct replacements & same colour orange?

    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
