That car is awesome. The level of detail is amazing for a 20 year old car .Looks like it just rolled of the line.Love it

:action-smiley-069: :action-smiley-069: :action-smiley-069:

Appreciate you kind words.........

I can assure you that a lot of elbow grease went into making it look as it does but it's certainly worth it.

Cheers,

Bob.

I had a fabulous time at the Legends dinner last night and probably drove Fred Gibson cuckoo with questions! :worship: :worship: :worship:

Anyway, what I did find very interesting is that he confirmed that very early in the piece, they totally stripped 3 ADM cars for race cars.

He went on to say that the road going components were sold off to a Victorian wrecking yard. After that, ( by mid/late 1991) they had rolling shells to work with.

Unfortunately, the GIO car got about $12K's worth of battle scars at a recent outing.. OUCH!

Cheers,

Bob.

Looks like a great event .Wouldve been awesome to see the GIO race car in real life even though its not in the best condition at the moment .I love there trailer wouldnt mind one of those haha .So Bob is that another one to be added to the list ?

lucky bob - i unfortunately missed again this year due to other commitments (same thing happened last year).

those pics with fred & jim next to your car is worth framing!

what happened to the gio gtr, how did he lose control? looks like a complete animal with battle marks on it

another great find bob!

i ordered the godzilla book from pitstop, there is a backlog but should expect a copy within 2 weeks as they asked "is this is a xmas present?"...well...it is so im not lying :rolleyes:

does anybody know what this plate is for?

i am referring to the blue compliance plate which sits directly above the engine cover, on the firewall.

i dont have this on my adm & ive never seen it on any other adm gtr...just curious?

Yep........ Looks like you are correct.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
