Just when you thought you had it all.........

A fellow forum member sent me a link on Gumtree to this:

A 6 page fold out brochure on the ADM's.

Paid through the nose for it but I have never seen this version.

Cheers,

Bob.

Hi Guys,

I attended the shooting of a dealership promotional video for the upcoming VF Commodore.

A few Aussie/American and Japanese Muscle Cars were required to give the Commodore some presence.

Well...... that was the idea. Quite frankly I think it ran a poor last but anyway I thought I share some of the pics.

Cheers,

Bob.

On 9 news brisbane last night there was footage of a maroon adm gtr that had been stolen and run over road spikes. Bit of a mess, the owner must be shattered. Had aftermarket rims on it. Cant find any footage sorry.

Could this be the car? http://bit.ly/11SmOiI

Looks to me like it is a JDM that has had a roof aerial fitted to it.

LOL...... Had me going for a minute.

Yes an jDM that looks like aN ADM at first look.

Bob.

Yep, thats the car. I did only catch a glimpse of it on the telly and I always look for the roof antenna, so you can imagine my horror. Glad to hear it was a JDM not an ADM.

Hi All

I am selling the ADM GTR R32 I have so am looking for advice. It has never been modified except for fitting an engine immobilizer. Would I be correct in thinking it is the only one in as delivered condition? I don't want advertise it with any misleading statements. It's in very good condition otherwise.

No, quite a few are original. I'm pretty sure Bob's is 100% stock. It is certainly a strong selling point though and will assist with its value as there are numerous cars out there with various degrees of modification.

Yes...... Mine is 100% stock too as is Jim's up in Newcastle.

The ADM's are more likely to be stock as they would have been a big buy in their day and still are.

Your best saying "One of very few in original condition."

I think that is a fair statement.

Regards......

Bob.

BTW...... What will your asking price be? Any Pics?

Hi Bob

Thanks for the comments, "One of very few in original condition." is a better way to put it.

I am asking 60K. Shannons have it insured "agreed value" for 50k from 2 years ago.

I'd really like to have a get together one day as Jim and I are a bit isolated up here.

Couple of photos, the handbrake and I. I don't normally look that stupid but it's the best I've got.

Regards

John

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
