I have seen one of the ex pace cars. It was completely factory except it was British racing green but was so long ago I wouldn't even know where the car was anymore.

Edit: I was told at the time it was the pace car for the 92 Bathurst and if you watch footage it was definitely a British racing green Aussie Gtr

Yes....... The car you are referring to was Bob Roman's (Autotek) Recaro/Momo promotional car.

I have a few articles on it and I'm sure in one of them it comments on a black to green paintjob.

It had numerous different paint/wheel and trim schemes.

Here are a couple of articles on it, unfortunately I need to go to work so I post them all up.

It looks black in the attachments but in the actual magazine you can clearly see it's a dark metallic green.

Cheers,

Bob.

Good work bob!! that is the car, when I saw it 10 years ago it had a different set of momo wheels on it and now that you say it I remember them mentioning it being a momo promo car.

When I get home from Fiji I will ring my friend to see if he still knows where it is

Ok....... Sorry for the delay but day to day life got in the way.

Attached is a new spreadsheet with the correct build numbers matched to VIN's in sequential order from lowest to highest.

With the correction surrounding the 15145/16145 anomaly (myself included), anyone who has/had a build number under 45 needs to deduct 1.......... I go from 27 back to 26 etc.

The final count of colours within the 100 ADM's is:

  • 44 Red Pearl Metallic's - Paint Code AH3
  • 32 Black Pearl Metallic's - Paint Code 732
  • 24 Jet Silver Metallic's - Paint Code KG1
Based on my research and information supplied within these 50+ pages, these numbers are much more in line than the previously published ones. The 37/Red, 37/Silver and 26/Black theory just doesn't stack up.

Whilst as a matter of respect to my informant, I won't post up a complete list of colours mated to VIN's but if anyone has a one off enquiry, I'm happy to supply the info via PM's.

Cheers,

Bob.

Hey Bob,

Can you confirm what colour is supposed to be on build number 016045.

Regards,

Hey guys, I thought I would update you on a recent purchase........

I purchased build number 63 a few weeks back and unveiled it at last weeks 25th Anniversary get-together.

She needed a little bit of TLC which was given. It's now getting close to being where I want it to be.

Cheers,

Bob.

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
