What is the book "Aussie Godzilla" that you are referring to?

Is it a properly published book with ISBN, or does it exist online with a weblink?

Thank you!

Here you go..........

From what I know it was imported before Nissan did?

Wrong colour but worth adm money if right?

From my understanding, only the 3-4 prototypes plus the 100 documented ADM's are worth ADM money.

That said, even the prototypes are debatable.

Some say they are worth more, some say not as much. It's a tricky one I guess.

I know little about the Scuderia cars.

If they are just grey imports before Nissan finalised their 100 cars then that's what they are...... "Grey Imports" and should be priced accordingly.

I don't see why they should bring a premium, let alone ADM money.

Could anyone clarify exactly what they are?

Thanks,

Bob.

Have to find a good second hand unit local (try FS car parts & accessories $50ish)

New appx $850 AUD from Amayama

No Idea if Nissan parts could help you out or be cheaper

Second hand ones are not worth the effort. Better off with a reconditioned item.

My brother has owned 001 of 006 ever made Scuderia R32 GTRs since 1999 I think...it's original as per factory. Jet Silver Metallic :)

Only 6 were made which was sold locally back in 89. It does not carry any ADM parts such as roof aerial, tail lights, side indicators etc.

They were fitted with the n1 body kit (front bar snorkels, bonnet and boot lip) and also has unique Scuderia branded dash, bootlid badge and compliance plate).

If u search the SAU rare skyline thread I did post pics a few yrs ago.

Not really as they were sold here in Aust with local compliance. The changes on the Scuderia are not really far off the JDM, but then again the ADM is also not far off from the JDM which I think makes the Scuderia as valuable as the ADM...then again, Its probably the rarest R32 GTR which might even outweigh the ADM.

Yeah Scuderia in VIC imported them and sold here as new. He has full documentation and the service log was a joke...7k for a service back in early 90s. My brothers car in particular was sold in 92 as it was on the showroom floor at Scuderia for its first 3 years of its life.

We have had no luck in tracking down the other 5. Ive looked for years on the net with nil result. Probably ended up as race cars hence cannot track them as registered vehicles, or written off

Just spotted in South Hurstville a maroon ADM with plates 1959CF. Sorry couldn't get a pic...another one for the list which I need to update

OK......... We have a problem with that one.

I ran a check through myRTA rego and history check and that rego comes up as a 2006 Ford Falcon!

Either it had an other states rego plate of the guy is swapping plates to avoid number plate recognition in police cars as the car would be unregistered.

Cheers,

Bob.

    • What an awesome idea to fit the facelift Lamborghini Diablo headlights. They are a perfect fit!
    • An update regarding the registration with the DVLA I sent off the paperwork the day after I collected the car from the port, two weeks later it was all returned with a letter explaining they have rejected the application. This was because the cheque was £20 short for the road tax (I used a price list I found online). Nevermind it is what it is, it was sent back to them the following day with a new cheque. Fast forward another 2 weeks or so, I called them for an update to be told it had been rejected. Yesterday (16th September) I received the documents back along with another letter, this time it was because I didn't put an X in one box on the V750 (personalised number plate certificate), which declared that I had the rights to the personalised number plate. Why this wasn't mentioned in the first rejection letter, I don't know, but it could have saved this headache. The documents were sent back today, so fingers crossed third times a charm and it'll FINALLY be registered on the road just in time for the bad weather (woohoo!) To cheer myself up I lowered the front 25mm, was sick of seeing it sit like a monster truck. No idea how much clearance I'll have getting on and off the driveway, I'll worry about that when I can actually drive it
    • You're going to miss not worrying about rust in the strut towers like the Skyline shitboxes out there
    • A few little updates that weren't filmed due to not taking long to do or not interesting enough for their own video. My new K&N Air Filter arrived, I went with an RU-4180 which matched the dimensions of the universal cone filter the car originally had.  The battery had gone flat, while that was charging I tidied up the spaghetti wiring at the bulk head and down the sides of the engine Next job was to swap the stereo The Kenwood harness had the female ISO plugs cut off and the male ISO plugs cut off the adaptor loom and joined with bullet connectors. I ordered in a repair loom through work and re-did it all. New Kenwood unit installed (Android Auto, DAB, Bluetooth, Reverse Camera) The bonnet/hood gas struts have been poor since collecting the car. I couldn't find any suitable replacements locally so took a chance on a pair from AliExpress.  The originals don't use a retaining clip to secure the cup onto the ball fixture, would explain why I struggled for 10-15mins trying to pry off the cups. The ball fixtures unscrew using a 12mm spanner, new ones are the same size. Sadly no photo of them fitted, you're not missing much lol The dished Momo steering wheel got replaced with my Momo Tuner, turns out I ordered counter sunk bolts for the horn trim ring (like they normally are for the steering wheel) instead of allen cap (flat seat)  A terrible photo of a Quaife style gear shift knob I've had stashed in my tool box for many years after purchasing the incorrect thread size (I can see a pattern emerging with ordering incorrect parts...) Also threw in a cup holder and a (empty) Boss Coffee can, because why not  
    • GT-R clearly the better choice! The 300 is certainly not insaly fast but has a decent amount of poke. Does a nice little drift around the corners with a decent amount of throttle. It's VERY predictable in a slide too.  Feels so progressive! People probably presume there's a 25 year old driving it based on my behaviour this week! 🤣
