Stock rims Terry.

Bob, surely the owner wouldn't be dumb enough to drive a car with plates registered for a Ford, taking into account today's number plate recognition technology police cars are fitted with? Then again I've seen some crazier things.

Hi Marco,

The number plate recognition will only sound alarm bells if a car is unregistered/stolen or anything that relates to that plate.

It doesn't know the car model.

Unless the policeman does an individual check on the car, nothing will happen.

I did a QLD and VIC check of that plate and nothing came up there either.

Presumably the 1959 relates to his birth year and his initials........ Another old fart driving an ADM! :yes::yes::yes::yes:

Bob.

My wife claimed to the see the same car a few weeks ago in chullora but I was sceptical. She heard it run and said it had work done to it...she knows her GTRs as I educated her well.

Aren't I a good man :)

I must that she is a rev head.

About 10yrs ago when I first had my ADM, she raced a yellow ford xygt which was highly modified and absolutely anihiliated it from a set of traffic lights...I was extremely proud :)

She also raced it around Wakefield and I couldn't believe the control she had when it was drifting all 4 wheels in 2nd and 3rd gear...I wasn't a good passenger and I have this on video.

Looks like another ADM has hit the market but unfortunately with next to no info............

Yes, very light on detail!

So, the old girl is back with me, in my garage. its been in storage for about 12 months. Had 2 leaky valves and a flat battery. Drove beautifully, had no problems. That's a pretty good result for a 24yo car that hasn't been out for 12 months.

No airco though, ambient got up to 40.5c, steamy.

Hi Guys,

Just after some advice.

My stepfather owns an Aussie 91 R32 GTR which he unfortuantely due to sickness he can no longer drive. We are looking at selling it as it has just been sitting in the garage for at least the last four years. I am trying to get an idea of it's value and what a good website to sell it would be.

It's red, done 225K's and in good condition with the exception of the engine. I was told the turbo/s failed and have scratched the cylinder bore. Turbo or turbos have been replaced but the head needs some work. it was driven home and parked in the garage and has sat there since.

Just seen a black adm number plates PL 120 on cumberland hwy heading towards greystanes will put up a photo when im home

spotted old mate tonight, on the M4. good to see it out and about :)

BTW Kasey reduce the average sale prices by 10-15k for the blown motor and you'll be about right. Not sure who came to the conclusion that head work is required, it is almost certainly a bottom end rebuild that is required including new bearings and probably boring out the cylinders to remove the scores (which will also require aftermarket oversize pistons). Not a big deal, but not minor either...been there, done that before

Where is the car, I've been keeping an eye out for something that has original bits but needs some work.

Also, this forum is probably the best place to sell it to a genuine buyer that understands why it is worth more than imported GTRs.

Just got the heads up....... This one will be listed tonight!

Wait until you see the price.

Bob.

Took 7 months to sell but it has.

Lovely car!

Bob.

    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

If you would like to attend or bring others along please put your name down and a +1 as numbers will be needed prior! This is NOT a race and we will all be adhering to all road rules. If this is what you want please come to one of our many track days. This is an official SAU:NSW event and will be run under a CAMS permit. One of the things that really sets our club apart is our commitment to being true enthusiasts. When on normal roads we strive to maintain good relations with the authorities as well as the public in general.

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
