Unique Cars #372 currently has an ADM f/s from WA. Page 207. Reg No GTR091. Is this one on your list?

Yes Terry,

That's been for sale for a long time sadly.

They were black cars..........BUT..........

They were not part of the 100 special build.

They were part of the 4-6 evaluation cars that Nissan brought in for testing and compliance testing.

I can't confirm whether there were 4 or 6 of these cars I'm getting both numbers quoted from various sources.

As you can see with my attached pics, the VIN is well before the first batch of 50 cars.

The Japanese ID tag doesn't have the 40Z prefix either that were assigned to the ADM's.

Cheers,

Bob.

Hi Bob - and everyone else, long time reader first time contributor!

Bob, have you had any luck identifying the original 'prototypes' brought in separately to the 100 ADM's?

I understand there is a blue one in Melbourne - just hearsay though.

Hi mate and welcome..........

I know of 3 prototypes....... The interesting thing about them is the VIN's.

They are numbers ending with 11260, 11266 and 11268. So...... were there 9 in total if you fill in the blanks?

I was contacted privately by the gentlemen who owns the blue one in Melbourne (TH1 paintcode). It's not hearsay, it's fact.

Another one, (Gun Metal Grey) is currently for sale on Carsales and the 3rd was the Falken Bathurst 12hr car.

If anyone else knows the whereabouts of any of the others that would be great.

Cheers,

Bob.

Very funny. :D:D:D:D:D

It was actually the wheels that got me thinking it was you........

Let's face it, silver ADM with those wheels. Not many of them around!

Only 24 ever made and I know of at least 1 that has gone to god!

Hi guys,

A good friend of mine bought the green car off Bob Roman in the early noughties. It had the original interior back in it and the only mods were the gear knob, ARC intake air filter box, wheels (not the ones in the AR&T article) and aftermarket suspension. It changed a bit in the years that he had it.

It saw a fair few track days around Sydney and at one stage it was being prepared for Targa Tasmania (but never made it). I remember it kissed the wall at Oran Park and needed to have the whole side resprayed. When we pulled the trim apart we found that it was actually a metallic red car, not black. I'm sure from memory that it had a dark engine bay though. I remember there was something odd about the colour code on the build plate too.

The last time I saw it, it had gold painted R33 GTR wheels on it and his then girlfriend was driving it around.

He eventually sold it about 8-9 years ago to a guy in QLD. I'd love to know where it is now.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
