* Great pictures by Stefan Trajkovski

* Great write-up by Blake Jones

* A couple of embellishments - but more sorry that SAU and JLM got lost somewhere

* Many Thanks to JLM for completing a "special order" for this VS2 N1

* Many Thanks go to Skylines Australia; for without this club, I wouldn't have the cars I have now, to play around in.

Have thoroughly enjoyed having the opportunity to see this car at many events and on cruises.

And the owner is not too shabby either ;)

Fantastic car and awesome article!

Just finished reading it. Great article. Its such a beautiful car Terry. I love it.

The shots around Mt Panorama are awesome!

You did the car proud mate. The words and photos did both of you proud.

Thank you fellahs for your appreciation and nice comments.

There's always a 'black sheep' pic that doesn't make it into an article and in this case, it was this one.

I obviously hadn't taken the right line and was approaching the apex late.

It really is a great track and I'd encourage any SAU guys to take a photographer with you when you take your car up for a Bathurst run.

Yes, I took Tash and Matt to spot ahead for me too, for obvious reasons.

Latest News:- SpeedHunters has just announced that this article has in the first 24 hours, been "shared" over 80x, and has had over 2100 "likes" - both records.

That's awesome to know you've broken 2 records! all that e-fame, they should feature your posts in the finding nismo thread, they'd have a heart attack! :rofl2:

I think the R32 is a car that can be appreciated by anyone, their articles about drag racing in the US and bosozoku culture and other niches are fantastic, and are always enjoyable to read.. But a clean and rare edition of an R32 GTR hits home with everyone.

Congratulations again :)

Congrats Terry! So what happened when Speedhunters first rocked up to interview you? Did you tell them they'd never heard of their pokey little motoring blog lol?

Hahaaa I'm so naive that I would believe it if you told me you'd never heard of Bathurst before either.

I personally did an 11th hour search of SpeedHunters before the interview.

Much appreciated you guys.

Just to join some dots, since SpeedHunters is followed devotedly (apparently) by many in the US; because auction prices in Japan have escalated appreciably concerning 1989-90 GTRs; and whilst many good BNR32s have come to Australia, the prospects of BNR32 values appear to remain healthy for well cared for models with service history (preferably from Japan as well as in Oz) intact. My 2c.

It's kinda weird, the moment I saw the lead-in picture on SH the other day my first thought was "I bet it's an SAU member" and my second thought was "I bet it's that Terry bloke", even though I didn't actually know what GTRs you had. Top quality example, well done. :beer:

    • Yes, I know🙄 but the sequential is not in my budget... don't want to reduce power neither, so looks like I'm stuck in the rabbit hole🤣
    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
