Thats awesome!!

Is there a unique story about the car? How the owner acquired it ect?

Good question Dimi.
I asked the same ;)
We think alike.

Where the car was stored for 5 yrs until 2010 is not certain.

Bobby was given a heads up about 4+ Z-Tune cars being available up until 2009.
He was told of this "special" Z-Tune being part of the Nismo directorship that was emerging for sale; but sight unseen and with the sequence number still unknown, he had to slap a $10,000AUD deposit on it to be locked in.
Only after the deposit was paid, was he told that it was indeed #1 of 19 (the last 5 of which were conversion to Z-Tune requests).

Bobby only had the car for 3 weeks before deciding to attend the SAU.NSW R32 GT-R 21st Anniversary From Tench Pk Penrith to Katoomba.
A brilliant iconic photograph of the car was taken by Kory Leung whilst travelling up Bells Line Of Road in the mist.
It hasn't travelled any long distances since then.

So is 019 the last Z-Tune, or 018 (plus prototype BNR34-P001)? Everywhere has 2 prototypes and yet after looking at hundreds of photos and spending at least a few hours researching I haven't seen a second prototype car. Any input?

Bobby is crazy. Not only does he have a Z tune. he has a ztune replica with almost twice the power. yet looks identical to the real Ztune. Crazy i tell ya crazy!!

So........the million dollar question.....

 

Will you register it and use it?

Garage and do some heavy petting?

Wait for the years to roll by and then sell for the millions it will appreciate to?

tear it apart and sell it off for spare parts? <<< yeah that one is a joke.

In other words whats the plans, do you have any?

    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, much easier to work with it now it's free!  
    • I _think_ that one has a christmas tree or some other retainer spike into a hole in that panel under it. Come in under it with thin scredrivers and just pry it gently up. If you rip the ears off the retainer pin....so what? Just stick it back down after with a bit of race tape and carry on with life.
