91 and 92 white with a bit of black and red
93 yellow and green

Which of the 3 chassis is this? The ad reckons its the '86 car, which was off to shopping centre duty for '87 but was revived for Bowie and Terry Shiel to run at Calder.

I think you may be right - Definitely a pre 86 Bathurst car, Fury debuted a new car at Bathurst that was considered 'far too stiff' in the chassis - how far chassis, suspension & tyre technology has come in the last 20 years...

And the ad makes no mention of Gary Scott's pole position in the older car, so it makes sense...

Here's an interesting video... shows the Wellington UnZud Longhurst crash... but also the John Sax Group 'N' M3 as well...

That brings back good memories. The kid could drive then, the old fella can drive now. Bring back Glen I say.

But the GTR is gone.

Chatters · 13 Oct 2007, 10:39 (Ref:2039128)

I'm wondering if anyone can fill me in here... Out towards Leppington in NSW I saw a Nissan Skyline in 1991 Gibson colours. It looked genuine but had #6 on it? Did such a car exist or is it a fake?

mtpanorama · 13 Oct 2007, 12:19 (Ref:2039176)

I saw the same GTR the other week and was going to take a pic of it this week but it wasn't there. It is at the Shell( or is it caltex) servo on the camden road

jc1965 · 14 Oct 2007, 07:33 (Ref:2039646)

I would guess that it is the same one that you can see running around at wakefield park on you-tube, in 91 works colours.
It was back mid-way through this thread or another similar thread where the history of all GMS GTR-R's was discussed. (i thought they were all accounted for).

**GTRMagic** · 14 Oct 2007, 08:19 (Ref:2039658)

It is likely the ex-Beaurepaires car... repainted in GMS/Nismo livery...

It is a GTR , not the hr32. I am back down there next week. I will try and stop and ahve a look. It does have tooheys 1000 stickers on it as well.

Sultan · 14 Oct 2007, 09:21 (Ref:2039687)

They did have a promo/display car for a while, it was actually for sale a few months ago, it may have been in Unique Cars...

None of the GT-R's here ran as car #6... unless the car you mention is the one earlier in this thread that is ex-Winfield, and has come back from Asia...

Yeh, the number 6 had me a bit lost as well. But the 1000 stickers on it make it interesting.

**GTRMagic** · 14 Oct 2007, 09:59 (Ref:2039715)

You can buy the Tooheys 1000 stickers from the Museum can't you?

Lindsay Fox has one, said to be the 91 Bathurst winner
GMS built one for Bob Forbes - the GIO car (now sold)
and Terry Ashwood has one, the 92 Bathurst winner

I would say from this list it is the "Asian" one...

mtpanorama · 14 Oct 2007, 10:37 (Ref:2039743)

I know who has the "asian" one, and it is still in Winfield colours

**GTRMagic** · 14 Oct 2007, 11:31 (Ref:2039780)

Unless one of the IPRA mafia has done up an R32 GT-R in "factory" colours,..

CooperS79 · 14 Oct 2007, 11:49 (Ref:2039795)

Could it be this car, it appears to have a number 6 on the door.

Chatters · 14 Oct 2007, 11:53 (Ref:2039800)

That is probably the car... However who it belongs to and what car it was is what we are trying to solve.

The thing I found interesting was the number on it... If they wanted it to be a replica of the GMS/ATCC GT-Rs, it would be #1 or #2... But #6...?

**GTRMagic** · 14 Oct 2007, 11:56 (Ref:2039803)

Sure looks like it

mtpanorama · 14 Oct 2007, 12:52 (Ref:2039842)

That is the car that is at leppington
