I think the wild looking R32 is 1994 or 1995 JGTC race car - ie what came after Group A ended.

They only made one R33 GT-R LM Roadgoing, and that is it!

Rom, thanks for posting this up. I remember a couple years ago finding a collection of photos from the garage and saving every single one of them.

Does anyone know if there is actually a way to go visit nowadays? From what I remember it was closed off to the public after an incident with some parts going missing a couple years back.

Terje.

these pictures remind me of the childhood dream beeing alone overnight in a toy-shop

Stunning pictures - thanks for sharing! This is my idea of history.
If they'd taught this at school, I'd have paid much more attention on Wednesday afternoons

It's the Nissan storage facility at Zama.
With the GTROC's contacts a visit would be on the cards for the next trip

That's amazing such a variety of models, have been kept exactly as they were, such foresight by whoever made the decision to keep them, obviously not an accountant!
