Love it !!! :(

So did Terry actually get some good starts or do the bog-down & catch-up thing again ?

Poor Brocky, he must really be getting tired of seeing those Skyline tail lights after all these years :P

BTW, Top pic of Rod's car !!!

And one of the GTRs . this is for cars up and including 92 or before 92? And when were the 32s out 92 wasnt it.

32 GTRs were racing (and winning) in the ATCC in 1991.

32's were winning in late 1990!

Hooks

I thought in the first few races that the R32 and the R31 were in together on australian soil (the changeover period), the R32 got beat by the 31's?

Yeh Jim Richards actually win the 1990 SATCC in the R31 GTSR. Mid season Skaife started running the GTR at rounds getting it ready for Bathurst and the 91 season. I think the GTRs first round was Winton in 1990, adn the GTS-Rs last rounbd was Oran Park with Jim behind the wheel wrapping up the championship..

Can anyone remember what the R31 GTSR came at Bathurst in 1990? Or did Gibson just run the single GTR? I seem to recall in 89 the R31s came 2nd and 3rd at Bathurst behind the Shell Sierra.

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
