Guys do you know nothing of the all mighty at the famous mountain.

The fans were booing because the race was rained out and many cars crashed at the top of the mountain leading onto conrod straight, the gtr being one, so the officials went the the last lap before it was flash flooding being 2 laps prior when the (Gentleman Jim Richards and Mark Skaife) GTR was in the lead so they handed the honour to them. So the moron Holden wankers booed, and Jim wasnt impressed with the quote "Pack of arsholes".

By the way I didnt downlaod the link. Just assuming the race you guys are talking about.

The GTR was and still is the king of the mountain, The lap record still being in the possesion of Mark Skaife in the r32gtr.

I just wish I was old enough when the GTR's were racing. I was 8-9... :P

hmmm...when I must have been 6 or maybe a bit older.. maybe younger.. I remember for christmas I got the bathurst slot car set. Only when I started getting into skylines (about 15 years old ) did it dawn on me that I had those little beasts all along haha.. It came with the r32 brock GTR and another GTR no idea who drives it though.. In my stupidity I coloured in the brock one black.. :thumbsup: Might have to wip out the metho sometime soon hehe.. It's good fun though setting up the old slot car track and hittin the mountain with the GTR's all the power in my hand haha

You assumed wrong. This is the 91 Bathurst where the GTR was the first car to cross the line no ifs no buts in a record time of 6hrs 19 min. The crowd was booing because they are ghey and did not like the fact that the GTR won. The pack of assholes was 92....the GTR also ran at the mountain in 1990 but broke down when in the lead :O

And it is the race record not the lap record that is held by the GTR

The 91 GTR ran a 2m 12s lap to get pole

Lowndes ran a 2m 8.59 lap for pole last year

The 91 GTR would not have been in the top 10 shoot out last year. The main reason it holds the race record is that the rules regarding yellow flags have changed and the safety car has been introduced since that time...all of wich means the GTR will probably hold the race record for a long time to come

So there you have it kids, it appears that the oracle of all things on "the all mighty at the famous mountain" could stand to learn a little :D

Try downloading the whole Divx play bundle here. http://www.divx.com/divx/play/download/?hp3playdl It worked for me!

Thanks Bunta, was looking good until it told me that it won't support Me or Win98. I'm soooo close...will se if I can get it on the laptop which has Win2000.

Must be worth it... :ermm:

i am no authority on aus racing GTRs but i'm pretty sure brock never raced in one. I think you may have yourself a brock commodore... now painted black.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing! He did drive a seirra in 1990 though after the fallout with HDT over the infamous brock polariser!!! So maybe that is what was part of the set?? I could look kind of like a GTR....maybe :

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
