Watch a bit of the Bathurst 12 hour race, quite a good mix, Evos, STIs, Holdens Mazdas and BMW. Have to say, there are days when Evos really really piss me off because it's so bullshit fast around the corners but it's good to see them owning the holdens and european cars.

Where are all the GTRs????

omg did you see that Mazda MPS.. the blue Thrifty one.. loose it and flip?!?!! I counted 9 times, and the guy was just a bit unsteady on his feet but was fine!

The whole engine fell out! lol

< owch

Saw that the other day on some show. The last lap of his last race and that happened to him!! They said he spent 3 hours totally blind lying in hospital...what a way to end ya career!!!!

GTRs are in front of the evos but not invited because they have to be less than 5 years old :D

here's a pic from oran park last year :)

the thrifty mazda was racing that day too, but he did better than he did at bathurst. ouch.

this was run a few weeks back and they showed the crash on sports tonight that night.

I thought it was funny a Satria GTi did more laps than a GT-P. Cubes aint everything.

you obviously weren't paying attention to the fact that the GT-P spent about an hour in the pits after the front seal on the diff let go and dumped all the oil out.

Just thought it was funny as i work in a dealership with both ford and proton. normally all the ford guys hang shit on the protons all day. Was good to see it the other way round for once. Falcon diffs are crap anyway.

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
