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????

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

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.

      Spotted on the street....

      By Rezz · Posted

      Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.

      No. Only for a standard ECU with/without Nistune. Standalone has no need for it. That's like the 3rd time I've said so.   And as to that sensor linked - yes, it does look like it would be the right one. I've never bothered to see how available they were - just assumed that they'd be hard to find. I think I'd be planning to go Link ECU rather than buy sensors I don't actually want to make Nistune work, if I did not already have Nistune. As you do not already have Nistune, you should realy consider your options.
