Wow...the Bathust Godzilla


Recommended Posts

Well...what do you expect?...It was built in 1992. But afterall, red does make it go faster :D

True... but then again, there are heaps of people on here who think the R32 looks tough and all that... I'll have to differ but respect their views... each to his own... and yeah, the red always been it goes faster... :)

Oh that's cheap as! Might head out after exams finish actually.

Keep in mind that they only open on certain days or day. I think it was Tuesdays.

But check their website anyway.

Anyone know where you can buy the complete Bathurst races that the GTR's were in? I'd love to own them :blink:

Hi!

From JB Hi Fi, you can buy the 2006 Chevron Production of the 1991 & 1992 Bathurst 1000 races on dvd. It devotes 2 Hrs on each race = 4Hrs worth.

Highly recommended. The 1992 speech by Jim Richards is there too, calling the the Ford/Holden Rednecks a bunch of A********. Much publicity was made of the 100Kg penalty dished out to the GTRs and there's even plenty of footage of Oloffsen and Crompton who came 3rd in that race.

From JB Hi Fi or Ezydvd, you can also buy the 2003 Production of Nissan Skyline GT-R

Highly Recommended. Includes Dirk Shoisman's Fang around Nurburgring in the R34 as well the technical stuff by Andy Middlehurst in England

Lastly and still much better than all the HPI or Best Motoring dvds is the footage of Kurosawa's Fang around Nurburgring in the R33.

Very impressive dvd even though it's in Japanese. It shows the slight difference in characteristics between V-Spec and Non-V-Spec as well as performance figures of the R33. I don't know where you can get this one, because someone gave it to me; and I forget who it was.

All I can say is that whilst each dvd is dedicated to the R32, R33 or R34, you can't help but agree that each model is totally deserving of the title supercar.

PM me if you have any troubles.

Regards,

Terry

    • Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.
    • That's some good input mate. Nice.
    • So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.
    • Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on
    • Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
