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... :)

hahah it's pretty interesting how badly the turbos dished it out in the touring car chamionships back before a V8 was considered a 'supercar' :down:

theres a good clip getting around about the R32 bastard car winning bathurst too.

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

I have them on my pc :happy:

There were links to download them on this forum a while ago..

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

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
