just watched the last bathurst worth watching... 1992.... we all know it. the thing ive always wanted to see is how Jim Richards bent the LHF corner of the GTR in the first place. Was there any amateur footage taken?

And was that shell ever repaired or did it get scrapped?

im sure it'll be on SAU or google somewhere but ive been searching for an hour and cant find it....

I assume you mean brake pads Jenna?

Go QFM HPX or A1RM pads - I have run them on my R34 and V35 and love them for street use.

Nope, handbrake shoes - as I said. Pads are great, already have QFM pads on there for a few years now - I love 'em :)

Gonna give JIS a call now - thanks for the tip there Pete.

I've found some places online in the UK selling drift ones, but I'd prefer to not wait that long (and I don't need anything special). Judging by how worn they are, I'm guessing they're still the original handbrake shoes that came with the car.

Edit:

Just tried JIS - no luck. Apparently they usually stock Project Mu, but none available at the moment :(

Who'da thought handbrake shoes would be such a pain?

Have you tried GSL Rallysport at all?

I'm pretty sure they deal with project mu so you might be able to get brake shoes through them.

They have always been really helpful whenever i have needed anything, and there customer service is great.

I'll give GSL Rallysport a shot. I cant remember if they're the mob I got my QFMs through or my RDAs - but I've definitely bought stuff from them before.

I did find these ones on eBay - http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/150477253998 (they also do a fitting kit http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/130521829126) - so that's my last option if I can't find anyone who's reasonably priced locally.

Thanks guys - you all rock :D

not 100% sure if these are helpful cause im at work and cant watch them...

theyre both from the tv coverage of the final big pile-up..

i want to find footage of the accident that happened a minute before that, where the front wheel was disabled

before i choose who to back, is there any word on what the merc will look like, or if they will even be entering? ive heard that there will be no corporate backing and people want out....

Shame cause I daresay Mercs will cream the local lads and probably give Nissan a genuine run for their money. If they dont enter, (and Im biased here) I'd consider Nissan in a prime position to win every race >:D

-D

of course Nissan will win... even if a race is red flagged early.... (just getting the joke in before any ford lovers do)

it would be fitting if the fords and holdens all had red and blue lights on the roof to mimic reality.... cops chasing nissans

Was funny, i heard today "...with the return of nissan, the "bad boys" of v8 supercars...."

you almost get the feeling that mercedes doesnt belong there....

    • Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.
    • List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter? 
    • @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...
