Anybody want to discuss the article itself?

I don't know why they used a cheap fibreglass N1 bumper copy on the Aussie Group A GT-R... also those mirrors look like they belong to a Caterham Super 7. It's interesting to note the smug content Gibson Motorsport had with the Group A GT-R, they *knew* they were going to win even in pre-season (well I suppose blowing away the Sierra Cosworth times would do that), it was just a matter of warding off DNF's/reliability issues.

I'd love to know more about what's what in the engine bay. I've rarely seen a race engine - what's the aluminium box in the top right of the pic?

And is the strut brace setup better than a bar or just different?

Rezz: I'm assuming that you spotted the bumper as a copy as it's a one-piece?? and thanks for the hosting

edit: found another mention for the Aust GT-R. Not terribly informative, but the 1990 price tag is interesting.

I was at the Clipsal 500, and they had the Winfield GTR there, good thing was the 90% of the people were one eye V8 bogans, so i got a good look at it.

could i have the PDF to [email protected] please?

      Steps to DIY sanding car back ready for respray....

      By silviaz · Posted

      Yeah been doing it in an x shape. Do you reckon it's worth putting guide coat early where the filler isn't sanded down completely smooth? Reason I ask is because as I'm sanding it one part might be level which I don't need to sand anymore but the other part might be high so I can just focus on that instead of sanding across the whole repair area. I wonder if the putty is too thin, though the area is almost completely smooth before I do it as I've already put filler prior.

      Complex conex, sand in X shape. And don't go hardcore. I find putting on filler to be the art here to help.

      R32 GTR Limp Mode?

      By Nydt · Posted

      Hey y'all, I have a completely stock 1991 R32 GTR, yesterday I took my car out and went for about a thirty minute drive. It was fine on the way there but when returning home I think the car might have gone into a limp mode. I was cruising in 5th gear around 130km/h, the hicas light came on and there was a significant loss of power. About a minute later I hear a thump, the car starts driving normal again and is fine the rest of the drive back. This is the second time its happened, same as now it was fine on the trip there. On the way back it had the hicas light on but that time I would feel the power going in and out before hearing the same thump and it being fine.  I have no idea idea what causing this, but if anyone has any ideas it would be great as a start chasing the cause of this. Also I can provide more details if needed. Thank you

      When sanding across a convex panel, you need to sand, as much as possible, at right angles to the curve. If the panel is compound convex curved (ie curved in both directions) then you are SOL and have to use "craftsmanship" to get it right.
