I don't have any footage of GTR's,but I do have handycam footage of the last two Bathurst 24hr events and some of Lemans 24hr 2004 which I have made into short movies if poeple are interested. Le mans was cool as I evaded security, cut through some paddock's to watch prototypes sceaming past at 340km/h plus.

I have around an 1hr footage and can supply on a disc for $5+postage. I will send out a sample from the dvd via email.If you like it you can buy the full dvd.

If do a search on video.google.com for 'R34' (Some one obviously mis-named it) there is a clip that is 7-8 min or so of a demo race in Japan. Maybe a Nismo festival race?.

The video opens with some normal track shots of the Group A Calsonic R32 GTR in the wet then reels off 5 laps from in car.

love the start, (at about 7min50sec) he just hangs close to the wall, nails it and passes half the field and is left with just 2 GTRs in front, passes one around the outside and turn 1, then up the inside of the next one at turn2/3. seems the bloke in the calsonic car was the only one there to race, the other guys didnt put up much of a fight.

Managed to find a 700mb review of Bathurst 1992 (where the GTR won) as well, so i've got the 91 and 92 editions now.

92 is by far the best (in the rain :))

Still looking for Bathurst 87 though, where apparently the DR30 has lots and lots of sideways action in the rain... :thumbsup:

Any chance of posting this up? or a link to where to get it either of the 91/92 races??

    • Clutch is a spec brand, new clutch system,( PP, flywheel, friction disc, etc. pull type) installed 100 miles ago, with no problems.
    • looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
