Interesting Video

It's on Bittorrent (I think it's the same one)

Ah, excellent. Cheers!

Look again - there's a cable holding it inplace.

R32s look a lot smaller than they are. The R33s look a lot bigger than what they are. Over here the standard large car is a Commodore or Falcon which is about the same size as your average house. So I wouldn't call either a really big car.

PS the Falcons small motor is a 4.0 litre. The fast one is turboed with

LOL

Is that a bucket of shit with HSV handling pack, or just the base model family bucket of shit?

sounds cool! where can i get a commodore or falcon? hehe any pics of what they look like! my uncle used to have a big as monaro (no not the new one) when he lived in Oz, sadly he past away and i don't have any pics of the V8 beast :)

You can see the Falcon's racing in the Aussie touring cars on Sky. Seeing them hussle round Bathhurst is just awesome :D

Winners fxp!

Heh, makes me remember the old 340 and not being able to get up a tiny incline and having to reverse for about a mile in the snow last year!

Pretty impressive though. But 4x4s tend to do that. I've driven a landy off road up silly inclines in the mud. My housemate's impreza is nutty going up inclines when you stick in low range too.

Director: "Cut!"

Director: "Ooops..."

Go to autotrader.com.au and knock yourself out. The prices on some of the cars will scare you. Particularly anything German.

Except the touring car ones aren't even close to the ones on the road. Similar shape and name is about it.

Fraser

Neither. Falcons are made by Ford and Commodores are made by Holden(Vauxhall/GM). HSV is Holden Special Vehicles kinda like the Nismo version of Nissan. Most of the people I know say it stands for Heap of Shit Vehicles. Think drunken Australian on a Friday afternoon build quality.

Fraser

An Impreza with a low range gearbox. WTF?

Fraser

hehehee!

Yep its true. The turbos didnt, but his is a weezy 1.8 :)

So? No production based car competing at that level of motorsport is even close to its road going equivalent :) (Think 206 WRC....). He only wanted to know what they looked like, and they look better in race spec, and for knowing they have 500bhp.

lol ok i will later :)
