a few years back, Zoom did articles on the freg gibson motorsport race cars



issue 53 had he DR30

had a 640x320x85 FMIC, stock was smaller than a stcok silvia, how'd that get homologated??

a spare line coming off the wastegate diaphragm, went thru the firewall, to a hidden boost controller

2 headlight switches, the 2nd was a brake balancer





issue 55 has the bluebird

they had no intercooler from factory, but the race car had one

they had a fully fabricated IRS setup, which was modelled on the euro spec bluebird, which apparently had IRS, and
Quote:


the rules were very unclear in this area, and it helped that the homologation papares were in japanese.
there is a quote that sums it up after the record breaking lap at Bathurst in 1984 from a journo called Graham Howard, talking to Nissan Motorsport boss Howard Marsden.

Howard to Marsden: "not bad for a semi trailing arm set-up"
Marsden: "well, its not exactly semi trailing arm"
Howard: "can i have a look"
Marsden: "no"



if u pulled the headlight switch, it turned the headlights on, but if u turn in, it adjusted the brake bias


unfortunately i cant fond the GTR issue


i'm sure someone will have a copy and post the findings
