The golden era of motorsport as some people call it.

I have a mk2 gti , I'm still having fun :D. No electronics, control assistants, only hardcore. Hi from RUS.

Exactly. E30 everyday

This is on point.

@@Joshua_N-A i would say legendary

E36 ?

@@dofrondemeraude5607 pretty sure e30 318

@@lukekolodziej9631 why not 318is e30?

@@TopiAS06 that’s what I meant, oops

It's easier shifting (gross movement) with the left while steering with the right (fine movement), given most people in the world are right handed.

@@viduranisal yet majority of traffic in the world drives on the right meaning steering wheel is on the left side.

@@Joshua_N-A Yes but his point stands. It doesnt take long to relearnnshiting side either way imo. I shift lefty irl but righty in sims and its never caused me issues.

@@viduranisal I’m left handed and drive a RHD car and even if I don’t need to change gear I still only drive with my right hand

It's the sort of racing we live for!

Set up right, which clearly this is, the solid axle is less a problem than you might think... (I raced a AE86 for more than 20 years). Was a great little car.

@@noaht2005 no it’s not

@@msengineeringdavid3148 that’s just what I heard. I’ll. retract my comment

@@noaht2005 on a track with stiff suspension it isn't a huge problem. on a street it does show it's oversteering tendency more then on a track

solid axle is more predictable than trailing arms, easier to drift as the tyres stay parallel to the road in vaying conditions. Trailing arms and wishbones can change camber suddenly if unloaded in a bend and unexpectedly reduce grip, resulting in uncatchable oversteer. Cornering hard on the street and touching a patch of leaves will cause a crash. I know people who have changed to a solid axle from wishbone for that reason, as predictability gives confidence which allows you to push harder. Having said all that, independant suspension well set up, will ultimately give greater traction on track.

My first car was one :( Never should have sold it. Got it for $500 in 2001

@@AJS86 sucks doesn't it? If I still had it, it'd have an f22 with ITB's and be a sweet 2000 lb track car

@@dickfitzwelliner2807 I'd keep it pretty much stock. If I did want it on track I'd have a 4A-GZE supercharged maybe

I had an ae85/6 with 20v BT swap and now have an E36. I don’t miss the ae85 ever, they’re overrated imo.

I 'll quite gladly take your e30.

If nothing else, at least you have the memories! :)

Yes Jordan Cox IIRC

They were both developed by the same group of ppl

Nah mate I think we all want the E30 to win ahahahah 😝

@@mpower320i Not me, Hachiroku FTW!!! Tho the E30 is a decent car.

@@mpower320i yeah no lol

Heretic! There can be only the holy BMW.

And still sucks if other sportcar will be tuned too

@@Lancia_Delta_Integrale same as other cars it just matters the tune and the driver thats it

It's a car that only exists because on an anime

Dude people in Japan literally learned to drift with this car and that's why they are so good, anime is a cool bonus

@@user-kr1or1hm4v No

Lool fuck cali

Come race Lemons or Lucky Dog or Champcar with us, it's similar with all different kinds of cars.

The e30 has v8 m60-62o or even maybe s62 the sound is quite clear, so i suppose at least 300hp on e30.

@@user-qn2dw7mn3l are you sure you’re not hearing the V8 car in front of it? Unless the M60 revs really high then this doesn’t sound like a V8 to me.

@@clumsygarage1578 every time e30 is coming close yo the camera i can hear v8 and not a regular one but an m60/62, search on youtube sound of m60/62 and every inline 6 from m20 to n54 and you wont hear anything from this video, i drive bmws and I love inline 6, so I surely know the sound.

They both have 4 cylinders 🤦🏻‍♂️ the e30 never came with a 3.0 i6, only 2.5 but even then, the M3 came with the 4 and this car has 4 too. Y’all deaf lmao

@@user-qn2dw7mn3l how could u not hear that m4x? Jfc dude

That's awesome! Thanks for joining us!

They're both Improved Production cars. Both are heavily modified within the rules, e30 has a wild 6cly engine, not sure exactly but i think S50 engine. AE86 has late model turbo engine but has a 36mm intake restrictor. Both must retain original headlights in working order

@@BarnettMotorsport is the ae86 track wider? I can imagine they both walk the line for rules placed.

@@chrisvei6293 Hi Chris. Rules vary a little between Pre 1986 (Early Model) and post 1986 (Late Model) I think the AE68 is Early Model and the E30 Late Model. Early Model have more restrictions with aero and smaller rim/tyre size. But can run flares and have no weight limits even with an engine change to a different engine, but engine must be from the same manufacturer and same cylinders/configuration, turbo with 36mm intake restrictor can be added. Late Model have more aero and larger rims, but cant have flares. Late Model also are usually heavier as the new cars are generally heavier. You can change the engine to a different type so long as its the same manufacturer and configuration, turbo can not be added if it wasn't factory fitted in the car. If you change the engine you have a minimum weight to adhere to. All Improved Production cars must run factory suspension arms with rubber/nolothane bushes (No heim joints). Must have factory panels, doors and so on. Must have glass (No lexan) and all windows must go up and down as per factory. The dash and plastic surrounds must be in place. Gearbox is free so long as its no more than 6 speed and H pattern, dog box are allowed. The rules allow for close racing with cars that have strengths and weaknesses in different areas.

Couldn't agree more!

Awesome! We love it when the brilliant racing in Grass Roots Australia is seen!

Doubt either are stock under the hood

Yea bro that e30 is far from stock lol...doesn't sound stock and doesn't body roll like stock haha both are highly modified

There are a lot of positives that the E30 brings to the table as a drivers car!

The AE is still competing in the South Australian IPRA Championship and we believe will most likely to compete in the next IPRA Nationals scheduled for QLD in 2022.

Something is up? Was thinking the same thing. No synchros dog box

Sounds like Tai Lung lol

Maybe at the next IPRA Nationals it can be arranged. 😉 The Zook is one crazy piece of equipment!

Oh yeah, that noiissseee!

Yeh, 3sgte under the hood If I remember correctly

A lad named Jordan Cox drive that Civic, said to have a B20 under the bonnet, I think.

Maybe its supercharged to compensate for displacement?

supra mk4

Idk much about 86s but maybe this one has different suspension since it looked pretty heavily modified. Otherwise it’s probably just lightness and bravery letting it keep up with the E30.

I think I saw this 86 somewhere before..it has the Toyota calica engine 190hp.

Think it was a boosted beams 3sge engine
