Look how god damn good that GTR looks... even 26 years later

*In Jeremy Clarkson's voice * "That Skyline.......just f**ks off."

That in-car starting 3:26 was just glorious. Seeing the GTR catchup and then rip through the gears to pass with that RB26 screaming!

I hated this car for winning and beating Ford , i have owned 3 GTRs since ............

This race is what switched me from ford V8's to Skylines

watching the R32 GTRs dominate Mt. Panorama as a kid - unforgettable!

The boss of nismo at the time came from Japan to see the GTRs race, thats pretty cool. 3:05

I wish I could’ve lived through this era of racing. When they were actually shifting, using some of the most iconic cars to date, and had badass liveries

im proud to be owning a R32 gtr. A piece of history.

This is the beginning of the legendary R32 "Godzilla" GT-R.

Watching the gtr's at bathurst as a kids I fell in love with the 32. I have 3 kids of my own and have owned 3 gtr's I'm still in love lol

Despite being a lover of the Sierras, what a beast of a car!!! The Godzilla tag is well deserved.

Cams theory was to put a lot of weight on on the GTR - when really all the had to do was make it rear wheel drive. The Sierras were crippled by an extra 80 kg & the Holdens were gifted some engine upgrades and lost 75 kg .

I made that 7 overtakes on the first lap from that GTR.... WOW

3:44 best moment of my entire life, this gear banging is georgious ! This dude drive like there is no tomorrow, I love it !

R32 GTR and RS500 Cosworth, two of my dream cars in battle!

How good was it to watch actual cars you could buy so to speak rather than a controlled cage with panels fixed to it? Motorsport was at its peak back then, been downhill eversince

Back on the rocks back on the rocks, BABY! You gotta go and live forever!

The Virgin RS500 and The CHAD GT-R

Those were the days, great variety of cars, each with their unique characteristics, these were great fun races to watch!

MAN!! I could of swore that in car cam was 1080P!!! hahaah it's so clear!!!

3:31 - 3:53 = Golden!

I love the turbo tweeting you hear every now and then

Racing today just is not the same.

That car was awesome... as well as the Driver behind the wheel....

These were the glory days of Aussie Touring car racing.

wait you could talk to thedrivers while racing back then?

The way how Dick Johnson raise his hand when Jim Richards fly pass...

Legendary car on a legendary track

Fun fact, the GTR got the nickname Godzilla in Australia.

jim richards! kiwi legend!

Brock the mountain master RIP ! Thanks for the memories fighting these awesome GTRs 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🙏🏻👍🏻👏👏👏👏👏

Is that Bruce McAvaney and James Hunt in the commentary box?! Amazing

listening to that r32 roar at 3:34 gives me goosebumps

The R in GT - R stands for *INVINCIBLE*

I loved the Nissan GTR's and the Ford Sierra, the squirrel sound of the Ford's was nice.

Great racing back then. An interesting variety of cars involved.

Well earned 18th place - Well done GTR

I wish we had more cars like this again.

Lolol looks so much more entertaining compared to now lol

Great Fountain of knowledge

That's a great video.

3:45 How violent are these two upshifts? Damn

What a time to be alive 🤌

If this video hit the algorithm in the right spot it would blow up

My favourite Tintop race car at my favourite circuit. Heavenly 🙏

Now this was the days of proper racing

I remember watching this as a kid and now I own a r32gtr

At least I’ve seen a few GTRs getting around, stuffed if I can think of a Sierra punting around town.

The inboard cameras at that time are quite nice

That's beautiful.

And then the rule makers got salty and slugged the GT-R's with stacks of weight. By this time though, Group A was on its way out due to escalating costs and lack of manufacturer involvement; bogans were crying, upset that a 6 cylinder turbocharged Japanese rocket was beating their heroes (never mind that the Gibson GT-R's were developed to an inch of their lives and were the fastest of their kind on the planet), the Brits were moving to the Super Touring era and touring car racing was going into somewhat of a dark age. I was a diehard Holden fan but I was always partial to the GT-R. It led me to the Japanese JGTC series which became Super GT. The racing there is awesome.

Bring back Nissan R35 too RACE 2024 PLEASE

Even utter dominance was great to see in those times

GTR has some body differences. Wider guards for wider wheels, obviously different wings and bodykits, also has an aluminium bonnet and vent slots at the front.

i remember well the sierra boys worried by the obvious advantage the gtr had - and the handicaped it hard - but it still won alot of races

i think we may be returning very slowly back to the golden era of supercar racing in aus with the introduction of Mercedes-Benz - AMG and Nissan back into the series. But to do it properly i think they need to return to using different engine configurations like turbo 6's and 4's

Holy...32 second lead? Are the Sierra Cosworth even in the same category?

All praise 2 the great one mr hioki

Good ol' days. So awesome. xD

does anyone know how they did this moving camera effect?

👍Great post

They used to do that all time, especially during the races lol

I owned a VL commodore gts once, had a nice straight 6 nissan engine

Hiya dose any one know if the gtr is still useing hicas or did they disable it ?

Yes true. Do you know if they had identical chassis or if the GTR had extra bracing or structural members? i cant think of any except for maybe a strut tower brace at the front.

Where can i watch the full race?

Cosine heaven, and I don’t think this track gets the recognition it should.

I think from my memory I saw a black Sierra with mag wheels at Bathurst once but oh so long ago. The 90s it must have been. Up until now. The only Ford Sierra I have actually seen with my own eyes. Apart obviously from the ones racing out here back in the day. Popular in England and Europe. Fast. So they thought why not race them here too ?

It was actually the Alan Grice/Win Percy Commodore that won, Larry came 3rd.

The cosworth tho 🤤

I saw that exact skyline in a hanger at Essendon airport owned by Lindsay fox

hate you so much GTR..............BUT YOU ARE A POWERHOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! holden man here but DAM respect

In the end I think it was a 110kg weight penalty 18psi Max hobbled it and it still won

I miss these days

Bit of nostalgia

Nissan Skyline GTR32 aka Godzilla was still biting up to these days

4s, 6s, 8s and trubos if only it was still this good....

Theat GTR was a rocket. No wonder it got hobbled after the 1990 season

Whats this type of race called?

haha Brocky in a FORD... HRT lovers are tasting bile.. :)

2021 and im still guttered that cossies and Gtr's don't participate in these races

Dialing through to the driver is character modern races cannot get back.

This was the passing of the crown, from the sierras to the skylines.

bruce mcavaney has commentated EVERYTHING even the birth of GOZIRA

Bathurst should return to a production car race to give it back some spark.

No Izep, the GTR was designed and built to compete in Group A,the sedan and coupe variants came after.

Other cars:,bzzzz eeeeeeoooowwwww weiuuow Gtr: ROARRRRRRR!!!!!!!

Just wondering but has a Falcon or Commodore even stepped foot on the Nurburgring?

As much as i love the GTR on Skyline series(R32,33,34),i find it bullshit that BMW M3 GTR got disbanded because it was too OP,i wish those 2 GTR from different manufacturers may a comeback

Don't know, I will look into that :)

How high? Skyline

People calling the r34 Godzilla when in reality it’s the r32.

where the V8 were at the end of their use, in 1983 i had a debate that V8 days at racing were numbered and coming to an end,

Dammit, I never got to see these cars in action...

I didn’t know go pro was back in the 90s

Easy to see why it was eventually banned from racing events. The R32 GTR was fucking unbeatable

is that Brock in a sierra?

Did you see the guy put his hands up when the Nissan pulled him on the straights?

Commentator: "I do believe the Commodores will come good near the end of the race." Nissan GTR: "LMAO.... hold my beer...."
