#1 Nissan Exa N12 Bathurst History (still site is up)

wonderful history of Croup C days and how Gibson motorsport
went overboard with the exa by using a typo that allowed them
to use a T3 sized turbo when a t25 would have been less of a
headache. Other cars like fwd lower powered suzuki gtis and
later Fiat Abarth turbos in endurance racing proved there are
rewards for well balanced low power fwd machines in racing.
Fred Gibson just took too big of a bite and axes issues forced
the car to retire in the same manner twice.

George Fury on the other hand was a victim to hotter weather
than anticipated for the overboosted Z18et.

Pity this little beast was not RWD or easily convertible to RWD
as theres plenty of room for a north south engine.

Maybe his wife is sixty by now rather than 16 when he met her :)

If I was still in Oz id love to convert one to look like those beast
but rwd and wider rear IRS and front boxy Super Silhouette styled

Just read a article on this little beast. it was only allowed a T3 due to a typo mistake by Cams officials. And in the end his wife raced it , with 350 HP and massive torque steer.
