  1. I think slide performance need a public relations officer. For $170 they have now had hundreds of people read this post and the one of ns.com. I would have paid the $150 no questions asked. I also own my own company and bad press like this is much worse than paying out $1000 let alone 50% of $341. Just from this post I would not deal with them....why risk the chance of going through the stress.
  2. getting a rex to 200awkw requires a lot more work than it does for a GTR. It makes for a very fast rex. With a 7000rpm launch and good traction it will do it no problem.
  3. I was alo surprised the 6.2L LS3 didnt make it either. There must be a place for american dinasuar technology
  4. both, a 6MT and steptronic ? (the auto has been praised as the best on the market) some tests have had a stock 135i do 4.7s 0-100 and 13.2 1/4mile.
  5. bmw's 3l turbo is where it is at. cant wait to get a 135i
  6. geez, I wonder what the cordia trbo does it in

  8. doen't J Edgar write for and own autospeed ? hardly surprising then autospeed recommends it.
  9. the times of the G6E turbo are also better than the new M3.
  10. the lf-a sounds very F1 from the video link above
  11. I'll wait for the VSpec II Nur Edition bored out to 4.0L
  12. the car will sell itself. The dealer could have no knowledge and look like a complete tool and they will still sell it. And yes they will be arrogant.
  13. i was thinking the same thing from that shot. The R33s are looking dated now (but in this shot it looks better than the R34), but a modified R34 still look fine.
  14. I hope its still there, only down the road from envy
  15. a lot of people don't care what their pets or children do. If I caught anyone putting a scratch on my car i would treat it like an insurance case. I wouldn't show the emotion of rage. Take his details etc and then hand it over to the insurance company. Get him to admit his dog did jump all over the car. He can pay to have the sratches professionally fixed.
  16. can't see why some are getting so pissed off b/c you qouted a time 0.2s off without launch control?
  17. The ZR1 corvette will probably top the R35
  18. heres another one for even less - 102K http://www.j-spec.com.au/list/index.php?ID=12317
  19. Gee's the edward lee and jspec GTr prices are not even close to each other. Looks like Lee is putting a 45K premium on each car. Not bad those 20 GTRs will give him an extra 900K in the bank over the jspec people.
  20. OK heres a scenario. the 3 cars are all in 3rd doing 40km/hr in the dry and they floor it. The 3 cars dont lose traction. My assumption will be that the F6 and w427 will not fall behind the GTR. Similar weight, power and torque. If Im not wrong the old F6 had accleration figures from 80-120km same as the Porsche 911.
  21. i would have thought this would be due to traction. i have a feeling if they were rolling and had no traction loss these cars would keep up.
  22. Was on the xr6T forum today. They were comparing the new F6 with the w427. There speculating the F6 will have around 600nm of torque and about 320-330kw, compared to the w427 with 370kw and 650nm? torque. the F6 will probably cost 1/2 the price and may actually keep up with the w427. Now I think the R35 doesnt weigh all that much less than the F6 and w427. It has less torque than both and its power figure sits in the middle of both. Would it be reasonable to say that the F6 or the w427 could out accelerate the R35 if they were rolling and did not loose traction? Im not too keen on anything with 7L but the F6 with launch control could be a ball tearer.
  23. Rather than email why dont you just give him a call :laughing-smiley-014: Colin Buckley. COMPANY SECRETARY. Tel: 03 9797 4120
  24. I go on that site from time to time, and the discussions on that forum are mostly constructive, with educated opinions. I have been toying with the idea of getting an LS3 HSV.
  25. Have a read from LS1 forum. In first post it says a few have already put a deposit down for the R35. Looks like a few HSV folk will be joining this forum next year. http://www.ls1.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=94095
