Pretty much an open-world racer with Forza simulation physics and mechanics. I'M EXCITED. Would be like TDU with proper physics. Made in association with Playground Games. E3 Trailer http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YvOPw720-r0 E3 Demonstration (watch this for what the games about. (gameplay starts 12:00. first few minutes could probably be skipped).

+1 for more pics.

this meet was much the same in Cali imagine getting a facebook invite to a small car meet at the local Krispy Kreme's. Then rocking up to 4000+ cars. http://losangeles.cbslocal.com/video/7344866-thousand-of-cars-crash-parking-lot-in-burbank/

doesnt require organising. just make open invitations on every social media site known to man. Thats how they did it.

touché. didnt check the 33 sedan. but im still convinced its prohibited as vicroads states the manufacturer has to fit the power/weight ratio. its more for new cars than existing old cars.

only applies to new cars i believe as manufacturers are supposed to include the power/weight ratio on the build plates. As per vicroads website so old liner's are still prohibited as per vehicle database. You can apply for an exemption for an R32 GTST Sedan as it's deemed a "family car" (4 seats + child restraint anchorages) at 121kw/tonne as a "low-powered turbo car" EDIT: we were having this discussion in the "General automotive thread" under "best non-turbo skyline". for arguments sake heres the power/weight ratios for some skylines but i believe the new legislation only applies to new cars that have the PWR on the build plate as this whole thing is based around the new Ford Ecoboost

because its under the power/weight ratio. under 125/tonne. as i said in my post, vic is adopting the power/weight ratio rule as well. if it's under 100/tonne (or 125/tonne for a 4 seater), its legal for P-plates (thats in VIC). In QLD, its 125kw/tonne regardless i believe. R34 GT-T, RB25DET NEO (206kw), Curb weight 1,410kg 206/1410 = 146kw/tonne = BANNED R33 GTS-T, RB25DET (184kw), Curb Weight 1,390kg 184/1390 = 132kw/tonne = BANNED R32 GTS-T (Coupe), RB20DET (158kw), Curb Weight 1,280 158/1280 = 123kw/tonne = A-OK for QLD but BANNED in VIC because 2-door R32 GTS-T (Sedan), RB20DET (158kw), Curb Weight 1,300 (working off the approximation that sedan is 20kg heavier than coupe) 158/1300 = 121kw/tonne = A-OK for QLD & VIC Disclaimer: OEM power outputs and weights coming from wikipedia. If anyone has any more reliable sources on factory power outputs and/or weights, i'd love to see them as i've found different answers for curb weights. Also, does NSW go by the power/weight ratio or blanket ban?

In other news: vicroads is revoking the blanket ban on turbo/supercharged cars and reverting to the power/weight ratio. 100kw/tonne (or 125kw/tonne for cars with 4 seats and child restraint anchorages) A victory for common sense. But not much else. 34 gtt's, 33 gtst's are still a no go.32 gtst coupes are out as well leaving the 32 gtst sedan open for Vic p platers. TL:DR, The TAC did something logical for once

yes that is a pic from the party. no i did not take the photo. should have specified. pic came from here

just sidetracking a bit on the article. the first and only (so far) One-77 in Australia arrived to it's owner last month. The owner is based in the Gold Coast. Price to get it here was allegedly 3MIL, and the owner threw a suit and tie party to celebrate it's arrival.

i here good things about Racepace. they're something of a GTR specialist and i believe they've done work for the race-prepped R's. As for OP. i believe theres only two GTR dealerships in VIC. Werribee and Ferntree gully. EDIT: just realised this threads 2 years old.

just a heads up. you'll probably have a tough time finding an NA S14. the S14 200sx's only came to australia with a DET. Theres a NA swapped one on carsales though

yep. thats why their racing number is 23. that or they're massive Michael Jordan fans.

sorry for thread revive. but found this and laughed...a lot.

as if. i like marty. he's the brains of the show, moog's the personality

silver R34 GTR parked at AMF bowling on nepean hwy about 10 minutes ago. didnt get a good look, was driving past. but dayuuum, looked mean sitting there under the street lights.

more old school Datto action

*nostalgia. anyone else follow Marty & Moog over at MCM?

something nostalgic for you folks

This. There's a matte black c63 5 minds away from my house. Its been parked in the street for the past couple of weeks, looks like really cheap chalkboard now

Ever seen a 60-something year old woman make an 11 second pass in her C63 AMG.? Nucking Futs.

upload to photobucket/flickr or something, then when you go to post, at the top where "bold" and "italics" are, to the right you'll see an "image" button. paste your photos URL there and done.

both.

f**king hell. i wanted to go soooo bad but made plans when i couldnt get tickets. Dallas Green is a musical god live.

^^^ any more pics? shit thats amazing. both the car and the pic
