Bond for my money. Saw Casino Royale yesterday, best Bond movie in ages. I had my doubts about Daniel Craig as Bond but he is awesome, no more Brosnan crap! Back to basics was cool I reckon, very few gadgets, no Q, no Bond Theme music ( till right near the end )..... the move was better for it.

My thoughts exactly Rod. Back to basics Bond was awesome! No more saving the World from being blown up sh|te.

If you want to gadgets, go see a Matthew Broderick movie.

I would have liked to see the DBS a bit longer but all the recent Bond movies have had the car destroyed within 60 secs of driving.

Bond is undoubtedly cooler.

Better cars, hotter women, and in several films, it was alluded that he had a 3-way. Did Jack ever accomplish the bedroom trifecta? I think not!

By this acheivement alone, Bond wins.

But factor in that when Jack takes a beating, he wakes up in some gutter or warehouse facility. In octopussy (and various other movies) when bond gets KO'd (usually be a suprise 'judo chop' from behind) he wakes up being cared for by a dozen or so nubile young lovelies.

Scantily clad young stunners > hospital/warehouse.

And finally, Bond drinks like a fish.

So he get's pissed, drives like a maniac, chases women whenever he can, ignores authority and often pruposely opposes it, understands cricket, can shoot can't seem to do much in the kitchen without burning stuff down, and the Yanks think he has a weird accent.

Hell, Bond could be an Aussie.

we all know that Bond is cooler/sexier/classier/what not... but if it comes down to it, I'd want Jack watching my back - I'm all for shoot first/ask questions later...

besides I get to drive an Aston Martin in January as a Christmas present (YAY! *hopes for a vanquish s* :P), so Bond isn't soo special anymore :O

Hell, Bond could be an Aussie.

he was - George Lazenby... and he was the worst one to date...

I refuse to accept George Lazenby as an Aussie. He was shit as Bond, and married the chick. A definate no-no for Bond.

Marriage = no more 3 ways. (well, presumably anyway.) therefore Bond should batch it a while longer.

It's funny though, anyone who spent more than three days of their formative years in Australia, we adopt (or if they're cool and a kiwi) but if they screw up too bad, we never knew em.

Mel Gibson, Nicole Kidman, Russel Crowe...

Imagine Rusty as Bond! I can just see Q giving him the 'mobile phone of death' or villians slipping him a 'beat random people' drug.

Actually, it'd be pretty funny.

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣

      I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia.

      Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.

      R33 fuel setup

      I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).

      As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
