Isn't it funny, if it was one of us or anyone in a Jap import for that matter the media, police, Gov't & everyone else with a soap-box woulda been screaming "Hoon this, Ban that" etc etc

f**ken Hypocrites

Josh, matt, this isnt a thread over which one of ur cocks is 'bigger' (i use the word 'bigger' very losely) its about who was at fault, the car (LOL) or the driver

:laughing-smiley-014:

Nope, I saw your dads car this arvo on my way back from Noosa, he was heading towards Kawana from your house...

He over took a van and I wet my pants... :D

Oh really now. I'll have to inform him of his naughty driving :)

Ferrari's are faster than Porsche's.....F430's do 0-100 in 4.1, 911 GT3's do 0-100 in 4.3..on a circuit a 911 GT3 will probably be faster..but yea, Ferrari's have better power figures...they also weigh a touch more. Theres been mixed reviews but the F430 is commonly rated higher than the new Porsche 911 GT3...big price difference though, at least Porsches are relatively cheap.

I wouldnt call a porsche 911 GT2 cheap at $440,000.

I was going off the most expensive new porsche as per carsales.com which was a 911 997 Turbo which is 335k....still cheap in the luxury car world...in comparison to the most expenseive, lambo's, ferrari's etc...main point is most of Porsche's cars are around the 100-230k mark, whereas most other luxury cars dont even start near that price.

Right right right. :)

We're not talking "super car/extremely rare" sale price's here. Most of the more "common" Ferrari's are around the $300k+ (resale) which that 997 price is or it's an auto... In reality only one or two AMG's only come close in that price range, BMW M series don't even rank in that price range. I duno if I would rank Lambo's with Ferrari and Porsche, the are much more of an Exotic.

If you wana start talking more rare ones, last time I spoke with Gemballa, there "GT700" Cayenne wasn't far off $600k or something, road cars built by them are all Dependant on what spec it is, even the 911 GT1 (road legal version) you'll be lucky to pick up for Enzo money these days.

Older 911's and base newer ones are in the price you mention, dads black 911 was $100k even, but thats had a concourse restoration and it's only a 1990. He had a look at a 993 Twin Turbo when he was in Sydney last month for $210k at a dealership and it was pure shit/daily driven kays.. Get you pay for..

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

No wait wait let me finish

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

ahahahahahahahahahaha ok bs

:thumbsup: How can most people ignore other possible variables of deceleration and jump to the conclusion? What happen to road surface, oil, water, dust, tyres contacts, reaction time at lunch time etc :laughing-smiley-014: good point..

silverbulletR33 maybe he read the signs..." Parking at rear" :domokun:

    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy  
    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
    • As well as being risky WRT tipping off anyway. Yeah, I wouldn't expect it to move. Just measure from the rear one to the front one on the good side, then measure that same length on the wrecked side. You will find the notches in the pinchweld, and the jacking pad. Just spray a spot of marker paint or something there.
