It's been a very busy world these last 3-months.

I pop in here most days, but there's not really that much going on relevant to me anymore, so I don't tend to post very often. Plus it's generally pretty boring :(

So...

Since March I've had the opportunity to tootle around in some amazing cars, whether beloning to P1, customers or just people who seem to think nothing of throwing me the keys and telling me to go for a spin. From this - I certainly have a few favourites... but would I buy any of them if I could?

And the answer is yes, yes I would.

So let's ask the question.

You have a 3-car garage. These are the only cars you would have - and so you would have to live with them every day.

What would they be?

* RULES - need to be available in Australia, so Veyrons are out. Need to be driven daily so LHD and race cars are out.

Here's a picture of a 3-car Garage to help you out:

BTW - for me...

1. Porsche 997 GT3

2. Audi RS4 Avant

3. P1 membership (I'm serious - I could never live with a Ferrari or Lambo, this would let me park something nice and special when I would be able to use it). Or a monster-truck Lada - it's a close call.

Yes, the GT3 - track spec (RS) is something ive dreamed about and heard/read a lot about over the years.

And a good porka looks HOT. And would be given a flogging being the track spec.

Second... that would be an Aston. For a daily :D

And 3rd, a Dodge Viper. Always loved them

I dunno if they are LHD when they get here, but ive seen them on the road before a number of times, so they must be legal if people are driving them with rego plates and stickers etc. That would be the weekender.

Well for me.........

1. New BMW M3 V8 version (even an E46 M3 CSL would be sweet)

2. R34 GT-R V-Spec Nur in Millenium Jade

3. Porsche GT3 RS in orange as the weekender

And if you include near future releases, well the new GT-R V6TT would have to slot in there somewhere :)

oh i like this thread!

1) Lotus exige S (the supercharged version)

2) r34 GTR Nur :)

Edit: no scratch that, id mix em up for work/weekend/fun usage! :)

yeah you can drive em lhd for some reason...but you can get places like sports & luxury cars to convert it to right hand drive

    • I wouldn't be concerned at all, other than to suggest having them flow tested when you receive them to confirm they are reasonably similar, and then put the highest to lowest flowing ones in cylinder 6,1,5,2,4,3
    • I’m only posting this cause I thought I had seen a bad review on these somewhere before. Any feedback? Would you guys recommend that if I do buy these I send em to RC to have em checked before installing. Or any other suggestions?   https://www.ebay.com/itm/114009965865?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=JDl-15yLQ8C&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=QTzlFXB1S-S&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY
    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
