I did manage to run into these 2 lovely ladies not too long ago. Parked in a line and on Chapel St surprise!!!

Maaaaan the Lambo looks awesome in the flesh, photos don't do it justice!

Bah! thumbnails are crap. cant quote with them. this ^^ guy has photos of the same one two pages back.

spotted a red f430 at century city walk, plates 999-430

I've seen the same Rosso 599 about 4 times in the last week. Has a 2-letter plate (WM or something).

In CBD and around Albert Park.

Also, when we had the DB9 at Aston getting brake pads changed yesterday, Lindsay was collecting his Rolls DHC.

Just the thing for Christmas.

A customer has given me his 993 Turbo to drive around for the weekend.

The 993 was the last air-cooled 911, and the first Turbo with AWD (shared with 993 Carrera 4).

Pic is example only - but same colour...

Is pretty quick and good fun, but doesn't feel as solid as the newer cars - and it loves to slide, especially in the wet. Power is strong, especially on boost... but it's very manageable. Considering this is the same age as an R33 GT-R it still fetches about $150k (love that Teutonic resale!) - but if anything it shows how good the Skyline is for the money.

unfortunately when i was in melbourne ealier this year my mates 993 GT2 was down at Auto Art being worked on otherwise would have gone for a cruise in it.

oh well he has ordered a 997 GT2 and GT3 :rofl: can't wait for them to arrive

Not really spotted per say, but...

*sigh...

So your Boxing Day was spent collecting this from the impound lot I take it?

saw the same one today - just after waverley rd on springvale rd (near the mobil petrol station) at around 4pmish. He was waiting for his friend in the yellow gallardo which was pulled over by the cops just after century city on springvale rd. such nice machinery....

Well here is a Lotus 2-Eleven that was in work about 2 months ago:

And this has been around for about 3 or 4 weeks now so today while it was quiet i took some shots.. Morgan Aero 8.. worth above $250,000 :(

Yeah - that's the Sienna crew

You can see a TR behind the Murch and a 355 over the road.

Here is the 997 Turbo Cab Taxi - and yes, yellow seatbelt and yellow interior options were ticked...

Yeah I cant believe the person ordered it like this.

The colour combo (unless you are Age) would wear very thin on you after a few months of ownership.

Thanks for posting up the PICS James.

Cant wait to the new Dealership is complete.

    • The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.
    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
