Yeah - and they're all "slower" than the Datsun 120Y my mate who worked at McDonalds put together in 1993.

I've been in all of them at speed, and I know which I prefer.

Strange, seems that every single comparison I've read has said otherwise, but to each their own!

Re: Aston DBRS9 - it belongs to Johnny K. His other toys include the R34 Nismo Z-Tune GT-R.

And look - it's a Peteborghini!

Who's Johnny K?!?! Goddamn one lucky bastard. He owns the only Z-Tune in Australia, right? There's a youtube video of that car on the Eastern fwy.

Close call, but i'd still take the Z-tune over the Aston if I could choose one. I'd like to pull more G's than chicks any day :)

I remember reading in a Unique Cars magazine that he also owned a GT2 at one point; he said the Z tune was faster over a longer distance in a straight line if I remember correctly.

...er, there must have been two R8's last night, I drove on Burwood Hwy to go out for dinner, then drove back about 2 hours later, does this make me a wanker ??? I did go Chapel cruising I think that does makes me a wanker :)

All Audi R8s are nice, dude.

And maybe he was test driving it? :)

      Yeah since those first 2 replies I actually went and put some 98 in it and tbf it's already doing much better than the 95 (which is weird and makes my inner tinfoil hat wearer think the 95 was a crap batch), getting 8ish around town. Again, wonder if it takes a while to stabilize if the fuel is changed a couple of times. I swear cars used to just either run "well" or "s**t* in my 20s, none of this fuel optimisation business haha

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Any number of different ways. Have the coils draw sufficient current to provide contact wetting. Use different contacts in the switch, either by material or design, better suited to the low current drawn by a relay coil. Etc.

      Hmm, how does the R34 manage to have headlight relays then without getting excessive carbon buildup on the headlight switch contacts?

      Not R7R. Meant to type R&R, obviously enough.

      R33 headlight relay conversion?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Bugger "making it look stock". I put one conventional internally fused Hella relay behind each globe. I just pulled the plugs off the back of the globes and built new loom segments with male and female plug parts to match up to the original loom and the globe, and used the original power wires to each globe coming from the switch through the original loom plug to trigger the relays. Ran a big fat (also separately fused) power wire across the front of the car to feed all the relays. It's as ugly as f**k, but it is wedged down between the headlight and battery on the RHS and the airbox and headlight on the LHS, and no-one ever looks in my engine bay, and on the odd occasion that they do I simply give no f**ks for what they think. Fully reversible - not that you'd ever want to. For f**k's sake. It's a Skyline. They made million of the bloody things. We've been crashing them into roadside furniture for 30 years now. There is a negative side effect to putting relays on the headlights. The coil current is too little to properly clean the contacts in the switches and they get blacked up and you have to open them up every couple of years and clean them manually. I have 25 years of experience on this point.
