Spotted another Veyron today, baby blue on silver. Also more ferrari's than you can poke a stick at, then there was the Conti's, porches and SLR Merc's. Anyone care to guess which city/Kingdom i am in at the moment???

I'll put some pic's up when i get them off the camera.

Jeff we timed 2 laps - did a 1.50.0 and a 1.50.2. Apparently Christian Murchisan did a high 1.48 earlier in the week.

Not bad for a production car on street rubber (Pirelli P Zero). I sure as hell was impressed. Not to mention I did 40 laps in 2hrs and the car was still perfect at the end (brakes fine, water 90degs and oil 100degs)

FYI Christian did some hot laps in the RS4 which we timed at 1.55.2 - so the R8 is considerably quicker.

That's awesome isn't it? This newer generation of cars are really eclipsing the previous generation.

saw a black c63.. plates were 19 or 16

in camberwell it tore past me.. that engine actually made me semi errect. was good to say someone buying one of those n using that car to its potential.

Ah... nope. There's a few now.

You should retract that statement before you are forced to eat your (vegetarian) hat...

LOL @ Vegetarian Hat :laughing-smiley-014:

Seems my eye for one colour Veyron's let me down this time though :wave:

it's my boss, the plates are 19, i think there for sale with all his other plates

I feel so depressed again, have seen so many Maseratis, a few 599 Ferraris or a few of them may have been 612s?!?! Saw a shitty R35 that was going farking fast and loudly and proudly down the road. A few M6s...like i said, its depressing looking at all these big dollar cars being driven by blokes younger then me, And very few of them are ex-pats :wave:

    • -9s are discontinued supposedly. But you can still get Nismo R3 turbos which are something like a -7 but subtly different? -7s are also available. HKS GTIII-SS and GTIII-2530 are also available but they're journal bearing MHI turbos.
    • Late to this party but here is your go to shop in perth - https://www.facebook.com/gsautoworksau GTSBOY is on the money cost wise, drive in and out will cost you 15-30k or more.    Some items that will save you money  - plug in link ecu g4x is much cheaper than haltech.   -Pulsar turbo, seem to be "OK" now, never used one myself You really don't have to build the motor, E85, headgasket, studs and a good RB26 will live for ever.    Swapping over the twins won't save much as you still need ecu, tune, fuel system etc.          
    • Welcome back to the scene! Godzilla Motorsports were well regarded back in the day.  My GT-R had work done there prior to my ownership.   SRS (Street Race Solutions) in Toowoomba worth a look.  They've built some pretty wild Skylines. Their YouTube channel is comedic to watch!  I'm sure they're all on the glass BBQ but they get shit done! 🤣
    • Hard to say what the extra connector is, it looks a bit like a coax type connector, so possibly a separate radio/GPS antenna, or even another camera input?  The V37 series (including the Q50), did go through a model refresh in 2020, since Australia didn't get any Q50s newer than 2019, we didn't get any of the refreshed models, so there could also be other unexpected problems to overcome to swap an older Q50 head unit into a new model V37. There probably aren't too many people around that have made these sorts of changes to a Q50/V37, so you might end up being the first if you do decide to go ahead. ACP is Apple Car Play and AA is Android Auto, they are roughly the same thing for the 2 major phone operating systems (Apple's iOS and Android), it allows you to connect your phone and access a number of your phone applications on your car system.  With Nav apps included, so you could use google maps/Waze or whatever your favourite navigation app is, instead of using the built in navi system.  I think this would be a better solution if it is only Navigation that you are looking as swapping the head unit for. GPS signals are the same around the globe as the GPS satellites continuously circle the globe, but it is the head unit that doesn't allow you to load Australian maps, or at least no-one had made an Australian map that will load up on the JDM head unit. Regarding the TV standards, I assume you are referring to the AV inputs?  I haven't ever tried to use them, Japan used a slightly modified version of the US NTSC system, and Australia uses PAL for composite video, that said, I wouldn't be surprised if a video input could work with either system.  That is mostly irrelevant here though, unless you plan to use those inputs for something?
    • If you've got bucket loads of $. Go single. If not, just upgrade the twins, Garrett -9's or whatever the current equivalent is for a healthy 350awkw and leave it at that. Will probably still cost you 10k to do in this day and age.
