I HEARD a F430 in Sydney this morning coming towards me while waiting for my car to come pick me at the hotel..

Then as coming to the lights near me it was down shifting one of the best noises in the world.

Followed by a slaughtering of a take off.. That thing is PORN!!!

It had trader plates so the person driving must have been loving it considering it wasn't his car :D

Very dark grey Lambo followed me along Alexandra Parade, he gave it a squirt as he went past then turned into the dealership on Chapel St. Had trade plates on, looked like the new dark grey one I have seen pics of floating around in Europe but could be wrong. :)

Aston Martin DB9 and some other strange looking Aston Martin with a hideous chrome mesh grille and air dam (don't have the faintest what it was), both going down the South Gippsland Fwy and the Mooruduc at separate times today.

at a very rich friends 21st the other week.. his dad had just 4 of his ~40 cars on show in the garage (complete with hoist!)

*AC Cobra x 2

*Aston Martin DB5 [only one in Aus, recently stolen then recovered, i think it was reported in the news?]

*Bugatti Type 35

i estimated about $2.5mil from these cars alone... couldnt believe it!! pics to come

ps. the house is an enormous unit in caulfield, sorta along Dandenong road if anyone knows the area

*Aston Martin DB5 [only one in Aus, recently stolen then recovered, i think it was reported in the news?]

Stolen car was a DB4 GT, apparently recovered due to complete idiocy on part of the thieves rather than good police work.

ah, that's the one. as i said im mates with the owner's son and he had told me it was a db5.

still porn nonetheless..

Ah right, probably why I didn't recognise the badge. I don't think I've ever seen one before. Creamish coloured interior, old guy driving it (and driving it annoyingly well under the speed limit.) I liked the rear and side profile of it, front was a bit meh.

Bentley Continental

Twin Turbo W12 goodness (but slower than an F430 in roll on drag race...... apparently)

However, it is faster than an Aston Martin DB9 in a roll on drag race... apparently :dry:

    • 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.
    • When you looking to buy injectors?? I could possibly sell you my 1d1700s for decent price. Done little work I just need bigger again 😫
