shit that sucks... i always like to read post and articles by real revheads about their cars ... and ur cars munro are some excellent examples ... its a shame ... i just wonder how they went about finding out about the cars ... i mean what kind of idiot would go out of their way to do this sort of thing??

I agree with you hippy - what drives individuals to go head-hunting in reference to these sort of issues (barely an issue). It's disgusting that red tape gets in the way of a good time and that people are so jealous that they would stoop this low. (Same as the cops reading posts in Vic)

Munro - saw the SPEED article (i knew it was you hehe), love your garage - top choices (right down to colours). Dont worry about the "feds" they've just got a chronic case of tall poppy syndrome!! Years of driving company VT Commodores would drive anyone mad!!

Keep on boosting - and get rid of the SS Ute - you know you want an FPV Pursuit (290Kw & 520Nm) hehe

john - when the M3 arrives, post some piccies! I love bmws but they are a bit common these days. Still got a soft spot for the M's. Its not the M3 CSL is it that you have ordered?

cheers,

dave

ps - its good that guys like you, who have the nice cars are prepared to let us enthusiasts drool over them... unlike a few drag skylines around at the moment.

Guy Bowden took 700 photos over 2 days for that article!!! It's

amazing how much work it all is, but it's good fun.

My SS ute is a good all rounder, but I do like the pursuit ute in blueprint - biggest flaw for me is the poxy cheap interior door handles - what a let down on an otherwise excellent vehicle.The

SS does have 235rwkw which is over 300kw at the flywheel anyway.

Not getting the CSL, just a regular SMG II in Estoril Blue.They are very comfortable & handle extremely well, & sometimes I get sick of stiff suspension & hard seats & just want a little class.

I hope you all enjoy the magazine article, I must say it's great to walk into a newsagent & see your own cars on the cover of such a good magazine.

Keep Boosting,

Later.

Munro, Can't believe you'd consider selling the R34. They R such a rarity on the streets and turn much more heads. Most others who can afford em use em for track work or events like running the Targa Tasmania, not regular street driving. The other group spend the dosh on what they consider to be "top echelon" sports cars. I suppose the work goin into Doug's old R33 would negate the use of the 34 but damnnnnnnn wat a loss.

Yeah, its a bit of a dilema for me.I had it for a year & totally enjoyed driving it everywhere.If I do sell it, it would be great if it stayed in Adelaide - but will have to wait & see.

hey guys/gals,

Just read the article in the 'Speed' mag about the GTR vs EVO vs STi, awesome read. But did notice something... that mentioning of a 'John Munro' and also a the fact that this person owns GTR's, EVO's and M3's... i'm assuming this is u Munro? Or some very freaky coincidence/identical lives!

Anyways, i think it has been out for a little while so prob old news to most ppl but thought it was a great read, and yes the GTR is still King baby! And yes, Munro, u have THE best garage ever.  

Power FC plus exhuast + RB26DETT = 272rwkw :devil::D That's what the mag said... that's what i call impressive, couldn't believe it!!

Oh yeah, did have a question. Are M3's good drift cars?

interesting that ur turbos are hanging in there at 1.2 bar.

mine lasted 5 minutes,initially tuned at 1.1bar with standard ecu at 250kw at the wheels,lasted a week before i lost an exhaust wheel.

thought maybe a pre existing problem,but car was stock as a rock.

bit of a mystery

    • I'll tell her I put in a new air filter on it, which, it would have anyway with the ITB's In the end she isn't to fussed, she spends lots of money on hair, nails, make-up and all the other "required" beauty products that women use, plus I grease the wheels with shiny gifts and holidays wherever and whenever I can She once questioned my car spending "budget", but after itemising everything she spends on herself, and what I spend on her, and the fact that I don't care if she does or doesn't wear make-up and fancy pants perfume, or requires new outfits for every wedding, funeral or anything else she deems worthy, and I'm quite happy to go "real" camping, instead of staying in hotels or jaunts on cruise ships, she decided not to press the subject on how I spend funds, and has never asked "how much did that cost" again, so a win to me And how often can you say you really get a win with the fairer sex? She is a good woman, and in the big picture, I'm really lucky.....that she hasn't killed me yet
    • What will you do when the Minister of War and Finance says the intake noises are too loud?
    • Will the clear coat dissolve the ink tho?? I thought about clear vinyl tape too. Thinking what to do haha. The one I have now is cracked in 1 spot, otherwise mint. Plus the MINES one is much thicker plastic material so its not flimsy at all.
    • No. Go a different colour, and just trim it at an edge line. Even manufacturers do different panels different colours etc.
    • I see no real downsides to ITB's, apart from the initial cost of my drive in drive out lifestyle, the "upsides" is they sound cool and would add lots of smiles I am willing to pay to play for the extra smiles I've spent the morning googling and youtubing the BBR ITB's, a "little" extra power and throttle response, but alot more dort, and really, I'm only really in it for the dort Who knows, after all this money is spent I might even make 150kwatw....LOL
