Spotted a Caterham Fireblad on the way to work! I don't think I've ever seen a real Caterham on the road before!

Oh also spotted a 370Z... was pretty meh, not different enough to the 350

You can register Caterhams? :(

Awesome..

gotta get me one lol.

Actually come to think of it..that would explain why i thought there was one at Blacktown Tafe one night..it had a car cover on it..but it had that sort of shape

Spotted a blue Ferrari F430 Scuderia, Miller St Cammeray.

Also has the number plate '348' which itself would be worth about 5 times my car.

Also nearby were a black Maserati GranTurismo and red Quattroporte, looked like there was a Mafia boss meeting at Maggio's cafe...

I don't see why not... You can register a PRB which is a caterham copy, but I had never seen a real caterham on the road before... my boss used to race the PRBs, they're crazy quick! Beat the race porches... Dog box and semi slicks on like 155 tyres were a bit shit on the road though :domokun:

lol looks like that ferrari is about to get cleaned up by that mazda/corolla.

And also looks like the camera man is going to get taken out by the truck.

Not only am I bringing this thread back from the dead :P

but I also spotted a new black Porsche 911 or 997 turbo wedged under a bus next to a sideways standing bright red new Commodore at the offramp in Chatswood. Looked quite bad, and seemed to delay traffic a fair bit too.

Saw the owners standing on the median strip taking 'not-so' happy snaps

my evo +2 maseratti's.

The red spyder is gay....

the 3200gt is pure sex, silver is a better colour for it than that green, but i like his cream leather colour, mines a navy blue, makes it look old

I spotted a Maserati GT convertible last night on the Central Coast highway while I was on the way to the regular Coastie meet-up, and this afternoon I spotted an Aston Martin fuelling up at Caltex on the corner of Powers and Station Roads in Seven Hills.

    • Hello,new to the group, I bought a R32 from auction recently, wondering if anyone knows the cars history, seems to have the usual go fast bits on it, plan is to do an engine swap- add 2 extra cylinders and 1 extra turbo. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/i4rjmlzubjbwjtguh6f4s/IMG20241011140744.jpg?rlkey=q0lumm251377vknbqktfwrycq&st=7scvwx4e&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ro24qmwzlczzlfsr4y05x/Screenshot_2024-10-10-10-49-23-90_9a2f5bb2149dae94cd1e190effc09b33.jpg?rlkey=oyguh26ttshlf04ccp48odf4v&st=xloae97b&dl=0   New to forums and posting pics, if links don't work, take it easy on me, 42yrs old and I tune carburettors!!  
    • As far as I know, Infiniti stopped importing vehicles before 2020, even though they were still selling their stock for at least a year or 2 after that, they were older build years, therefore, you can import a 2020 400R, because you couldn't buy an AuDM 2020 built Q50 RS. As for insurance, you might need to go through one of the enthusiast insurance companies, they tend to insure a lot more grey import models than the mainstream insurers as Duncan mentioned.
    • loved seeing the zenvo on the a1 just after the hatfield tunnel i was the guy in the white van trying to egg you on it sounded awesome and those exhausts glowing red inside insane cheers for the thumbs up tim and tom.
    • So.... when I'm finally getting around to having my power steering leak sorted, now it looks like I've got the same issue most A/T Skylines are having. My A/T light will randomly come on and I'm stuck in 3rd gear until I turn the car off and on again. Only 3 weeks ago I did a complete transmission service: Oil flush + new gasket + new filter. This came out of nowhere!! It wasn't like the car was driven hard. I drove about 3 mins down the road to get fuel and boom!!!  Anyway, I have a few questions and hope you fine people can help me out here. All questions are in red. 1. The solenoids: I was looking at the parts catalogue in Amayama and I could only find the Solenoids as an assembly. https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/319404ax05 I read in another thread that Solenoid A = 31940-4AX02 & Solenoid B = 31940-4AX05 but the Amayama product has only the code of B. Is this the right part? Can anyone who has done the Solenoid changes or seen them confirm if this is the complete set of A & B?   2. Gasket and Filter: I'm not going to try change the solenoids myself because it seems difficult to do in a home garage with just 2 jack stands. I plan to take it to a shop and get it changed. I was also going to buy the transmission sump gasket at the same time so I don't reuse the same gasket. Should I just use the existing gasket as it has only been on the car since OCT 19th? (~3 weeks) Should I be buying a brand-new gasket and a filter? Does this job involve taking the filter out?   Thanks in advance to everyone. It's hard to find a video of someone doing a solenoid change on a R34 so any help you can give answering my remaining questions would make me less stressed.
    • Yea - From what I have seen from the video, the car idles like any R34 lol 50PSI of fuel pressure is hardly super abnormal, the regulator is working because the pressure remains static when the throttle gets revved, i.e pressure remains the same when manifold vaccuum changes. Bigger pumps on stock rails always bumped the pressure in the rail without using an aftermarket regulator to change that. Do you know what your IAC is actually doing? Has there been any data showing the stepper motor % etc? There's no way your idle is actually moving around the way the cluster(s) are indicating. You would hear the difference with the engine RPM flying to 3k and 1k in mere seconds. I'd be checking the wiring to the tacho. What the tacho is telling you and what the engine/ecu is telling you are different things. I assume your ECU doesn't display the spike. So whatever is telling the tacho to be at X rpm is doing something weird. When the going gets insane, you're on the wrong path. You've ruled out plenty of things that are working correctly/aren't the issue. Your idle isn't doing what the tacho is indicating. You have two seperate issues, I don't think they are linked, and the idle seems reasonably okay unless it's stalling which.. well, it hasn't. Troubleshoot the stall if it occurs by figuring out what your IAC is doing vs what it is being told to do.
