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.

    • Unless there's something particular about the Greddy manifold's injector holes that I'm not aware of, those injetcors look to be totally wrong. They would absolutely want to be spaced up to get those long snouts out of the runner. Which, I think, is not usually the way that that problem is solved. I think the problem is solved by using the correct injectors, which would be much more like what Andrew posted.
    • Thanks for the reply, So i've continued playing around, and fitted the injector adaptors onto the injector, the fuel rail is not able to be mounted now as the injectors sit a bit further out. I suppose the point of the adaptors is so that the injector nozzle isn't so deep into the intake? I suppose 1mm extra on the o-ring would do it but still can't mount the rail onto the intake haha. Waiting on a reply from Aeroflow I'm sure there's something stupid that I'm missing...
    • EMJ33 or EJM33 - west end
    • I have a radium fuel rail on my Greddy manifold and used the supplied radium fuel injector to manifold adapters (The round green things pictured). I did always wonder if you could just go ahead and use the second lower hole like you're doing... Wouldn't thicker o-rings solve your issue?    
    • From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"
