this was at a Holden dealership.

that was in artarmon wasn't it Andrew?

its not actually a Holden dealership, its some sort of supercar dealership in the same building, I've also seen some lotuses and a TVR in there....

Its certainly no supercar, but I spotted a 2008 model HSV Grange yesterday...

The most interesting thing about it was the number plates: LS7 HSV :rolleyes:

LS7 is the 7.0L V8 from the Z06 isnt it!? Is this guy lying or is this a test mule maybe?

Phwoaah.. I didnt know they had the CCR in oz yet!

Good spot (even if by proxy! :))

ok sweet thanx 4 dat.. plus they didnt even have one at the motor show so i found it quite strange

Yeah I wasnt surprised that the Veyron wasnt there... 99% of all cars displayed are there for one reason - to be sold! There is no reason to go to the expense to display a Veyron if there is no plan to sell the car in australia (unfortunately for us! :w00t:).

The Sydney "International" Motor Show isnt really a hugely important show in the scheme of things anyway. The Lamborghini Reventon was going to be displayed this year, but they decided not to bring it here JUST IN CASE something went wrong with shipping and they werent able to get the car back in time for the Tokyo Motor Show... it shows how important we are! :D

Yeah, there was a guy on the news a while ago that owned one... and some shit happen with a bank, and the bank wanted to take it off him, so he hid it in some shed somewhere under some shit :D

I'm fairly sure these are unregisterable...

Spotted a whole bunch of Aston Martins, Porsches and various other luxo-mobiles just then, as I went with my old man to Trivett to pick up a car. All of Trivett's service centres are grouped together in Parra/Rosehill. Didn't see Samuel (WTF33R)'s car tho...

Also saw an AMG SLK about 10 minutes later - not sure if it was an SLK55 or 63 or what, but it sounded HOT!!!

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
