i like the great race!

the part where professor fete crashes into the barn, he gets up and says, "i'd like to see the great leslie try that one!!!"

it gets me every time! haha!

also the massive pie fight towards the end of the movie. "throw more brandy!!!" lol

bathurst 1991 haha ;p

mad max for sure, the fact that all the stunts are real and not computer generated is awesome, not to mention the cars themselves! I always thought the fast and the furious movies are brilliant comedies, but thats about it!

Probably one that a lot of people havn't seen because i dont think it got released in Aus or atleast ive never seen it in a shop (my old man brought a burnt copy back from afghanistan). Its called Redline and pretty much has a shit load of exotic cars racing. Movie is pretty crap but how many movies contain a Ferrari Enzo, Porsche Careera GT, Ford GT40, Lambo Diablo etc etc. Pretty sure i read somewhere that the director of the movie owned all the cars, lucky c**t.

For an actual good movie to watch then yeah Tokyo Drift, Gone in 60 Seconds etc.

Running on Empty.... so many good parts and great lines " If you want to fight a war u got to have technology !!! Technology costs money and money we dont got !!! LMAO ... but fav is when the old guys showing him how to drive the blown 57 chev.

If i was a million aire i would deffinatly have a Blown 57 chev 2 door in the garage. Next to a nice R35 GTR :)

tokyo drift is such a love hate thing. i LOVE the drifting/action/cars but i HATE the wankiness. like c'mon as if some can beat "the dk" in what 2 WEEKS OF PRACTICE!???!?!. And also i was so angry when i saw everyone in the cinema carpark tryin 2 drift in their excels and lancers. I HATE OVERNIGHT FANS!!!

Death proof is pretty awesome, but my favourite would have to be the original Italian Job, and C'etait un Rendezvous - Only 9 minutes, but definatly worth tracking down a propper copy and watching on a good AV setup (plus some mind altering susbstances if you are so inclined :D ) - not on youtube!

vanishing point ...... just the whole film with the 1970 dodge challenger car chase across the desert.

metal skin..... with the aussie steel body charger.

steve mcqueens Bullet.. love the car chase seen and then the roll over in the 1970s charger .

and many other

after seeing last week bullitt for the first time im gonna have to go with it! hearing those v8s is just FANTASTIC! after watching it i realised how seemingly fickle fast and furious movies are (the fact that theres no music/dialog and no rice..)

blues brothers is straight after though, and being a james bond fan goldfinger is great, the spy who loved me and the living daylights better (through those tight hills in the lotus and blasting through the semi trailer respectively)

The Legend of Speed. old japanese flick about an Evo 5 (I think) and WRX. really good movie, initial d style, but I'm pretty sure the original was made before initial d. Last time I saw it was in primary school. there are some good youtube vids around of it.

    • -9s are discontinued supposedly. But you can still get Nismo R3 turbos which are something like a -7 but subtly different? -7s are also available. HKS GTIII-SS and GTIII-2530 are also available but they're journal bearing MHI turbos.
    • Late to this party but here is your go to shop in perth - https://www.facebook.com/gsautoworksau GTSBOY is on the money cost wise, drive in and out will cost you 15-30k or more.    Some items that will save you money  - plug in link ecu g4x is much cheaper than haltech.   -Pulsar turbo, seem to be "OK" now, never used one myself You really don't have to build the motor, E85, headgasket, studs and a good RB26 will live for ever.    Swapping over the twins won't save much as you still need ecu, tune, fuel system etc.          
    • 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.
