Well since Kel is off in Tassie hooning around in an r35 again, I figured it was time to take over the tv and go through the collection.

I ended up choosing the Italian Job (original of course), but what else is worth a watch?

cannot remember the name of it but its about the american fella who tried to jump his car 1 mile.

EDIT: The Devil at your heels. Ken Carter is the crazy nutcase.

yeah Chris, for sure. I reckon Ronin might be *the* best car movie. I was ->| |<- close to choosing it tonight.

The problem is once you know the twist it takes some of the interest out.

But still "A+++ would use again"

hahaha Lol @ benny hill!

didn t know they had computers then haha :(

Oh, Duncan, FnF is more a drinking movie now....

drink on gear shifts....

drink on "NaaawwwwwwSSSsssSSsSSSs"

drink on FWD skids

drink on teh cool name brands they mention!

LOL

Yes, Ronin is awesome!

Love the older audi in it!

on a side note....was italian job (1969) the first movie to come up with the idea of hacking computers?

Benny Hills stars as the hacker :(

Gone In 60 Seconds

Mad Max - Original

Days Of Thunder

Transporter

FNF series if your feeling all heckic n shiz

good calls iain. I've been meaning to watch the transporter ones, must get hold of them.

gone in 60 sec must be one of the few where the remake was better than the original

Duncan, I'm going thru my old movies and anything I REALLY like I'm updating to Blu-Ray versions.

Looking for an excuse to update the two Transporter movies, as well as Death Proof and a few others. If you want either or all of them, you can have them cheap cheap!!!

Other movies with good car chases and/or scenes include Crank and Ferris Beuller's Day Off. I'm sure there are heaps more out there. A quick Google search came up with these sites:

I've already got Blu-Ray copies of Bullitt and Ronin. I've also just bought Wanted, but haven't watched it yet.

    • AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.
    • Heys guys I got a r32 gtst speedo is out by 10kph seems the faster I go the more it be out  just seeing if anyone else had to problem and knows how to fix it 
    • I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better. 
    • 2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)
    • OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
