12.9 a 32 R does doesn't it?

Depending on how hard you launch it.

Or with Boost Restrictor removed.

From memory Mr. Windsurf (Andrew) ran a 12.7 sec, no Boost Restrictor.

Times I have seen for the R32 GTR are between 13.7 to 12.8...

But I only take 'published' figures... Meaning magazine articles... Websites are just estimates...

you reckon the BA was no good?

it was a good step forward for ford

new build, new engine from scratch, drive by wire, performance range

before the BA they were really lacking any decent performance models

no i said i liked the BA more than current shape.

maybe from stand still to ~70ks, but after that i doubt the SS would be crying...

i meant @flywheel

HSV coupe/monaro. thank me in a few years when they're worth a pretty penny.

cheaply made yes, compared to an Audi. compared to a Nissan/Toyota? lol dont think so...

there's more to an ///M3 than just power/straight line speed

this.

yes.

coupe/monaro dont like all have high ks or spastic price, you the interior is the equivelant of a vt commo no thanks.

audi's are nothing special my mates TT current model interior is pitiful to my lexus, and dont even start with merc or bmw interior eats both alive.

lol i was wondering where mohsen was with his 2c on ford vs holden, then remembered that I banned him.

only thing he can give opinions on is the bus vs train

yours is Lexus not Toyota...

actually lexus gets shittier specs than toyota. only benefit of buying a lexus is standard leather. No 1JZ, no air suspension, no wagon option etc etc.

senator kinda looks like ass if you ask me. I'd buy a calais and bring in pontiac G8 kit from the US and slam it on 22's.

bogans will all be mad jelly.

you can buy the pontiac front as a factory option when you buy a new holden (I have been told)

I reckon it looks ugly and goes in the same category of chevy badges.

I was sitting at my desk when I remembered a phone call I'd forgotten to make. I found the number and dialled it. A man answered, saying "Hello" I politely said, "This is Fred. Could I please speak with Robert Campbell?" Suddenly a manic voice yelled out in my ear "Get the right f*kin' number!" and the phone was slammed down on me. I couldn't believe that anyone could be so rude. When I tracked down Robert's correct number to call him, I found that I had accidentally transposed the last two digits.

After hanging up with Robert, I decided to call the 'wrong' number again.

When the same guy answered the phone, I yelled "You're a flamin mongrel!" and hung up. I wrote his number down with the word 'flamin mongrel' next to it, and put it in my desk drawer. Every couple of weeks, when I was paying bills or had a really bad day, I'd call him up and yell, "You're a flamin mongrel!". It always cheered me up.

When Caller ID was introduced, I thought my therapeutic "flamin mongrel" calling would have to stop. So, I called his number and said "Hi, this is John Smith from the phone company. I'm calling to see if you're familiar with our Caller ID Program?" He yelled "NO!" and slammed down the phone. I quickly called him back and said, that's because you're a flamin mongrel!"

Then one day I was at Lakeside Shopping Centre, getting ready to pull into a parking spot. Some guy in a gunmetal grey Land Rover cut me off and pulled into the spot I had patiently waited for. I hit the horn and yelled that I'd been waiting for that spot, but the idiot ignored me. I noticed a "For Sale" sign in his back window, so I wrote down his number.

A couple of days later, right after calling the first flamin mongrel (I had his number on speed dial by this stage,) I thought that I'd better call the Land Rover flamin mongrel, too. I said, "Is this the man with the gunmetal grey Land Rover for sale?" "Yes, it is", he said. "Can you tell me where I can see it?" I asked. "Yes, I live at 221 William Street. It's a terraced house, and the car's parked right out in front."

"What's your name?" I asked. "My name is Steve Hansen," he said. "When's a good time to catch you, Steve?" "I'm home most days as I'm currently unemployed." "Listen, Steve, can I tell you something?" "Yes?" "Steve, you're a flamin mongrel!" Then I hung up, and added his number to my speed dial, too. Now, when I had a problem, I had two dream boats to call. Then one day I came up with an idea.

I called flamin mongrel #1. "Hello?" "You're a flamin mongrel!" (But I didn't hang up.) "Are you still there?" he asked. "Yeah," I said. "Stop calling me," he screamed. "Make me," I said. "Who are you?" he asked. "My name is Steve Hansen." "Yeah? Where do you live?" "I live at 221 William Street, a terraced house. There's a gunmetal grey Land Rover parked out the front." He said, "I'm coming over right now, Steve. And you had better start saying your prayers." I said, "Yeah, like I'm really scared, flamin mongrel," and hung up.

Then I called flamin mongrel #2. "Hello?" he said. "Hello, flamin mongrel," I said. He yelled, "If I ever find out who you are..." "You'll do what?" I said. "I'll kick your arse," he exclaimed. I answered, "Well, flamin mongrel, here's your chance. I'm coming over right now."

Then I hung up and immediately called the police, saying that I lived at 221 William Street, and that I was on my way over there to kill my gay lover. Then I called Channel 7 News about the hood war going down on William Street.

I quickly got into my car and headed over to William Street. I got there just in time to watch two dream boats beating the crap out of each other in front of six police cars, an overhead police helicopter and a news crew. Now I feel MUCH better. Take it from me, anger management really works...

thats not a great comparison when your talking the top of the tree for the manufacturer and the 8 is a over priced heap of shit, thats well known.

thats not top of the range, top of the range is the RS6 with a lambo v10 under the bonnet. nuff said

its fair enough if people dislike something, but to say its shit, overpriced etc is just being narrow minded and queer

ever read a review on an audi? always say teh same shit, hence why you see fk all of them around. audis biggest killer is everything is an option. hows this for a "top of the range/flagship car" and options list.

Sports differential: $3000

Sports air suspension: $2200

20-inch alloys with 265/40 tyres: $3000

Adaptive cruise control with stop/go function plus lane and side assist: $9000

Night vision with pedestrian detection: $5400

Double glazing with rear privacy glass: $5500

Sunroof with solar panel: $1100

19-speaker, 1400W Bang and Olufsen audio system: $14,400

neally all of that is standard on rival cars, for $220k give or take i aint adding options.

lol yeh they add cheap leather and charge you twice as much thas exactly all they add. :rolleyes: so many know it alls

lexus is pretty win. They've taken Toyota's quality manufacturing process and pushed it to another level. There's a reason they're the biggest car company in the world.

Always been thinking about moving to Toyota but got it comfy here at Cadbury haha

    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
    • I could see someone trying this to save money on oil changes.
