thanks for the offer bass, we have someone there already... by the way your mates initials aren't A.K ???

Edit: Bass, get your mate to hook you up with one of those drives days (if he hasn't already) out coldstream way.. trust me you'll have an absolute ball :burnout:

And he knows that if I get behind the wheel of a Porsche that all hell would break loose, so I haven't had the offer yet.

Besides, I can't afford to sign on that line that says "You break, You Pay"

Wanna sponser me??

mesh if you really want an R34 you can have mine. Pristine condition. Never raced. :P

Anyways....

I have to say of all the cars spoken about the ones I give the most credence to is the Porsche GT3. I was never that much of a Porsche fan cause I'd taken both a Boxster S and a Carrera 4 for a spin and thought they were nothing special. I would never consider buying one of these cars.

Then this year I did the Dutton Rally. There was a GT2 and some 996 turbo's that kicked some ass in places - but the GT3's were just the most alround amazing packages considering they are like that straight out of the box.

It's now number 1 on my list of desired cars because you could have a lot of fun with one - not just keep it in the garage.

I dunno about that Snowman....

I've been in a GT2 and GT3 and I reckon that GT2 blitzes the GT3.

But that was from a grunt point of view only.

There's something about a G-Force induced grin that I just can't go by....

Yeah as I said take them both around phillip island or say over an 800m sprint and the GT2 would just blow you away.

But take them both for a run through the Reefton Spur or up The Great Alpine Road and see who wins. My point was that under certain circumstances the GT2 would just kill all but the GT3 would be awesome for everything.

snowwy & bass, the GT2 is twice as much as a GT3? right? Regardless, whilst you two sit there biyatching over the GT2 & GT3, I'll be pondering your a$$'s with a GT.. *cough* carrera GT That is.

EDIT: That's if money is no object ofcourse, and we are just talking about a wishlist.

Yeah but you've got to remember, the CSL comes standard with Semi Comp Rubber.

The GT3 does not. They were testing standard cars against each other.

Slap some Semi Comps on the GT3 and watch it drive off.

im just not really a porsche fan i guess.

i see the things everyday because the service centre at para fill all the cars up with fuel at my servo

i dont mind some of the turbos but thats about it and the cayenne is ok too.

Saw a black SL600 convertable with 19inch chrome deep dish rims on my lunch break in hawthorn while i was out having a perve at all the woman in the nice weather today. The guy driving it looked early to mid 30's. If thats an old mans car, i want to be an old man now!!!

    • I agree on doing some better than factory pistons, rods, and oil pump. For anyone using the vehicle on the road, I don't get why everyone wants big cams. The stock cam profile, with some more lift would be mint for road usage. Everyone going big cams and then wondering why it isn't as responsive in traffic, when they've shifted the torque curve upwards an additional 1000RPM. Make torque, at lower RPM. Sure it's not as cool as claiming "500KW" and revving it to 8,0000RPM, but that same torque 2,000RPM earlier... Then you don't need the extremely high end pistons and rods, and blah blah blah.
    • Personal experience. Those f**kers burn. And are actually a PITA to put out. Next time I walk down the back, I'll snap a photo of what the inside of the bonnet looks like when that thing ignites. PS, powder fire extinguishers are useless on that stuff too as it's fibrous and when it ignites, it starts to pull apart. And you end up just blowing powder through a sieve effectively.   Like the big thing is, if it's fire resistant, it's job is to stop what burning? The METAL above it? It's just to try keep heat off the bonnet paint work.
    • Oh man, sorry, $60.00000000... 😛
    • That's more or less what he meant. What it really means is that you do not have to go full crazy on the build. Don't need the best oil pump, expensive rods & pistons, big cams, etc. You can upgrade whatever you want instead of using stock level items, but you don't have to. Having said that - any time an RB is opened up, if anything is getting replaced, I think the opportunity should be taken to do all the sensible upgrades. Pistons, rods, pump, etc.
    • February update 🙂 We managed to get the very last 1/18th "Extra Scale" cars stock available from bookstores in Kyoto. These are actually the last ones and will not be restocked again! Hachette Collections Japan have not decided on a release date for these or other models in the series, so for the time being these are all there are available new.  These are showing up on Yahoo auctions at inflated prices already (especially the Celica and NSX) so get yours now at a very reasonable price before they disappear!
