Autoshow At The Dome.

[noise]

Who went?

I thought it was much better then that crappy auto saloon.

Got to see that xspeed gtr and a 33 gtr get dyn'd aswell.

yeeeeee

[skylineracer1]

I was going to go but no one wanted to go with me as they thought it was to V8'ish, So ill just wait for PAS

were the imports serverly out numberd by V8s?

[noise]

yeah mate there were shitloads of v8's and hardly any imports.

there was a 1500hp v8.. pretty nutz in anyones books.

[IMACUL8]

Show was really good i thought.

Not many GTR's, turbo 4 and 6's -alot of V8 and the sort - but the cars that were there either were historic and in fantastic condition or well engineered.

Pissed all over Autosalon and other ricer shows.

The crap ricers were kept to a absolute minimum....

I enjoyed it.

I went , and thought it was ok for the $15, but thought that it was a bit boring, other than checking out lots of cars there wasn't much else happening. The dyno comp at the Dome is in a much better position than at the Convention Center, and some huge power figures. I hope the show continues to grow, and incorporates more Import cars.

I went on Sunday. Got there just before the C-Red GTR went on the dyno (lucky). Wasnt bad for $15 even though it was a holden and ford fest mostly. Quality of most cars wasnt to bad though. Did anyone else think that the 1500hp ute looked like it stuffed its motor? there was smoke pissing out of the engine bay

[R34]

Yeah it was OK

Couple of horrid (IMHO) Imports which had so much metalflake in the paint looked like they'd been attacked by a gang of Fairys. (Magical type not tradesmen)

An LS1 powered 33 with lower dyno HP than other GTS's was interesting.

Best fun was counting the Mullets

[JH32]

Wasn't it the Holden Vs Ford show?

Hence the number of V8s .....

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Yeah, the AME show was previously the Ford vs. Holden show. Was nice to see how they put on there shows, but other than the price being good, I couldn't see anything they do theat we don't.

I agree that a couple of the imports did look shit, but C-red's and Xspeed displays were nice

[MacGuyver]

I thought 15 simoleans for entry was pretty good, got some pics of the few imports that were there. My brothers and I actually saw more imports in the carparks than there were in the show, including a bayside blue R34 GTR and several R32 GTR's and Supras. That LS1 R33 was freaky, but the twin exhaust was sweet! I was a little dissapointed at the absence of any Supras, but I was a fan of the Dodge RT/10 on display. But yeah it was a mullet and Ford/Holden fest, and waaaay too many chrome rims for my liking.
