  1. HB Anna. Catch you at the bbbq (the extra 'b' is for byob)
  2. aww man- 2:30am race broadcast =[
  3. isn't that the whole point of DIN ratings for power outputs? conditions are standardized for all engines??
  4. The major difference with R35's will be, as they will be sold new by Nissan australia, lots of them will be leased as part of a salary package or for 'business' use, and the depreciation will be written of against tax according to the maximum allowable in the ATO tax tables. This pretty much guarantees the prices will drop fairly rapidly in the first 3-5 years.
  5. you spent $5K on an RB20 head? ouch
  6. i've never even been to Germany
  7. Every company that tests there has their 'gun' driver that sets the fastest lap times for their road cars at the Nurburgring. For Porsche, it's chief test driver and former rally ace Walter Rohrl. There wouldn't really be much to separate racing car drivers that have done 500+ laps of the place, methinks. As for n00bs- even given all day, i reckon most of us would struggle to get into the low 8 minute range given the same car
  8. oi, play fair ref- the 'small block' 7L is still the same 'ol OHV push-rod V8, VR38 is an alloy V6 versus a cast-iron I6 for the RB
  9. $55,000 but the change from normal 3-series coupe to M3 is fairly substantial: every external panel is different (carbon roof, too), before you even start on the mechanical changes
  10. 'R33SKY' at Bella Vista plus a bunch of other 33's that i couldn't get the regos of in all the pouring rain
  11. sorry to hear about that; but how is Plumpton a 'safe' suburb to leave popular performance cars parked outside in?
  12. Ridiculous dream car- McLaren F1 LM Reality car- R35 GT-R

    Gtr V Lf-a

    thing is, the R35 would completely walk away from the F40 on any mountain road you care to mention- even with a 600kg weight disadvantage that's progress is guess
  14. There were 50 ppl keen as to spend around $220,000 on the HRT427 Monaro until they canned the idea
  15. nicer at the back than the original Gallardo, but a touch fussy at the front. don't really rate the wheels, but that's easy enough to change not a chance- it shows a car doing illegal things on public streets (drifting, speeding, crossing un-broken double lines)
  16. money cures everything who would have thought that a 1.5L engine could make 1300hp on 100 octane fuel? (F1 cars)
  17. driving what? i think i saw you...
  18. yes the only thing is that Ferrari spells 'spider' with an 'i' these days...
  19. might ride ma bike if the weather's favourable
  20. don't expect a very large rwkW increase then maybe 15kW maximum (but prolly not even that much)
  21. no change in R32 diffs Nate but the 'A-LSD' 33 GT-R diffs are different to the normal BCNR33 diffs (electro-hydraulic control of side to side torque proportioning). both have 4.11 final drive ratios
  22. power = money how powerful are you willing to spend?
  23. ^ and then it's a huuuge problem, fine wise
  24. what time does the V-tekYo! mobile do around the Nurburgring? thought so...
