  1. Writeoff, congrats on the sale, I noticed that your for sale bit in you sig had gone. thats a sad site, its (was) a very nice car there David
  2. At the moment I will be there, however I am in the middle of making plans to move to Melbourne (and yes Andrew i know i have been saying that since the 500 )
  3. it depends really, some things they will check in the Scrutineering garage (most parts weight ect) and other parts are continually checked over the weekend in the teams pits. but then again I have only spent time with the guys at the Clipsal and sandown over the years
  4. thats cool mate i can understand, i'm flat out with my afterhours work (part of wanting to know the date) i was never any good at starcraft lol there aren't too many RTS that will have this many players in multiplayer
  5. The TRD products are made by Prodrive. They are planning a TRD version of all toyota cars sold here. The Hilux will be 235Kw's and from memory it will have the same supercharged engine as the Aurion. I doubt it will be even close to $70 000, I would have said $45,000 - $60,000 max. Corolla92 i heard it will be running the 3.5L NA V6 not a 2L 4cylinder, but that was through a local toyota dealer here in SA so knowing Salesmen he is more than likely spinning a huge amount of BS
  6. I'm just looking for an alternate back up location after all having a back up on my pc its useless if my house burns down any idea of the date for this Grand event?
  7. looks good andrew like the bronze finish. Be great once its lowered
  8. thats the 2L rally car not a street car though
  9. ok i haven't got that one, i have TopGear Back in the Fast Lane Clarkson shoot-out Clarkson Hot Metal TopGear Revved up Top Gear Winter Olympics I'll have to figure out what i need to rip these off now
  10. car looks good out on track, thats a fair bit of damage on the disc there, should go carbon ceramic my mate swears by them in his 430 lol must have been making some huge temps in there
  11. yeah thats the car i have got ingame so far (sorry didn't explain that well)
  12. I can model and put cars in GTR2 and Rfactor I worked on these http://www.rfactorcentral.com/detail.cfm?I...rdo%20Challenge i started the model before our "head" modeler made the final product i had made a 33GTR JGTC to go ingame but due to commercial work i stopped
  13. I have: Stargate SG1 season 10 (the final series) Stargate Atlantis season 3 Battlestar Gallactica season 3 (missing a few episodes) may need to get the missing ones off you David i also have 5 Top Gear DVD's i can rip onto my HD if anyone is interested cool series 6 of family guy and season 3 of American dad We used to hire the salvation Army Hall at Aberfoyle park and throw 40 - 50 people lans in there back in ye old days, every now and then will still have one with my mates when we run out of PS3 and Xbox 360 games to play
  14. Heard a few whispers around the watercooler today that Toyota will be releasing a TRD version of the Corolla. Aimed at teh Mazda3 MPS, Focus XR5 ect it will be using a Aurion 200Kw V6 driving the front wheels! Having driven both the XR4 and XR5 i have to say i would be a bit weary of a FWD car with that much power and weight over the front wheels. Although i doubt Prodrive will release a car that isn't up to their quality. Although looking at FPV's thats not that high... LOL my sources are pretty reliable, so we will have t wait and see if this is true look out for TRD(Australia) versions of all Toyota Products
  15. i started a model of my car a little while ago for a sig but run out of time to get it finished, hopefully i will have some spare time to get it done
  16. yeah Adelaide hasn't had a big cruise for a while last one was Feb 06, had around 30 cars cruise down the coast (some had left before we were able to get photos of everyones together)
  17. If anyone is interested in Star Gate i have all the episodes that haven't been shown here but thats about as far as i go for movies TV ect, can hook some people up with a few racing sims if they are keen
  18. unfortunately the majority of work i am doing is all very secret (had to sign 3-4 Non Disclosure Agreements) so here are a few i have done for myself (so the quality is down on my commercial work)
  19. wooohoooo finally all my nights sitting in front of my PC is starting to pay off. I'm a "silent" partner in a UK media company, We specialize in web design, 3d modeling, graphics and advertising. I mainly do all the 3dmodeling for the company, and am not named on the website (mainly due to the fact i work for a rival company as well ). The majority (well all) of our customers are involved in Motorsport over in Europe. We have started to sponsor the Roll Centre Le Mans Prototype (rear of the car next to the love heart logo) and the Moore Racing Dodge Viper from the British GT series. We are also working on a small "addon" for GTR2 of the British GT series with full co operation from all the BGT teams and access to all the cars on race week ends. Pitty I can't afford to go over there
  20. looks great, I hadn't heard of it until now
  21. don't worry David I'm usually an easy target as i usually only play racing sims if anyone wants a race i'd be more than keep for that
  22. nice starts checking bank balance
  23. Millers was from the shannons nationals the weekend before, Wayne Hennig's GT2R was crashed at the Winton AMRS round (Wayne drove the Cooper 993 GT2) Defiantly sounds like you need to upgrade or change the brakes. A few years back i had a bit to do with a GTP team running a subaru. In the 2hr race at the clipsal they ran out of brakes into the hairpin and ended up using the handbrake to get back to the pits. The discs were warped and cracked. any idea on what you'll be upgrading to?
  24. Andrew i finally got around to get a quote for the dent i got when out at your place. work at staff rates want to charge me $670!!!!!!!!! what a joke for the size of the dent it has bent the fuel door hinges so it doesn't fully close anymore. The damages it right in the part where you can't get into from the back to push it out
  25. yeah
