  1. Yes, I looked at an R34 in Ballarat, airbags hanging out of the dash and steering wheel... not good.
  2. Well unless tentacle hentai has lied to me that would be a reasonable assumption!
  3. Cause he is one of those BOV's do nothing people. Let's not forget that Audi in his sig probably only used its turbo for a few hundred kilometers between replacements.
  4. V8 supercars have over 600hp and weigh 1350kg... Imagine the lag of that turbo on a small engine, it would not be great at corner exits even if you kept the engine spinning hard. Also they are fully developed racing cars which is worth a lot... But it would be an interesting matchup anyway, oh well, we will never get an answer.
  5. In the director's commentary for the FLCL anime series he says that it was traditional to write on vehicles from the front to the back. Mirroring is pretty much the only way to do that with Roman letters. I am sure some kind of symmetry Feng Shui type deal is the reason for that.
  6. Oh yeah, no question about that... The 3S-GTE GT-500 car would destroy a V8 Supercar... But this car isn't one of them. It has more power and less weight than a V8 supercar but I think the V8 would still nail it, just my opinion
  7. No it wasn't and no it won't
  8. Dear Rezz, How did you learn Japanese and how long did it take before people stopped looking at you like there was something on your nose whenever you tried to say something?
  9. I think it will be called the HR35 like the R32 GT-R, well according to Redbook --> http://www.redbook.com.au/vehiclesearch/pr...sp?key=NISS91ER p.s. I tried to tell them, but they said the name HR32 was commonly used in the industry so they wouldn't change it.
  10. Well until my car is pushed along by the flywheel directly to the ground I maintain that rwkW is not only the most easily measureable power, but also the most relevant as it is the power available to move your car along the road. My favorite is people quoting the power to weight ratio of a motorcycle using the dry weight versus the flywheel power. It makes no sense at all.
  11. Well I was trying to make a joke, but for... no wait... forget it.
  12. Lindsay Fox is an SAU member? Cool I am going to the museum on 29th January to see the car! Can't wait...
  13. For the money i'd buy a used 911 Turbo and mod it... *sorry couldn't resist finally having the chance to make that retarded comment that people love to make when someone posts a pic of an expensive car*
  14. Has it been on a dyno at all... just adjusting the fuel pressure regulator properly can get it running half decently.
  15. The rock in those rockmelons is actually crack cocaine... Awesome pics... Thanks for sharing!
  16. An easy way to sort that is to go to the IGN/INJ setting and just back off the ignition a couple of degrees. I found throwing in some more fuel helped too... Just have to remember to do it again if you switch off the car...
  17. I'll be down there again! Yay me...
  18. Entry forms online now: Privateer Entry Form fill it in and post or fax to Mallala Motorsport Park. Drift Nationals Schedule -- Judging criteria!
  19. I remember my first ride in a GTR (about 1997)... during the test drive the dealer demonstrated the point in the rev range where the second turbo kicked in.
  20. Here is some homework for you to read http://www.dptmex.com/english/dyno.htm Have a read about Tractive effort.
  21. Oh, you were being serious...
  22. No, you don't... *EDIT: Sorry, just saw smilie!
  23. What's the retail on one of those...
