Yeah I caught the very end of this last night. I hate that too... I finally find something I wanna watch (after flicking endlessly for 29 mins) and it finishes about 1 min after I start watching it! :nyaanyaa:

lol that can be helpful sometimes too ..

spotted some car show on foxtel tonight when i was on a smoko at work...

7.30pm American Hot Rod Make-A-Wish Car 1

Reality. PREMIERE Boyd and the guys build a car for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. A 17-year-old boy with leukaemia has his dreams come true when he helps the crew design the hot rod. (PG)

8.30pm Overhaulin' Beverly Hills Camaro

What the hell?? Boyd Coddington sucks! everythings so rushed, 2 days to prep and paint a car!!

He fires anyone for looking at him wrong and he's got no one to work for him.

Chip Foose all the way!

Heres the R32 GTR they did, doesn't look too bad for an American effort, nice rims, just needs to lose the decals.

For some reason the first thing i noticed is it didn't have the front diffuser lip. I reckon all 32 GTR's should have that. Don't even ask why i'm picky about that but for some reason they add a touch of more toughness about them then IMO.

chip foose is good but he builds for a different level.

boyd coddington is an excellent builder of rods, there is no denying that.

although because he is now so well known and publicised for building quality rods the demand for his work is now much greater, and tell me honestly, would you not build them quicker for the amount of money he makes?

The XS Engineering R32 Skyline GTR was built from the ground up to serve as an on-going showcase for our tuning abilities. This vehicle is a prime example of our innovation, technical expertise, and workmanship. Originally created during the Street Tuner television series, this R32 has been and will continue to be refined on a day to day basis. Recently, we have used it to claim both the AWD and Overall Championships at the Modified Magazine/Redline Time Attack in Fontana, California.

Horsepower: 851.0 whp @ 2.0kg/cm^2 (28.4psi) of boost

and before it all took shape

also. no doubt all those decals on that car are there because most of the parts they would have used were probably supplied by sponsors with the agreement their company name is to be displayed to MILLTIONS OF VIEWERS on national tv.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
