Isn't it funny, if it was one of us or anyone in a Jap import for that matter the media, police, Gov't & everyone else with a soap-box woulda been screaming "Hoon this, Ban that" etc etc

f**ken Hypocrites

Josh, matt, this isnt a thread over which one of ur cocks is 'bigger' (i use the word 'bigger' very losely) its about who was at fault, the car (LOL) or the driver

:laughing-smiley-014:

Nope, I saw your dads car this arvo on my way back from Noosa, he was heading towards Kawana from your house...

He over took a van and I wet my pants... :D

Oh really now. I'll have to inform him of his naughty driving :)

Ferrari's are faster than Porsche's.....F430's do 0-100 in 4.1, 911 GT3's do 0-100 in 4.3..on a circuit a 911 GT3 will probably be faster..but yea, Ferrari's have better power figures...they also weigh a touch more. Theres been mixed reviews but the F430 is commonly rated higher than the new Porsche 911 GT3...big price difference though, at least Porsches are relatively cheap.

I wouldnt call a porsche 911 GT2 cheap at $440,000.

I was going off the most expensive new porsche as per carsales.com which was a 911 997 Turbo which is 335k....still cheap in the luxury car world...in comparison to the most expenseive, lambo's, ferrari's etc...main point is most of Porsche's cars are around the 100-230k mark, whereas most other luxury cars dont even start near that price.

Right right right. :)

We're not talking "super car/extremely rare" sale price's here. Most of the more "common" Ferrari's are around the $300k+ (resale) which that 997 price is or it's an auto... In reality only one or two AMG's only come close in that price range, BMW M series don't even rank in that price range. I duno if I would rank Lambo's with Ferrari and Porsche, the are much more of an Exotic.

If you wana start talking more rare ones, last time I spoke with Gemballa, there "GT700" Cayenne wasn't far off $600k or something, road cars built by them are all Dependant on what spec it is, even the 911 GT1 (road legal version) you'll be lucky to pick up for Enzo money these days.

Older 911's and base newer ones are in the price you mention, dads black 911 was $100k even, but thats had a concourse restoration and it's only a 1990. He had a look at a 993 Twin Turbo when he was in Sydney last month for $210k at a dealership and it was pure shit/daily driven kays.. Get you pay for..

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

No wait wait let me finish

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

ahahahahahahahahahaha ok bs

:thumbsup: How can most people ignore other possible variables of deceleration and jump to the conclusion? What happen to road surface, oil, water, dust, tyres contacts, reaction time at lunch time etc :laughing-smiley-014: good point..

silverbulletR33 maybe he read the signs..." Parking at rear" :domokun:

    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
    • The fact that US/JDM plates actually fit the skyline bumpers properly is a big, big thing for me as they are the correct dimensions. Annoyingly you can't opt for a normal plate (or plate combination) in that size. You have to make up your own one, and at that point you'd still know it wasn't randomly assigned. 
    • Well, really, that's any ECU, because it's not so much the ECU that the tuner connects to, but a laptop that's connected to the ECU. You have to have the tuning software installed locally. The "remote" part is essentially just remote desktop (RDP) or VNC type access. Nevertheless, if you're looking to upgrade, then you're immediately in the Haltech/Link territory, both of which can be done by any number of competent tuners here in Oz. But without a dyno, you'll definitely also need a wideband O2 sensor fitted, and you'll probably be relying on "auto" tuning a bit, where you drive it around under various loads and then apply the corrections that the ECU learns (basically applying the fuel trims that the ECU has to do to correct the mixtures). Tuning the timing is a little harder. It can be difficult to trust the old OEM knock sensors on RBs, so it is definitely best to have someone who knows what they're listening for, with knock ears (a piezo microphone connected to the engine, and and little amp and headphones so the listener can hear the angry men with hammers who live in the engine). That is more difficult to do remotely, and I suspect the only sane way is to be quite conservative on timing. But that's OK. You're probably waaaaay better off with conservative timing where you are. What is the fuel situation? 98RON available? Or low grade jungle juice?
    • I see your point, I didn't think too deep into it, was purely focused on the price. There's no bad blood between myself and GSM, they acknowledged the price was cheaper else where and at the time couldn't match it.
