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:

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
