If you coulod afford the 800,000 US it costs, then I'm sure you can afford the unregistered vehicle fines :D

Errm, what about the fact your car is unregistered, unroadworthy and therefore not insurable??

Don't think you could afford to drive a US$800,000 car without insurance....AND if you could, i think you would have mansions in more than just Australia

Damn it, 3 cars isn't enough!

here's a start:

Daily cruiser... S-Class (including all the variants - AMG, Brabus, etc). i love luxury and space, and this is the ultimate gangster ride.

Next; 1959 Caddy. For driving once a month with the supermodel wife, and getting more attention than any of todays supercars.

extensively modified 9-second z-tune. I love exotics, but if i can only choose 3 cars then one of them has to do an easy 9 second pass. and this is it.

Besides, i'd have my P1 membership to give me access to the italian and german exotics :thumbsup:

umm, I've seen an F40 on the road, number plate on (slimline of course!) driving towards Phillip Island (I assume) on the South Gippy hwy. :worship: SO red !

Has anyone seen the N.Z. replica F40, with a twin-turbo 1UZ ? It's quicker than the genuine article ! ! !

My 3 Car Garage

My Toy. None of this water cooled, traction controlled crap that they make now. Hard to Beat the Gruff note of a Force fed air cooled boxer.

My Daily. AMG CLK DTM. Hitting the town at night, going for a cruise. Nothing like having 500 horses under your hood!

My investment and track car. Screaming twin turbos. No Electronic driving aids. One of the Most Desirable Ferraris ever built.

Yes, but they're still left hand drive. Max Beck I beleive is the owner of that car?? I remember reading a feature years ago saying his young fella drove it to his school formal and through Maccas drive through! lol I just love the F40, even though they're responsible for creating more widows than any other Supercar in history. :(

Dead F40 drivers obviously suck-ass, as drivers that is. (no disrespect to them as people, far from it - they had the good sense to buy an F40!!!!)

Such a shame, further proof that even though somebody may be able to AFFORD to drive a supercar, they don't necessarily DESERVE to drive it ! :D

Greta to talk about owning such flamboyant, ostentatious cars. But i would never want to actually drive one around.

I would have my old 3 cyl 880cc Handivan back for day to day driving. I would have a Bedford Van on gas for those driving holidays and a place to sleep when i too drunk to drive. Also good for kidnaping Pommie tourists. And my one car that woudl be worth more then a steamer would be a neat 68 Camaro, or 58 Vette.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
