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.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
