Ah, it's only really the centre console - from the description I thought he meant the whole dash.

A pic from a couple years ago - haven't taken many other of the dash, got some vid of trying to figger out how to use the A/C though. :)

i am aware of that, usually wheels with yellow strips are perfectly round. if you look at the 430 wheel it is very clear where the wheel needs to be for the car to go straight. its just some funny supercar wank... like starter buttons.

Bah - Start buttons are cool

BTW - Ryan you would have heard the rattling exhaust yesterday... the whole bracket had snapped. Good old Fiat build quality.

Some nice cars at Ferrari today too - about 5x Gran Turismos, a 599, a couple of Scags, a 550 Superamerica and yet another F40. Cool!

yeah, i still think they are cool, but they are still wank :blink: especially in the rs4 with the launch sequence.

and yeah, heard the rattles, it must be a bridging thing between all the fezzas. its not real unless it rattles.

Also at Ferrari are some lovely rare machines in Rosso Corsa...

550 Superamerica, 599 and the best of all... F40!

* plus our Melbourne Ferrari's having a drink at Shell. Lots of noise as we went up Punt Rd :huh:

There are quite a few Gran Turismos undergoing pre-delivery at the moment.

They are simply stunning!

They're awesome looking cars. I saw one on the road when I was in Italy, I think I nearly snapped my neck trying to get a glimpse of it!

Spotted this today while working a cilents house....

It's a 1971-2 Aston Martin DBS V8

Details of it are here...

http://www.astonmartins.com/v8/dbsv8.htm

This car was in mint condition, the pics don't do it justice....and it sounded like the world was ending when it (eventually) started. The owner told me he was the 3rd owner and all the miles on it were original!!

The poor thing hasn't been started for over 2 months, so there was a little smoke, but geez it sounded so nice.... and it just looked so sexy. He also told me he dosen't drive it much, as he only get about 10 miles to the gallon :D I had to decline a drive due to work :x :cry: :cry:

    • Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys   
    • perfect, no rush to address the leaking bush then, it's not doing much/anything
    • I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
    • lol already been put in temporarily 3 years ago
    • Makes sense. For actuators, if the pressure itself isn't adjustable, that would mean I'd need to think about 2 different actuators with 2 different pressures on paper in order for them to work at the same time if the turbos behave differently. So measure the difference in psi needed to move both, and then get an actuator to match that difference. Assuming I cant get rid of it by adjusting the arms.  You're exactly right, never happens in gear 1 or 2. I can occasionally get it in gear 3 if going uphill but its very small. Only ever in 4 and 5. Seems kind of backwards that one of the points of VCAM is faster spool but if it introduces shuffle then it actually slows spool down.
