i can tell you the GT drivers had the same comments about the crowds in Adelaide and can't wait to get to the more civilized/cultured crowds in Melbourne at the GP. The fact that they were all walking past ignoring the 400K+ cars to look at the utes.

looks like it was the panel work burning, probably set fire to itself whilst backfiring :laugh:

better not laugh to much in the middle of moving there. And i better stop making comments about people like Mr Smith you never know who knows who :(

the Gallardo GT3's exhaust system is a work of art, i'll try and get photo's next weekend at sandown

2 Weeks ago on sunday spotted on lygon street parked a yellow murcie with qld plates [toro] fkn hot, and a gunmetal one with standard vic plates next to each other not to mention the not to shabby red 360 spider between them. Damn I love Murcie's , only seen 1 lp640 on the road must be super rare.

I spotted Peter from P1 Sydney last night on the telly. They had a segment on P1 at the track showing the cars at QR and the opening party for the Qld office.

Must have missed my invites in the mail......... :D

Ryan - not sure who was driving, but I'd bet my pink shirt it's the guy in one of the photos wearing jeans with his head in his hands.

Ian, Richard and I discussed it this morning - we all agree it doesn't really matter who was behind the wheel, so long as it wasn't us.

Geoff - yeah, Doug called me about that. Might have to try and score some footage. Was it a good piece?

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
