f430 on lygon st yest (surprise surprise)

355 spider at docklands yest

360 modena at century city today

damn punks and their flashy red cars - not as flashy as my yellow 1.3 ltr jazz though :laugh:

Haha I reckon Lygon St after the Grand Prix each year is the best place to go. I never knew so many Ferraris even existed in Melbourne. It's great, eating pizza and ogling Fezzas, walking down Lygon eating Il Dolce Freddo ice-cream (mmmm) and ogling more Fezzas.

Ada///M.

You sure there isn't a Porsche dealership somewhere and they were all test driving? :laugh:

You should pop in here and say hi one day Adam.

Lots-o-Porsches all the time.

Today... 997 GT3, 996 GT3 CS, 996 TT, road-registered 996 Cup Car

I will certainly have to James.

I just fear that I will have a meltdown if I come in, some seriously nice weapons of choice there.

Speak to you soon mate.

Ada///M.

Nah - that's a 57.

And yeah, hideous.

If you're dropping over $800k on a land-yacht, why in hell would you look past a Phantom?

Especially since when you roll up at the bowls club in a Maybach, people just think your Merc has been badged.

Ah - the Evade!

Snowy and I had a good chat with the guy at the motorshow. How did it run? Back in March he'd never actually driven it in anger (which seems silly for a development car). I hope he has it a bit more sorted now.

Evade it is.

He wasn't driving it too hard. He didn't seem full of confidence, as it was his first time out and it's probably like riding an explosion.

Ran it all day without any issues. I guess if you crash it, it's not like you can buy another one on the Monday.

I asked him what a replacement would roughly cost. He reckons it's about $80k worth.

James, you should challenge him to a battle with your Atom!! Just grab the keys. No one would even know. :D

... For the record, his wife also has one. Somebody wanted just a shell built for an expo, but he said he'd end up with an un-driveable shell, so someone else threw him some running gear. it's not as angry as the one in the pics tho.

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
    • Summernats cruiser?
    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
