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've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
