That's the one where the bumper half fell off it when he left the pits last year if I recall correctly? Must admit I smiled at the pic, but not laughed.

How were the '35s being driven Kev? Hard or conservatively?

i seen an r8 every couple of days now.. yet i still get excited.

wouldnt happen to be that guy whos always driving it in a suit on toorak road/burwood hwy?? cause i see the same one alot

Genuine Fastback Eleanor super snake (the 700hp version) like from "Gone in 60 seconds" sounded like the world was ending as it came down punt road, with the whine of the charger. Followed by a black Countach, i think its the replica that everyone keeps seeing around.

Canary yellow Lotus Esprit V8 parked on Russel St around 1330 today. Black plates were [XQUSIT] or something similar. The paint job was perfect and literally glimmering.

Almost every 2nd guy who walked passed was checking it out or taking photos of it. Nice to see a sexy, English non-Aston car getting that attention. Owner obviously spends a lot of care and attention.

Hehe - it's actually Norfolk Mustard, and it's an S4s not a V8 - THE best version. It was me and a mate out and about today while I was in Melb, we were actually over at Louis Vuitton across the road - he's in the doghouse with the lady so he had to buy her an expensive pair of shoes :P

And btw yes - this Esprit gets driven like it's stolen, and is a concours winning car, no better caretaker for it.

The car should have a decent photoshoot soon, until then: http://aussieexotics.com/forum/ferrari/the...g20709#msg20709

Within 24hrs

On my way home;

Yellow Galliardo (again)

Ferrari Modena (red - duh!)

Lamborghini Diablo (black)

At shops near my work (Mt Eliza);

Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead (THAT has a PRESENCE!)

3x Porsche Cayenne Turbo's (they are everywhere around here)

2x Aston Martin DB9 (one black, one "brittish racing" green)

Just ridiculous.

spotted a lamborghini gallardo superlagga or however you spell it on melton hwy yesterday. Pulled up next to him at the lights and my mate in the passenger seat said to the driver give it a rev.. He replied "its not a race car".. made my day

Wow... you're one lucky bastard :) . Pure car porn.

Sorry for mis-identifying your ride on so many counts lol. Does your mate drive the Testa in the photo? Geez... LV shoes. Had to have done something pretty bad.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
