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.

    • Update all   thanks to the workshop manual, it lead me back to checking fuses as mentioned central locking and door open lights worked when acc was switched on. diagram attached shows two points of power 1. ACC and 2.  Batt with the later being fused (#28) I did check the fuses using a multimeter but I must have stuffed that up also. Went back and checked the batt fuse in interior fuse box and you wouldn’t believe it… a blown fuse. replaced fuse and everything is now working as it should including the climate control   thank you all with your positive insight and knowledge.    
    • Where is the warning "That this thread is super old"   I just went into a 5 year old thread, went to do a reply, and couldn't see anywhere obvious a warning of it being super old
    • Duncan is correct. Pitwork (and Toyota's own cheap brand "Drive Joy") were primarily created as brands to sell other manufacturers car parts. It would be weird if Nissan sold parts for Toyota vehicles with a Nissan logo on it, so they created Pitwork to sell parts for other brans Toyota, Honda etc. They are not the same as Nissan genuine parts, although they *do* meet Nissan's standards for replacement parts. They aren't supposed to be a substitute for genuine parts, but a cheaper alternative that is better than Ebay fake parts from you-know-where.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, much easier to work with it now it's free!  
    • I _think_ that one has a christmas tree or some other retainer spike into a hole in that panel under it. Come in under it with thin scredrivers and just pry it gently up. If you rip the ears off the retainer pin....so what? Just stick it back down after with a bit of race tape and carry on with life.
