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.

Ah - sorry if I misled, both cars are his. (btw, 348, not a Testarossa)

And yeah - over a $k for the shoes - someone needed a spanking! :ermm:

D'oh! Man, I need to go back to car-school.. as well as Engrish school it seams :ermm: Well he is one lucky bastard. Wish I had mates with cool cars like that.

Old black Porshe (to tell you the truth I have no idea what model), plates PORSHA, had driver and passenger Recaros. Mint condition. Spotted it on Mt Dandenong Road in Croydon this evening.

I've seen those plates before, think it may be a 930 or 964 Turbo from memory. Beautiful car

White GT3 on Orrong Road Caulfield at about 10pm last night. Really gave it a squirt too, although he was going in the opposite direction he was probably trying to stick it up the Skyline owner :thumbsup:

Oh and the same ol' DB9 (AMDB9 or something for plates) came out of the Blue Planet car wash near my work as per normal... but I just love that sound, so worth a mention!

corner of Ftg road and burwood hwy silver VE ss commy (flamesuit on),

had a quick chat to the guy after i heard him dosing it turns out he's turbo'd it with a full rebuild etc,

sounded like it had everybit of 400kw atw as he said it did :(

Yellow GT3 on the ring road, plates were JGGT3 or something like that...

old dude driving with earplugs...

LOL... that is just sad. Can't cope with the exhaust noise.

I want to own a Porsche at some stage in my life... just not when I'm half-dead. Might fracture something trying to change gear or going over speed humps.

Around Parliament Stn at 1820, within a few secs and metres of each other (and after seeing the R33 GTR) - Black Bentley Continental GTC, Black Aston Martin ?model (still not good with differentiating AM models - probably DB9??)

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
