Spotted these 2 on Saturday...

David Coulthard F1 McLaren on a trailer on Clarendon St

and a red Ford GT out the front of The Clarendon...

I saw that Ford GT as well.

I think the owner was at one of the table outside of the cafe. I walked past the car twice about 30min appart and that guy was still there.

this one time in the city, leaving a club, i looked thru the carpark, and saw a shitload of VERY expensive cars behind a security gate... i should start posting in this thread, i live in toorak, 2doors up is a lambo, an SL55 amg frequents accross the road, porches/audi's(the nice ones)/bmw's(the M ones or the big limo ones) everywhere, AMG's seem to be getting more popular, ferrari 4down accross the road etc

then all the shitters in my apartment block :blink:

and an M3 CSL down the road(my favorite)

and the odd aston too, seen as many on tow trucks as on the road!

apartment = cheaper rent than a house furthur out :rant:

love the local cars, but so sick of the shithead drivers in the big luxo "4wd"'s

saw a nice gunmetal ferrari(no idea what it was, but was big, new, and a ferrari) this morning dropping the mrs at work.

Sounds familiar.

I work in Mount Eliza, like a mini Toorak.

The favoured vehicles around here are Porsche, Benz & BMW. Lots of ML's, X5's and Cayenne's.

Just saw a $Mil driving down the road in the form of a Rolls Phantom Drophead. Black with White leather. Top down. Certainly owns the street for looks.

Had an AMG ML63 roar up beside me this morning & drop the kids off.

Aston DB9 in "British Green"... again dropping the kid off *sigh*

Again, sounds too familiar.

The reason they can't drive properly is because the world owes them and everyone bends to their will and focus' on them.

You didn't know this? :)

Ignorant pr*cks.

I just spotted the Redback Spyder tonight on Swanston Street.

Here's the result of what some others thought about it...

One of the funniest things I've seen in many years!

Saw the Redback Spyder on Beyond Tomorrow before. Wonder if anyone actually bought one. I think the owner owns the two in existence?

Props to the builder, but to be honest 350k is a bit steep for an LS1 in a carbon chassis. I think the Joss Supercar looks so much better and is faster, for around the same money. It's also built by an aussie in his "garage". Some of you may remember it from previous motor shows.

Great job spotting the Redback though. The only super-spot that can top that I guess is of one-of-a-kind car. eg., if the sole Maybach Excelero ever comes here . Not sure what other one-of-a-kind road cars there are :cheers:

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
