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:

    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
    • It's TWO steering wheels actually. 😛 one for each hand They are wheels, and they steer!
