Here's a few pretty little automobiles I saw during my travels in the Côte d'Azur during my honeymoon.

There was so much money around, you could smell it! I was soooo in my element :mellow:

1. Porsche Carrera GT with Rolls Royce Phantom parked behind.

2. Maserati MC12.

3. Mercedes McLaren SLR. Oooooo I sooooo want one.

4. Carpark outside Monte Carlo Casino

5. Ford GT

6. 2009 Ferrari 599 GTB Mansory Stallone. 1 of not many. Supercharged 6.0L V12 with LOTS of carbon fiber and go fast bits.

7. Aston Martin DBS. Sounds so secksy.

Red HSV R8 Tourer with black plates [R8TOUR] trailing me off Dynon Rd. Wanted to race me at the lights next to BP Whitehall. I think this is the car that some motor mag used to do the R8 tourer review. Absolutely love that car - if only it came with as much cargo space as a Stagea....

HSV W427 at Monash Uni on Wednesday - those thing look so much meaner on the road than they did at the motor show!

I'm pretty sure I saw a silver Walkinshaw supercharged HSV Clubbie R8 last week in the city (or a good imitation). Had the bonnet scoops and what sounded like a supercharger whine.

For those who don't know what this is, google it. It blows the W427 out of the water, is done by reputable HSV-affiliated WP, and costs <100k. The only reason you would buy a W427 over this is as a collector's item, but seriously, I don't think it's worth 50k more (or will ever be in the future).

My next family car will be an R8 tourer with the WP treatment :down: Goodbye RS6!

Warning: This car might be better than sex

Saw this walking home from uni (Monash Caulfield) dont know the name of the road I walk everyday but it's straight under the bridge from the roundabout in the uni....things i would do just to sit in it

I don't know if it's real but if it's not the guy really pulled out all the stops to make a replica Shelby GT500 Super Snake IT'S HOT!

Hi there. This Mustang actually belongs to me and my father. Yes, it is a real Shelby SuperSnake and is currently the only one in Australia to be driven regularly. Good job on spotting it! Someone has finally posted pics of it been seen in public on the net :P

Is there any polite way to remind someone just what agricultural crap Aussie built cars are? And how inappropriate they are to mention in a Supercar thread?

Despite what the Mythbusters might think, you can't polish a turd.

My link to my photos from the Supercar Club QR Trackday. Enjoy. http://s13.photobucket.com/albums/a300/GTR...?albumview=grid

and how inappropriate they are to mention in a Supercar thread?

Geoff, i'm pretty sure the mandate for the thread is "things you don't see every day" and when they only sold less than 200 (i think) to see one actually being driven is quite a surprise. I'd have expected the majority to go into mothballs once bought.

An for a piece of "agricultural crap" the inside of a new Calais V is quite a nice tractor to be in.

seen this on Hallam-Pound Road intersection just before ;) wanted one of those so bad for a first car, seeing it today makes me want on even more now

Sorry, my knowledge of classic cars = fail. What exactly is it? A mustang of some sort, yeah?

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
