Yeah, i couldnt believe my luck to see the F1 testing. We also saw the new F430 Scuderia doing hot laps around the test track at dusk; glowing brakes and all. They were testing tyres.

The town is amazing; its full on Ferarri. You can see trucks with loads of alloy engine castings coming from the foundry and everything. Its all pretty exxy though. I bought a Ferarri mug for A$36!

My dad told me that 2 weeks ago around the corner from eastern creek raceways he saw a Porsche Cayenne with a car trailor towing a 360 or F430 race car(he wasn't sure which model it was)

Murci in 'high-volume intake' mode in North Synneh- Which either means he was just doing 120+km/h, or is posing

Aren't you miss-informed.

The wings only stay up until 40kmph. Or unless really hot then they will stay open at speed. But Generally they are shut.

That is my brothers Lambo. Infact it's his 2nd one murchie!! He is far from a poser. Drives it like a Lambo should be driven.

Havent had a look in here recently. Since my last post in this thread I left the glamourous job at "Hollywood Motors" (as the other departments called our shop) to work in fleet management.

Jana Pitman has a Porsche? - I didnt know that athletics paid so well.

I'd say its the endorsements that paid for it.

Spotted yellow lambo "LQQK" at Miranda about an hour ago

Yellow diablo Steveo? He owns an auto trimming shop in the Moorebank/Milperra area, we sublet all our trim work to him when I worked at Aston Martin/Porsche.

Sam you probably have serviced my boss's AM DB7 Vantage, it's a Slate blue-grey auto... :D

Thats the Aston Martin Press car, the one driven by Warren Brown in the Top Gear Australia episode with the 997 Turbo and the Superleggera. Mmmmmm Morning Frost White (factory white with blue pearl)

Spotted an orange Lambo Gallardo this afternoon around 4.30pm, on the railway overpass bridge in Toongabbie, of all places.

Funny that...I spotted an orange Lambo on the M4/Woodville Rd Granville at 12:40-12:45pm :P

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
