this was at a Holden dealership.

that was in artarmon wasn't it Andrew?

its not actually a Holden dealership, its some sort of supercar dealership in the same building, I've also seen some lotuses and a TVR in there....

Its certainly no supercar, but I spotted a 2008 model HSV Grange yesterday...

The most interesting thing about it was the number plates: LS7 HSV :rolleyes:

LS7 is the 7.0L V8 from the Z06 isnt it!? Is this guy lying or is this a test mule maybe?

Phwoaah.. I didnt know they had the CCR in oz yet!

Good spot (even if by proxy! :))

ok sweet thanx 4 dat.. plus they didnt even have one at the motor show so i found it quite strange

Yeah I wasnt surprised that the Veyron wasnt there... 99% of all cars displayed are there for one reason - to be sold! There is no reason to go to the expense to display a Veyron if there is no plan to sell the car in australia (unfortunately for us! :w00t:).

The Sydney "International" Motor Show isnt really a hugely important show in the scheme of things anyway. The Lamborghini Reventon was going to be displayed this year, but they decided not to bring it here JUST IN CASE something went wrong with shipping and they werent able to get the car back in time for the Tokyo Motor Show... it shows how important we are! :D

Yeah, there was a guy on the news a while ago that owned one... and some shit happen with a bank, and the bank wanted to take it off him, so he hid it in some shed somewhere under some shit :D

I'm fairly sure these are unregisterable...

Spotted a whole bunch of Aston Martins, Porsches and various other luxo-mobiles just then, as I went with my old man to Trivett to pick up a car. All of Trivett's service centres are grouped together in Parra/Rosehill. Didn't see Samuel (WTF33R)'s car tho...

Also saw an AMG SLK about 10 minutes later - not sure if it was an SLK55 or 63 or what, but it sounded HOT!!!

    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
    • the top black section is bonded to the silver section with some form of rubber. I assume to isolated NVH from the box
