Spotted the mother of all dish/offset, on a 911 No less: :D

RUF3.jpg

oh yeah, this cruised (using the word very lightly) past the ETSA depot at St Marys this morning as we were at the gate.........very much straight exhaust as you could pick the distinct sound of turbo spool coming from the exhaust

*drools*

spotted a nice 32 on the southern express way, looked like it had some bronze wheels on, sat nice in the guard.

i was in the cream R31, just bought the f**ker haha

Might have been me, Black 32 GTR coming back from the city.

Just got her back from Boost Worx on the wednesday.

Spotted the mother of all dish/offset, on a 911 No less: :(

Thats a Porsche 993 ... hence the plates. :)

It would normally be called a 911 but renamed 993 from 1998 onwards, I'm sure.

Mate of mine in Belguim has one. Took me for a spin in it :(

ruby, pretty sure they where talkin bout the RUF statement on the plate,

porsche RUF is the equivilant of HSV in holdens world i believe..... yes?

I'm just pointing out its not a 911.

RUF is the tuning/building place for Porsches that do the 996 conversion to unmarked Porsche chassis, then badge them as 993 or 996. My mate in Belguim normally just drives over the border to Pfaffenhausen for his performance bits from them.

The model name '911' is still in use, the 993 on the plate would refer to the chassis code. The current chassis code is 997:

And for on-topic-ness, I saw a tough lookin 32 2 door in Mt Barker today. Was white black bonnet, GTR front bar, some sort of nice wheels (didn't see what though).

Gave the bloke a thumbs up for a decent lookin rig :wub:

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !
