there is something about 4 turbos & 16 cylinders :)

Just strap 4x Evos together. Cheaper and more powerful.

Plus it's 16-wheel drive. No cheese eating surrender monkey can do that with a VW :)

I think one of the problems is Ni that the P1 cars often end up racking up 50,000km's in 6 months and they are usually HARD km's - so I guess many of these classics just aren't up to that kind of abuse. They probably need something new they can buy and belt around for a few months and then flog off (hence the high car turn over).

Snowy gets 10 out of 10.

Being new (or near new), all our cars are covered by warranty and 24hr roadside assist. Something we NEED to have for 'just in case'.

Some of the other clubs around the world run both classic classics and modern classics - but it's not something we will do any time soon.

That said - Mustang wise, we can look at the new GT-500 Shelbys

Sam - we asked members if they wanted a 599 or LP640, and they chose the Ferrari.

That's not to say we wont get one though - just not right now.

They chose the 599 over the LP640...oh noes....although I guess the average age of most of the members answers the big why question :(

yes of course...

New GT500s are pretty dam hot too tho... same with the new camaro (when its released) and challenger SRT8 but im assuming it wont be viable as there isnt a RHD conversion available

my brother in law has a mighty boy ute if u wanna buy it for P1 l337ness... its pretty sick... red with a thick black stripe through the middle (side on not like racing stripes), polished beetle wheel caps with red steelies and whitewall tyres! Wont have to worry too much about petrol either it only uses about $15 worth for 2 weeks and seeing as the budget is only $500k im sure we can drop the price down for you james to around the $480 mark... mates rates

Interesting that you blokes all picked hot sport cars for the top 10.

I'd have thrown in a Mercedes-Benz ML63 AMG, a Maserati GranTurismo and maybe even a BMW X6 as a low points consuming weekday runaround.

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
