Nah,

Itd about the current financial crap...and they asked some expert on the top 5 modern classics that would hold their value for investments...

1. 66 mustang

2. late 80's early 90's porsche 911

3. 60's-70's mini cooper S

4. VC Brock commodore

5. 89 - 94 mx5

Yeah apparently Gay guys pay really good money for MX5's, do they deliver enough of a punch in the back though???

MX5's hold value? I know of one within those years that just sold for $4k, and the same buyer got another whole car as a spare for $1000 to use as parts......maybe there's a special model thats more desirable than others ("SP" turbo one came out way later though)?!?!

The number two, Porsche 011. Were they meaning the "widowmaker" 993 GT2/993 Turbo? (last of the air cooled)

The GTR isnt on the list, where did it come roughly - within the top ten?

Its not a "direct" list, its just what these experts said. and not a top ten, thats just a random order I put up, dont know, I didnt produce the show, was jsut asked to be on it.

And take for example my old mans mx5, he paid 8k for it 4 years back, has had offers for same amount a few years on, but he doesnt want to let it go.

You can buy any car on the cheap if its dodgy and old and needs work!

but its still going to be worth shit all. Buy one with low kms, great nock, and they will hold value.

No idea on the porka

there is only 1 993 GT2 in aus thats road registered and it up for sale at classic throttle shop for $450k, the 993 Turbo has held its value and ive started to see 996 Turbos dip lower in value.

The Porsche models that will genuinely go up in value are the 911 Carrera 3.2 from 86-88 and the 964 Turbo 3.6 (the one in the original bad boys). I'm currently eyeing off 911 3.2's contemplating wether i should take the plunge and buy in now.

    • Mount some of these on your dash? https://www.greddy.com/products/16001720  
    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
