I can just appreciate the design and engineering that goes into something this big. I f**king love

Incase you hadn't seen one before. These things are awesome

at $78mil it comes in cheaper than a lot of expensive yachts, fark id go for one of these over a yacht! And you cant dive to 305m below sea level with a yacht

I can just appreciate the design and engineering that goes into something this big. I f**king love watching Nat Geo and Discovery for stuff like that, watched them build one of the worlds biggest oil tankers, and how to build an off-shore oil rig. Fascinating shit.

If you sold your car Krishy, youd get 3-4 nights in the Queens Grill Room. Just over $4000 a night.

whats to say i need to sell my car Damo....what if i can afford 3-4 nights :ninja:

Queen Mary 2 and Titanic are nothing compared to the HMAS R33

Contrary to media reports, the collins are actually pretty decent diesel subs. They only run on batteries when submerged ;P

Still, theyre a long way from a boomer like the typhoon or an attack sub like the Los Angeles class... time we went nuclear instead of diesel imho ;P

was pretty sub par, was pissing myself laughing last time i went from the staff member putting on the cheese in a suboptimal fashion. all about the cheese coverage

Who needs to dive 305 metres below sea level. There are no bikini clad women down there :)

Just rock up in one of the Sunseeker Predators :)

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
