The DuPont Registry is like the US version of Unique Cars, but with the bling factor turned up 300%. We're talking pimped out H2s, gangsta S-600s, original Cobras, Diablos, Saleen C7s, lions, tigers, bears... oh my.

Anyhoo - your reputable newsagent (Borders) should have a well-thumbed copy for around $18 clams to flick through - f*ck buying it - and the current issue is a doozy.

Celebrity Cars

Stock is for suckers for these bad boys. Featured rides from Hef, Tito (the Animal) Ortiz, Busta Rhymes - and many more.

Even TV's Bo Duke (John Schneider) is featured with his car... the General f*cking Lee!

Can't get to the shops?

Best. Magazine. Ever.

Haha Gordo - one of movie's all time great car-scenes is Marky Mark dragging the Batmobile against a Mondial cabrio in 'Rockstar'. Screw your NOS tanks hidden under the seat Vin baby, that sucker has a jet engine in the back :P

Busta seems to be doing OK. Can't say I've bought anything of his - just as well, that green Lambo is vile. The mag says he's ordered a Veyron convertible - a cool US$1.2mil. I image we'll see him in some buddy-cop film before the end of the year:

He is preety big in America and europe. Shaq the basketballer also has a shit load of bling bling cars, but when u make 40+ million a year playing basketball i guess its easy.

Theres a show on MTV called Cribs where they spend the day with super rich celebs and they show off where all their $$ has gone.

The rest of the mag has the full catalogue online.

Lots of practical, daily drivers in there. http://www.dupontregistry.com/

Only $110,000 - but it does have a towbar.

I have always wanted one of these... only $89k

The only Yankee tank I know with a hard-on for Skylines is Paul Walker (no surprises there).

Here's a pic that always cracks me up:

I imaging the Hulk is saying "Check out my T88-34D... it's FULLEE bro!!!"

:P

If you won $30 million of course you'd build yourself a huge garage and fill it full of N1 GT-R's but you know... what else???

I'd imagine you'd guys want some TVR's, M-Power BMW's, AMG Mercs, turbo XR6's, maybe the odd GT3, F360... and a slammed 'Secret Service' style Chevy Surburban on 20" Volks...

As a multimillion you must have a rounded diet... blondes, brunettes, redheads, twins...

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
