Meh. R35 is a great car. When I had mine I got plenty of unwanted attention at servos etc but this was 08-09 before the aus models were released. Its fast as he'll but has no where near the drama of even a gallardo (Audi or not their v10 sounds pretty nice). To be honest I'd be just as happy in and old countach (yes I have an 80s coke dealer complex and I also like linen suits), or give me a fcking diablo. That is a super car. I've drive the new gt40 snowy was talking about. Awesome looks, awesome sound but to me it felt a bit sloppy and boat like. Definitely a super car though. I still reckon an old diablo gets more looks than a r35 but who cares? If getting people to look at you is your thing just run around naked... Otherwise buy whatever car YOU like. Personally I want an f40 a diablo, a countach, a testarossa and a miura please (yes I have a 70s complex too).

You going through another Don Johnson/Miami Vice phase Baron?

You going through another Don Johnson/Miami Vice phase Baron?

yeah, also watched scarface too many times. and risky business. ok now I want a porsche 928 too.

as for you marlin, don't push it!

i knew you were cool! agree they are fking shit cars and be lucky to outrun a dual amputee in one but they do something to me.

sadly on my list of F40s/countach/diable the 928 is about the only one I can afford!

go tony montana!

I loved the design (the 928 was a car of many "firsts"), but the age of it let it down.

A mate had a very late 5.4 litre GTS I think it was, in red, and I still hanker after one just like it....... I know it would be a disappointment, but they're a future crassic :)

Is that a 924 station wagon? Looks like a z3 hard top lol.

Only 928 I drove was an automatic Hong Kong import one back in the late 90's. I remember doing a 0-100 time at 7 seconds lol, back then the hills area was mostly farmland. Yes it was extremely slow compared to today's standards and even when I drove one. But when they were first released they were actually pretty good cars compared to what else was on the market at the time. Although today a Mazda 3 is just as fast.

Yes, me too. But I'm fussy. Must be either a late 840CI or preferably the very last V12, the 850CSI :thumbsup:

We're sickos Baron.

Definately sicko. Did someone say M635csi?

Check this out. Dont start drooling over the 2002 either.

The 3.0L CSL is where it's REALLY at! :)

Years ago my father had a loan car from John Briggs cars whilst his was in their for some warranty work. The loaner was an M635Csi. What a fantastic car! Much, much better than I actually thought it would be. Not often something surpasses your expectations. :worship:

Yes, me too. But I'm fussy. Must be either a late 840CI or preferably the very last V12, the 850CSI :thumbsup:

for sure, 850 is the go. they are pretty cheap these days but the running costs! my god man the running costs! would make a GTR seem cheap to run.

and yes I'd like a 2002 but most of all a really neat, original E30 M3 EVO (later model with the bettter engine etc).

also totally agree we are sick, sick people. still if you're going to be stuck in a timewarp might as well make it an 80s/90s timewarp. there's barely a car I want to own that wasn't made in the 80s or 90s.

F40

E30

etc etc.

even jap stuff was at it's best then and that goes for bikes too.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
