talk to a mercedes benz dealer etc they can usally reccomend where to get the parts, but its usally from them since wreckers dont usally (well i havent seen) have any parts like that. It might cost you abit to replace, but thats the only way to get them, unless there are some euro car parts specialist which would have badges in stock.

Can't remember his name, but there was an SAU member that wanted to fit a V8 into a R34GTR, his family was also extreemly wealthy... perhaps PM him or his bro, they may be able to help you. Otherwise, see your personalised benz dealer, as they would normally replace these at no cost...

SL55's are so awesome ;)

I pulled up behind one as I exited the gym and the guy was talking to his friend in the passenger seat when he noticed me in his rear view mirror. He pushed the button to activate the height adjustable suspension and raised and lowered the car a few times and gave me a grin :D

HAHAHAHAHA... Awesome cars :rofl:

Hang on, you saw a REGISTERED Carrera GT?? Sorry mate, but that smells of BS.

You sure it was the mid-engined, open-top supercar, or a 911 Carrera?

Porsche haven't received ADR approval as yet to get them road registered and so far, none have been delivered to Australian buyers....

I think the whole left hand drive thing is going to be an insurmountable obstacle. Though I would probably stick plates on my and go for a drive if I had one. I mean, it's not like the cops can keep up if you run away!

Yes I know... but what you need to do is read between the lines, and ask yourself. Why would meshmesh mention that Anthony guy to "Black Pearl" in this thread?? perhaps just a coincidence? dont think so

LOL!!!

r u saying that a quick IP check will indicate that black pearl's mum is infact putting in a 308 into the AMG55???? :(

    • 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.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
    • lights are on just the one click.  
    • Absolutely matters because, while a temperature change will eventually reach a sensor at the end of a static line, the response time is far far far too slow to be useful. Might as well not have a temp gauge at all.
    • When I was eyeing off the 370GT (after deciding I didn't want to spend 30-40k+ to relive my early 20s in an R33) I thought it'd be a good project to add a turbo to it. Now that I have a 370GT, and I've had a couple of chances to open it up, I'm pretty stunned by how much power it makes 🫠 Honestly, the way the VVEL opens it up, it almost feels like there's a little turbo tucked away in there somewhere. It's like Nissan looked at VTEC and said "hold my beer" 😁 Has anyone thrown a turbo into their 370Z or 370GT? Is there a conservative boost level you can run without having to upgrade the fuel system, or are bigger injectors and a bigger pump a given?
