I've had the #4 on your list at the Rockpool, agree it was a great burger

Also the place where I have had my best steak I have eaten so far

Remember how much the burger was? And was it sit down restaurant style or do they have a more casual bar setup as well?

Colleague just ordered 1199 panigale S

Rich mother f**ker

Was about $20. It's a sit down restaurant. Rockpool is a very classy and somewhat posh restaurant. It's a two chef hat restaurant so it's up there with the very best.

I know what rockpool is, I just thought the burger might be part of a bar menu.

Someone needs to tell Neil perry that the ponytail is out.

Way out

Hrmm not sure. Just went down for a quick lunch and was on the sit down menu. Not sure if their is a bar menu there

30k? Hola...definitely makes it more appealing, considering it's lacking a turbo. Still want to sit in the thing before ordering though.

Good luck. All Pre-sales have been sold out. Friend says only 1800 planned for Australia this year and they all taken.

I'm in no rush for it lol. It'd be silly for me to buy a car where my head touches the roof!

Actually, reading up on Toyota's official/claimed figures for acceleration is a little disappointing...7.6 for the manual and 8.2 for the auto in a 0-100 dash. Thought it'd at least be into the high 6's like a Sportivo Corolla...this is N/A Skyline territory :/

Ide still get it. Im sure it would be a pretty fuel efficient car, compared to a skyline lol. Kind of hard to compare the two..

I think the track was damp too, which made it even more weird.

yeah that's even more weird, could only say that the gti being lighter and more nimble can make its time up where it really needs to

but in any case I'm still a mk5 fan over the mk6

Haha my friend has the golf gt with dsg (supercharged and turbocharged) zippy car!

mates got one as well, only thing that he comments about it is tuning abilities, GIAC (tunes a lot of golf guys get) don't even supply a tune for his car

gti would still be my pick for really performanced based car out of all of them

haha tdi is probably faster :P

Combined fuel cycle is supposed to be 7.8L/100km, and a little more efficient for the auto, which is about average for a 2 litre these days. It'll be heaps better than a Skyline, but a Skyline is also a lot more car. The thing sure is good looking though - I can see them being popular for purchase in the second hand market and modified heavily with turbo bolt ons.

cops will be all over the turbo kits i'd say (cos a lot of people will be bored of 2.0l n/a power)

i'd go for a 350z - however i understand people wanting a new sporty car for a half decent price

    • 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.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
