You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

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

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

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

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
