errr dunno how but I beat one last night at a TLGP...not teh fly by either...

He was probably using 1st gear, 10% throttle and thinking to himself:

"Look at that kid in his $15,000 car trying to race me mamoru.gif

I'm going to go home, sip on some $5000 cognac, smoke a $2000 cigar and make love to my 18 year old nubile young wife"

think i saw a bently in parking on victoria ave chatswood on the weekend was mesmorised.

can somebody show me the bently logo or a pic of the new ones

looked like a REALLY beefy 350z kinda thing

was actually wondering what they thought they were doing parking a million dollar car in the middle of chatty though

My old man went shopping for a conti GT... they are ****ing cheap at around $280k from memory (note, an Arnage T is around $600k).

They are majorly pimpin... but handle like a fridge on a cloud of air and they aint that quick at all. I'd guess a low 13 1/4 mile.

Too slow for his liking, so he picked up a cheaper, and a helluvalot faster AMG E55

I doubt the old retired guy who would have been the owner could give a toss about traffic light grand prix's!!

was actually a youngish guy (mid to late 20's)

I heard his induction noise and engine starting to roar. even if he wasn't full throttle he still lost teh TLGP...:)

I thought the car when running economy the Turbo were shut off. When pressing the Sport mode the turbo is activated. I watched this on Top gear review and i think this is how it goes.

You've just described all turbo cars off boost.

The Continental GT is one of those superdooper cars like a Murcielago or Vanquish - sounds like a Supermarine Spitfire on the road.

    • Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?   
    • You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.
    • Run the piping how we all have for decades. Also the duel runners with the +T setup dramatically helps it gets on boost quicker. Yes, chase huge power it'll become a problem, but you're a long way off when you're already saying an aftermarket ECU is out of the budget. You also say NisTune as it's simple, and then immediately say it'll be painful, meaning... It won't be simple. It will likely cost you a lot more stuffing around with a Nistune, than just putting a Haltech or similar in.
    • I’ll order an afr gauge to keep an eye on it.  Then will get a haltech soon 
    • TD05 or maybe pulsar PSR2867r Gen 2?  id love a garret but it’s quite out the budget for now and I’m not chasing crazy power.    yeh fuel pump haven’t looked into but whatever works, kind of last on my list.    Nistune because it’s simple but Ik it’s a lot of pain especially as I’m auto +t with the whole seperate TCM etc still investigating that. Haltech id love but once budget tight for now atleast.    finally the reason I’m trying for a plenum instead of the stock intake is I already have a standard Intercooler mounted etc. so the ports are on both sides so trying to not have to go over the clutch fan radiator etc. trying to find a good deal return flow if I don’t than this will do for now I guess. btw any ideas with that, apparently some people have to cut blades to reduce it from hitting the Intercooler piping over the radiator ? Thanks
