Do they offer an e85 map? Or only 91/93 maps?

 

Not sure about e85 but they offer australian maps for 98 or 95 as our fuel is slightly different 

I got the Cobb because it saved me from having to get it dyno tuned for simple mods like intake / exhaust, can just download maps for them. 

Otherwise you put an intake on you have to get it dyno tuned. 

Dezz, I drove a RS3 the other day a mate just bought one, 2016 model $69k 24,000km on the clock.

Thing has shit loads of power, 0-100 4.3sec & 4WD - replacement for the excel? 

Had the performance exhaust or whatever, first thing I thought was sounds exactly like a V10 lambo / R8 from the inside, massive shock. Get yaself one, pocket change for you

Not going all out on a daily, wanna get a C63 amg

is it the NA or the TT though.

mate had both and whilst the newer TT was faster the NA sounds and looks much better.

and with way too much power to use on the street anyhow

he took me for a lap of sandown in the NA and we were still touching 250 on the front straight with very low corner exit speed.

 

2015 model, previous model still looks ok on the outside but pretty dated on the inside..
Warnie's is nicely specced, black, could do without the red exterior accents but they don't look bad..diamond stitching package.. 4 door.. I'm torn there.. The 4 doors do have a very nice stance in person.. And obviously more practical, but coupes are more 'sporty'

Interior is nice, exterior meh. Looks nowhere near exciting as previous model. Saw a C200 on the the road that other day and could have mistaken it for C63.

4 door is cool, 2 door probably better resale

Is 2 door that "shooting brake" design one?

 

Edit: no thats C45 amg or some shit

Cleanest 32R I've ever seen in my life yesterday; original paint so fresh it looked like a respray. Owner was a 72 year old Asian guy who looked about 50 and talked about boost and drag racing like he was 25. Guy supercharged his wife's Hyundai without telling her just for kicks. Inspirational as f**k.

  • Haha 1

She said the car felt faster and he laughed and told her. It was positive displacement too. She sounded stereotypical old Asian lady; always on his back about everything; sitcom material. Had an 8MR too I think.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
