  1. Try Herrods not DJR My understanding was that C2R could only sell the front/rear wrap arounds and the sideskirts, DJR own the design for the bonnet, front middle section and boot, hence why C2R manufactures but does not sell them.
  2. KITT (atleast some texas bogans replica) IS FOR SALE http://www.texastvcars.com/knightrider.html
  3. arghhhhhhhhhhhh I have officially lost my patience 5 weeks 1 day ago I ordered my car, I know it is due at the dealers in 6 days and I cant sleep, eat, sh1t I cant wait... if they take any longer then 2 days for pre delivery I am going to go down and slap a wet fish over the bloody dealers head and scream at him to hurry the F(ire r)UCK up! argh nuf b**chin for now I think
  4. ahh the one with the green ute makes me laugh... car doing burnout.... car makes smoke .... camera cant see car .... opps girls ass gets in the way
  5. In my opinion the metal bodywork would not really be that big of a factor when you take into consideration the fact that where the metal is the air is blocked by the bumper anyway. The thing I might look into when I get my car is removing the piece of black plastic in the lower opening infront of the cooler, the below picture shows you exactly what I am talking about
  6. Congratulations, emotion is often hard to gauge on a forum without the use of smileys etc etc but you sound very very happy
  7. Sent an email to AWC to see what they were upto and they have "only done a few test patterns that we really were not happy with." regarding a vented bonnet. I sent them a link to this thread so they could take a look at the bonnet

    and how is this thread any different to the off topic thread?
  9. I am not alone! atleast not for another 13 days
  10. RWKW = FWKW - DRIVETRAIN LOSS A dynometer is an accelerometer, the inertia of the steel drum is a known fact and this means that calculating the power from this spinning drum is pretty easy to do. Wheels, driveshafts flywheels clutches and pretty much anything else that makes up your drivetrain* will effect the DRIVETRAIN LOSS this in effect increases your RWKW it does not increase the FWKW (as this is measured without a drivetrain) if you want examples here are some Light weight flywheel = more power Light weight wheels = more power carbon fibre driveshafts = more power weight requires inertia to move, reduce the weight of your drivetrain and you reduce the inertia it takes to spin your drivetrain meaning more power ends up on the rollers If you really want to see this taken to the extreme take a look at the Jap JTC race cars, they may be rice but they have extreme amounts of power being made reliably out of little engines and they incorporate all the lightweight parts I listed as examples above. p.s pashen I would be interested to see the weight difference between your 17's and your 19's
  11. http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=8...7829330#7829330 The interesting part about this car is that they could not get there hands on an actual car to make a mold from, so they took all there measurements of a 1:18 scale model and multiplied them...
  12. 2003 focus, been a fun little car, nicer if it had a little more punch (4.0L T focus would be wooooohhooooo fun) its sitting out the front all nice and clean waiting for the big tilt truck from the sky to come and pick it up so I can get my T (due april 4th)
  13. ahhh so you work for holden?
  14. dis one sounds abit quicker ;0) http://www.fullboost.com.au/feature_car_sp...storyId=450&p=1 10 second EL 4.0lT (and unlike Jetxr its not a BA motor)
  15. I know that If you check out capa's website you will see they say "BA Bodykits Coming Soon $ TBA" http://www.capa.com.au/prices_accessories.htm that's what I want the info on, not C2R or AWC
  16. awaiting a T ordered 28th of february the dealer is expecting it to arrive on the 4th of april (5weeks) that is to sydney, I am not sure how long it will be after that I get it, This is via govenment fleet not that it makes any diff as far as I know.
  17. could everybody move the cruise back one weekend just so I can join in with my new T?.... pweeeeeease ... its not due at the dealer untill the 4th :(
  18. havnt heard of it, but most of the things like this are to keep costs down, both for the smaller teams and the longjevity (sp?) of the sport.
  19. Any info on the BA bodykits you will be releasing? will it be YAGTC (yet another GT clone) or will they be something unique to capa? how long will we have to wait to see them and most importantly if they are unique can we get some development or test photos to see what you guys are upto? Thanks Nick
  20. Unlikely it would be Craig, he is sick of doing the yo-yo thing between teams and is where he is so he can work with a team and grow it.. consistancy is what he is after moving to SBR would put feathers in that and even though he would be better off there I just dont think he is an SBR type of guy, The most likely situation is that ingal will get the #1 spot this year (Ambrose #2) and towards the latter part of the year Ambrose car will start getting tweaked to suit Warren Luff (using the endors as testing) then the announcement will be made that he will be replacing Ambrose.. much to the surprise of nobody...
  21. on a 1950'ish jag, real nice lookin car, old guy driving plate was KRY51S had me laughing for a while
  22. okay as far as I can see there is only really 3 reasons to go to nascar, first is money, second is he is bored and has been to europe already, third is to get into indycars... I still think its a bit of a money grab but.
  23. open door, flick switch , push button that's the way it should be done
