  1. I had an iPhone 5 and didn't like it and have switched to a windows phone, I have a Nokia lumia 1020 considered the 920 but 1020 was just released at the time, its very easy to use and comes with Nokia's reliability. Has a lot of the same features as the apple stuff but isn't as limiting lets you communicate with all other windows products and most smart tv's. The app store isn't as large but has most of the popular higher end apps. Also doesn't suffer from virus issues like some of the Androids.


  2. I've been in both the v8 and v10 R8's, it was only as a passenger whilst someone else punished them around a track, so I cant really comment on their comfort level, but they both performed flawlessly. It felt like a supercar should very responsive and sounded amazing, it may be out performed by the 911 and R35 but in terms of looks, feel and sound it'd be my pick. I haven't had any experience with the 911 but have the R35, the R35 is a brilliant car don't get me wrong but it felt too easy, like anyone could hop in a look like a racing driver in it, it took a lot of the fun out of it because they've done all the work to make it so driveable.


  3. No worries i went through all the options when i did mine, tried the coupe rear but because they are split and normally fold down it would mean making up all new mounts whereas the sedan share the same design mountings so you can use the originals


  4. A quick update, M52 manifolds are on and only needed a small amount of modification to clear the steering. Alloy radiator thanks to Fenix arrived and is sitting nicely in place. I decided to keep the standard brake booster just needed moving left and down 15mm

  5. I have twice, both times Auckland to Napier only cost me $250 both times. Picked a car up myself one time before that and by the time I factored in fuel, road trip energy drinks and how long it took me to go get it and bring it back, it wasnt worth the $50 I saved.

    I can recommend Car Distribution Group but are quite pricey if your not a trade customer.


  6. Hmm - might have a look for that then - I've read a Cannonball book last year, that I'd rate as, average read I suppose.

    'The Driver' was also a movie, remembered in my head for having good chase scenes, a bonkable looking chick (at the time), & a 454 powered Chev C-10 ute.......

    He drives an E39 M5 during 90% of the book, hes also put alot if his videos on youtube
