M5V8

aye? I didn't misunderstand - you said front need to come down. You mis-worded your comment. But you are right. Raising the rear will balance the stance out.

look at the front tyre...I don't think so. That's as low as you would want without ruining the ride.Front lip....will sort that. If anything it looks too low. I scrape my lip all over the place. Hows the ride John?

I'm diggin the stance. nice choice in wheel combo. congrats.

I just heard of this...sounded epic. I would have loved to have a crack. another great event ruined.

oh man. that sucks.

I like your work. well done.

and... that they regularly used it too.plus they also never sent him anything to request him to stop doing anything. I think it's a setup. He has a new system in development where artists can upload songs and get paid directly for the legal downloads (minus a cut for megaupload). this would effectively cut out record labels. they need to kill or delay the launch of this. This is how they did it. big business america terrorizing to get their way.

yup. and to be honest. He sounds like a hellova fun dude. I bet parties @ his pad are epic.

not that I have been able to find..... I would have thought my wheel spinning antic's at the start-line would have made it onto youtube by now...(no traction until 3rd gear in the middle of turn 1). I have some incar, but my camera is junk and the footage is pretty crap to be honest. I need one of those gopro things....

there's alot of work in that car so im not surprised! But standard motor & 265's & AP's ?? the car is begging for more welly.

connect to a 12v power source?

well...he would be entitled to the money. The crown has seized what they are calling "proceeds of a crime". Lotto winning would be clearly not fall into that category. I would have thought he would have proven enough he's not a flight risk. Why run from millions more & your hot wife & kids. Can't wait to see him tear their case apart in court.

if anyone else was there on the day feel free to post your vids / pic's. I saw about a thousand camera's.... I did locate vid of the one off...

nice shots anyway.....

crazy? if by crazy you mean genius.........

man I do very much want a drive.... or one in my garage. I wonder what it would take to make the motor bulletproof? so far it sounds alittle fragile.

hey chris.... you didn't come & say hi.... it was harder for me to know who you were. There was about 1000 people with cameras.... only one lonely GTR....

couple of new channels I've been seeing some cool stuff on. http://www.youtube.com/user/drive http://www.youtube.com/user/TheSmokingTire with stuff like this: - a lotus with a 50% BETTER power to weight ratio than a veyron.

build movie here it smokes a M6

cheers ethan. appreciate the words of wisdom. guess there's a few little surprises coming our way

oh so much safer....lol.mods is really just wheels (still have standard ones) front springs, strut bar, filters and exhaust. I doubt they would pick up things like upgraded slotted brake disc's or light upgrades. Geeze I hope we can get away with 1 container.

all sounds reasonable except the $50k! part holy cow. You must have had alot of stuff. is it a requirement to change the fluids and belts? I think we will probably go with shipping the car and then another container for the rest of our stuff. $4k is pretty reasonable for a everything drive on/off service.

I'm another interested party here. Planning on moving at the end of this year and taking my e39 M5 with me. Ethan, what did you have to do to your e39 apart from the $4k shipping costs? compliance costs? stamp duty? how much is the mod plate? do wheels count as a mod? Moving to QLD if that helps. Any recommendations on companies to use would be appreciated. (don't plan on selling it ... ever)

awesome race. At one point I think there were 5 different manufacturers in the top 6.

Found it. Loose block connector. Don't know why I used it. Two snap connectors later. Problem solved! Cheers to those whom chipped in. Roll on Sunday
