    Default Perth AutoSalon '08

    Australia's best known import and high-performance car show comes to Perth next weekend

    Saturday 26 July & Sunday 27 July '08
    @ Perth Convention Centre


    From memory, opening times are Sat 10am - 8pm and Sun 10am - 5pm. Entry is about $20/adult
    Dont quote me, thats just from memory from last year.
    We dont have a OST display this year, but still hope to get down there to check it out.
    I think WaynO and a few of the OzCelica guys had their cars entered

    more info: www.autosalon.org

    cheers

    Good pics there Spectre (gonna have to wait for a little while for the rest to load). Did the VVTi 1JZ S14 go on the rollers or anything else worth notable mention on there too?

    Not only that, it looks like some of the lines lead nowhere! Not a finished conversion i think...

    Lol, $5 off voucher, and it's always good for a laugh.

    I didn't stay long, bout an hour or two.

    The 1J S14 has been around for a lil while, I didn't pay much attention to the hoard surrounding the dyno cage.

    Spectre hit the nail on the head, for a good laugh mostly. Was only $13 with the voucher and it got me out of the rain for a few hours.

    I thought the dyno was broken when the first two cars ran up when after I got there. An S6 RX7 and an S13 (with an S15 SR20) both pulled less than 110rwkw. I would cry if my silver one made that. Then a mildly modded (well, engine wise anyway) RZ Supra came on and smacked down 212rwkw.

    Was a good laugh. I officially love the F430's brakes.
