Hey fellow Aussies.

Beautiful car Tilpa.

Many other Sydneysiders here? i have only ever spotted 1 GT4 on Sydney roads.

Has anyone protective wrapped their cars? Looking for someone reputable in Sydney to do mine when it arrives.

I had pro vinyl do my C2S and probably the GT4 whenever it decides to arrive

Those pictures make CWM look amazing! Is the pearl that apparent in person? My car gets delivered to the clear film shop on Thursday and I can't wait to see it. I've only seen standard White GT4's.

So I am guessing you were happy with them? Or you getting someone else to do the GT4?

Looks like we have a twin - I got 981GT4 in NZ. Congrats to the OP. Wonder how much the bike's being ridden. Mine hasn't been touched since.

I've been reading Mooty's thread on GT4 Drive and Tech session - would be so cool to do something like that. Any chance you guys would organise something like that? It's not that far across the ditch, well Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane anyways.

Oops I just double checked, I resurrected the wrong thread, might bump the other one and see which one has more legs.

Should be getting my GT4 in July/August too. I went with my initials on a Victorian Euro style plate Almost got VXXGT4, but decided to go for my initials.

I love the 998S Biposto! My bikes are a Ducati 1098R with 70mm full Termi exhaust/racing exhaust cam/race ECU at 177hpatw and a Norton Commando 960 (see avatar pic )

Cheers mate! I used Pro-vinyl as well - did the track pack. They did a good job but there were a couple of things I wasn't happy about (car was filthy when they handed it back, they have recently changed the film they use and this was not reflected on their website). After the film was applied I found a guy called Frank who owns Definitive Car Detailing in Artarmon who did Opticoat and paint correction. Amazing work & very fastidious. He made the point that protective wraps are mainly about paint protection rather than paint perfection! Also met another GT4 owner the other day. Guards Red with sofas. Looked fantastic.

For me its only apparent under certain light conditions

I am embarrassed to say its being ridden very little...

I would be up for that!

Seriously though, nothing, absolutely nothing sounds as good as a Duc with a decent exhaust and an open clutch cover


And eff me it's fast!

Hi all
What are people's thoughts on the sport buckets?
I could not get them on my car as I did not build it.
I'm looking at getting a set.

I have them on my car. They're worth every penny. I was worried my fat **** wouldn't fit in them, but they are very, very comfortable and hold you tight. They are as special and beautiful as they are comfortable to sit in.
