  1. Every one of the above is correct, but also since your getting an NA skyline, don't modify it simple. Or if you do, get things they won't defect you for, stereo, decent wheels, suspension. There's no point putting a pod and cannon on there as you won't get much power out of it. If I was 17 and buying my 1st car I would buy something like a honda civic, purely because it's cheap and would save me money (provided you don't go all ricer on it) until I can spend that on a gtr later
  2. Thanks for the tip I'll check that but it hasn't got anything to do with the sensors does it... I mean it's seriously hot air blowing in my face on idle in traffic
  3. Wierd! Who drinks vb's at So early lol, anyhow I saw massive police presence today again at Hume highway near woodville rd 2 cars 2 cops
  4. Just drove past Dan murpheys in casula (I think it's Dan murpheys) anyway on the Hume highway there's 2 highway patrol cars and about 4 other patrol cars 1 van and 2 unmarked cars with cones all setup at the time it was 11:10am so to me that was highly sus, 11am RBTs? I think not They are on the side heading to leppington, I will be driving back heading to the city to sus it out further anyway I'd still avoid it. On a side note there was a highway patrol car following me for 10 minutes yesterday but didn't bother and my exhaust pops hard! Lucky I guess
  5. Ive never seen that fan kick in either (I've got a 50mm radiator) temps on the hottest of days never go over 87/88 deg. The air con gets bloody cold when driving, but when I come to a stop it warms right up almost as hot as outside temp. Have you noticed this also? What's wrong here anyone?
  6. I don't think you need a gearbox loom because i believe the gearbox loom is for auto's thus letting the ecu shift it up/down. It certainly won't be a cheap conversion that's for sure. Everything else looks spot on as far as parts go. Have the engine checked you may save 6grand (minimum) if you don't need a rebuild as you said it's a daily and the rb25s aren't weak so they won't stuff up easily
  7. I notice there's a hole for them at the bottom, am I right to assume that this will line up with the thing that holds the matts in place on the r33? Therefore won't move around. Anyone have this on their r33 can you confirm this so I can order a set.

    2009 F1 Season

    But.... You never know at the end of the season he might decide to come back to F1, I personally don't believe his flame for f1 is out just yet. In which case it may be massa and schu, with kimi into WRC or something. Schu is currently testing a 2007 f1 car at mugello, and the FOTA has agreed tO let him test the F60 now it all depends whether FIA allow him.

    2009 F1 Season

    just in reference to this, who gets the points? does it go under massa's name? or does schuey start fresh.... either way with a maximum of 70 points available it is impossible to see him do any better than 4th, figuring vettel button and mark will be scoring as well.... either way though this has so far been the best season ever, webber scores maiden win and is doing great and now schuey is back. I just hope they bring out some tshirts and caps which i can buy

    Pos Driver Weight (kg) 1. Alonso Renault 637.5. Should Pitt roughly lap 13/14 2. Vettel Red Bull-Renault 655.0. Lap 20 3. Webber Red Bull-Renault 652.0. Lap 18/19 4. Hamilton McLaren-Mercedes 650.5. Lap 18 5. Rosberg Williams-Toyota 654.0. Lap 19/20 6. Kovalainen McLaren-Mercedes 655.5. Lap 20 7. Raikkonen Ferrari 651.5. Lap 18/19 8. Button Brawn-Mercedes 664.5. Lap 23/24 9. Nakajima Williams-Toyota 658.0. Lap 21 10. Massa Ferrari 11. Buemi Toro Rosso-Ferrari 671.5 12. Trulli Toyota 671.3 13. Barrichello Brawn-Mercedes 689.0 14. Glock Toyota 679.2 15.

Alguersuari Toro Rosso-Ferrari 675.5 stolen from autosport.com Alonso has gone light and aggressive, button running heavy looks like tomorrow might be very interesting although I'm hoping for another red bull 1-2 I feel buttons got a chance of getting decent points this time. I also did a rough estimate of when they should Pitt for fuel, but ofcourse you can never be too sure they may switch strategies or it might rain.
  12. The law in nsw is : any street without a sign stating the speed is a 50km/h zone, doubt you can dodge it by saying there were no speed limit signs, normally though they have a warning sign next to the speed limit...
  13. Man everyone is so harsh... Maybe his missus is after the "pop pop pop ...flame goes here... Pop pop" get a flame thrower it'll fix that right up. On a side note max torque at something like 5500rpm so change at 6k or so. Either way I don't see a point in going past 5k unless ur at the strip, even a skid pan you don't need to go that far...
  14. If he's 350 has brembo's he won't need an upgrade for a while and when you do, it'll most likely be braided lines, higher temp pads and slotted rotors with better brake fluid...
  15. That's just about all you can do before it starts costing heaps, eg if you opened it up to work on the head it probably in the end be cheaper to get a twin turbo kit. Work on suspension, don't need heaps of power for a quick car...

    If webber wins I'd like to thank Massa for holding everyone (especially Rubens) up and heikki for his efforts, sutil just lost his wing!

    Also I've added a rough estimate of when they should be pitting for fuel provided driver and car = 605kg and including formation lap etc as the nurburgring should be about 2.4/2.5 kg of fuel per lap, so if all goes well tomorrow and pending strategies should be webber vettel and I'll have to say sutil if he goes incident free followed by the brawns but ofcourse being a Ferrari supporter I'd like them to be able to build enough of a lead over the brawns and come in to the top 5 if they get their strategies right!

    Webbers not running light either For the 2009 season, the FIA are making public the weights of all cars ahead of the race start to help give an idea of relative fuel loads. The cars that made Q3 are weighed after qualifying, while the weights of the remaining cars must be declared by their teams shortly after the session. Below is the provisional grid for the German Grand Prix with each car's weight. Note - Toyota’s Timo Glock has dropped from 19th to 20th after being penalised for blocking Renault’s Fernando Alonso during qualifying. 1. Mark Webber, Red Bull, 661kg. - roughly lap 20 2. Rubens Barrichello, Brawn GP, 647 - lap 14 3. Jenson Button, Brawn GP, 644 - lap 15 4. Sebastian Vettel, Red Bull, 661 - lap 20 5. Lewis Hamilton, McLaren, 654.5 - lap 17/18 6. Heikki Kovalainen, McLaren, 664.0 - lap 21 7. Adrian Sutil, Force India, 678.5 - lap 28 8. Felipe Massa, Ferrari, 673.5 - lap 26 9. Kimi Raikkonen, Ferrari, 674 - lap 26/27 10. Nelson Piquet, Renault, 676 11. Nick Heidfeld, BMW Sauber, 681 12. Fernando Alonso, Renault, 668.2 13. Kazuki Nakajima, Williams, 683.6 14. Jarno Trulli, Toyota, 683.7 15. Nico Rosberg, Williams, 689.6 16. Robert Kubica, BMW Sauber, 673.5 17. Sebastien Buemi, Toro Rosso, 674.5 18. Giancarlo Fisichella, Force India, 662.5 19. Sebastien Bourdais, Toro Rosso, 689.5 20. Timo Glock, Toyota, 662.3 from formula1.com
