  2. What, going with an engine manufacturer that would have to staff up with all new people to develop an engine for F1? They will make a good engine, but have no idea about KERS etc...but I cant see an engine making that big a difference to McLaren who will need o make the package work. I really hope someone picks up Cosworth and continues with it as a going concern. he name has far too much history to fade away. Hopefully the stories about the new engines not being use din 2014 get put to bed the next day or three in FIA and F1 discussions and the likes of Cosworth can sign people up for their engines.
  3. Price for the Metropolis Gear bag?
  4. Kind of...car is heading to Europe for their summer and need AC for the drives through the Alps. )
  5. Not a bad layout. Makes me wish that the ROC included some identical retro late 70s style F1 cars with manual boxes, and plenty of grunt and to see who can go 40 laps driving the things without missing gears, blowing up boxes, over revving engines etc
  6. LOL, Dane ....that vid is freakishly good for an external mount. This is the best I could get with packing the housing and mic port with hedphone foam to try and insulate it May be a long shot but i hazard a guess that where your camera is mounted is in a good spot and that your cars aero is working better to shield it from airflow vs lil Caterham and its tomb like aero causing loads of turbulence around the camera
  7. Working on my other car, Skyline is primary mode of transport until the other is back on the road so not tempting fate by asking too much from the Skyline at present
  8. 231 pages...so much crap talk in the thread yes, but guessing the question has been asked and answered every 5 pages means its been asked and answered over 50 times. ie, Kando dont do any such turbo. Go look at high flows from whoever you fancy for hiflows
  9. Ditto....jump on a plane and come see the race in the flesh and hope to keep the GP here. Channel 10 are a disgrace and I am sure their coverage will continue to be bad entertainment! Nothing wrong with cross promotion and trying to get people to turn on the box, but bad tv is bad tv....you would think it would be easy to cover the F1 with coverage and info on Aus/Nz greats like Brabham, Hulme, and other notable people like Perkins, Shenkin etc . Show the history the sport and Australian contribution to it....and interview the Australians in the pits working for various teams and show the Aussies behind the scenes!
  10. Clutch sold...turbos are all still laying around. Nobody wants Trust gear when they can get Kando for 1/3 the price
  11. Like I said, will be interesting to see the results. The flap can open however it likes, exhaust flow is has to turn 90deg out of the wastegate orifice cast into the housing and then again as it merges with the flow of the exhaust gas. If he has the sizing sorted then will be a nice solution. And re the more power/boost less exhaust flow...true but the problem is compounded as you also have more mass of airflow through the engine which needs to go through an orifice in the exhaust housing scroll the size of a 10c piece and when the gate opens another 20c piece which when it opens has to merge without causing turbulence and back pressure to all that exhaust flow through the turbine. I sure as shit have no idea how it all does what it does so well...just have seen for years people try to get the same result as my setup out of the internal gate TD06 turbos and fail, only for those to go external gate setup and the things work so much better.
  12. interested to see how it goes...wouldnt you expect the same poor performance as Trust TD06 internal gate turbos when they make wastegate gas turn 90deg, travel an inch then turn another 90 deg?
  13. Preferable for you to be located in Melb
  14. Looking for compelte engien bay AC setup for an 1993 R32 GTSt
  15. Great to see my old town in the news. I love crazy Hyderabad. The officials in that town know the game. Use your position and title to make threats against a bloke with buckets of cash hiding it from creditors....get your lazy payout of a few hundred crore and case goes away and creditors still go without! Great system of democracy!
  16. Malaysian GP is good fun. GP doesnt pull a huge crowd but still good fun to holiday in Malaysia
  17. Lots of wives and girlfriends wont be letting their partners travel to this GP!
  18. Drive whatever car you can afford that makes you smile/laugh/happy etc. Lets read more about the car this thread is meant to be about. Looking forward to some in car footage
  19. $10 its a mates clothing label!
  20. Yeh, Dan has at least pulled a crazy P6 quali from the car. Would have had points in Monza but a failure, 8th on the weekend but a failure. There has been enough glimmer there as well as absence of stupid things to keep him in the hunt. I think Vergne shoudl be retained but his age and less experience has shown with his wacky driven in Valencia, i read a driving error at Monza put him out at the first corner lose....and he hasnt really shown a ot of quali pace...but is a strong racer amd both seem to have great attitudes and work well together Caterham are coming out saying they will have some major news in the next few days. Hopefully they are poaching good staff off Force India for next year
  21. Is everybody else able to read stories in the autosport website? I am no longer able to read articles. It looks like they have gone full pay access Also, all wait/pray for now is for Senna to get the ass. To think he almost tricked me with the few races he had at Lotus last year. Upon reflection you can understand why Heidfeld was so pissed off for losing his seat to the worlds nicest but slowest F1 driver
  22. Than god I didnt buy a new camera last month as I just read the new Go Pro Hero 3 is about to come out and it looks GOOD! So will probably grab one for my trip OS next year
  23. Joe Saward is still of the opinion that Webber will be at Ferrari in 2014. I can see Webber being willing but dont see a Ferrari need for him. Plenty fo other capable guys to drive alongside Alonso until Alonso retires. Guys like Hulk, Rosberg etc get a chance in a top car if they shine then great...if not when Alonso retires hunt for Vettel in 2017 if some other hotshot hasnt come along in the meantime
  24. So much Massa hate. His form in the last few races is the guy we saw alongside Schuey in his final year and alongside Kimi. Nowhere near he talent of Hamilton but i tell you what his behavior in the hours of thinking he had won then realising he had lost to Lewis was showed the character of a champion! The way Lewis throws his toys out the pram every few weeks and plays victim shows he isnt able to stand up and be counted as a man let alone a champion. Read his latest twitter outburst having a sook that Button had un-followed him and people are abandoning him...only to find out later that Button had never followed him so stop being a paranoid, bitchy sook. So many examples of sooky, bitchy selfish, me-me-me behaviour. His trip over his dick losing places to Vettel and co in the fial stint to lose the WDC only to have Glock lose tyre temp and give Lewis the WDC i
