Well it is/was already popular. Just that the fuly sik brigade was largely ignorant of its existance. Thanks to a few magazines hype-mongering those happy days have now passed. This is from near on three years ago....

Um Not so much. Something in the gearbox/ATTESSA system has gone blah - probably a bearing, so I have it booked in to get it checked after Easter. Thought it best to let it feel some wrath (ok, neglect) in the interim.

Hmm, maybe Nismo do something for the lower transverse arm: http://www.nismo.co.jp/en/products/competi...ylinebnr32.html http://www.nismo.co.jp/en/products/competi...ylinebnr32.html

I found this in my travels: http://www.nismo.co.jp/en/products/competi...ylinebnr32.html Specifically the upper link bracket and the transverse link are interesting. Shame there is no really specific dimensional info offered, although some lengths etc are quoted.

Actually they both are rear engined. I was just trying to make the point that when drafting regulations you have to be a bit carefull of unintended consequences. But doubtless you already know that.

Here are my entries:

Well all engine failures are electrical. Especially when a piston spits out the side of the block & nails the alternator. Anyway I guess it is so much better for the PR people if they can blame another team for their own inability to write proper code.

I ran some sad roadies on a track in my GT-R once. Bashed the living hell out of the tread blocks. Buffed tyres, anyone?

Want to win = spend some coin, same as always. My point was (is) that there are plenty of people out there who would want to run in the road car class on R compounds. I would suggest more people fall in that category than those wanting to run on road tyres in the street car class. Allowing R comps would both boost entries & improve the spectacle. But that is just my opinion. We never seem to have any issues in getting road registered car entries on R comps where I am from. I did. Its just that the rules killed off Porsches in the same way the internet has killed sarcasm. I was being sarcastic. Not that it matters.

Which (to my mind) shows up the fundamental problem in forcing people to run "road" tyres. They end up having to buy new (shit) tyres to be anywhere near competitive, thus negating the whole point of the exercise. Anyway. Good luck & go the Porsches. Eh?

According to the the old publicity handouts the wheels/tyres were as follows: Rims: 18' (Group A were allowed 2" up on standard) Tyres: 265-680 x 18 Yokohamas, obviously. It doesn't give a rim width unfortunately but I think I can find it.

That is clearly bullshit. Harold Holt was never knighted.

You are kidding, right?

Classy. I like their drink bottle, too.

Where can I get live practice time feeds on the net? Not the formula1 website that is. Wont work at, um work.

Oh and go Fisi. Indian powah. Better than that square jawed Scotsman in a ny case.

Well now that they have survived the summer, clearly Super Aguri are only half a step away from world domination. Merch it up, Baron. http://en.superaguri-f1.com/

What the hell is going on at Williams?

Loctite.

Yeah well they said something about getting their people to talk to my people.

On the up side Nissan also announced that they are looking for a way of getting Richard's into the R35 in local motorsport. So we are set.

Well there is alot of it about. I read the title of this thread and thought to myself, great finally someone is doing something about all the skanky GMG R32 GT-R's about the place. No such luck. The shame of it is the journalists don't understand enough to pick up on the Nissan PR flack's bullsh!t.

Yeah, man. Got me good.

Ow.

Eh?
