Agreed, live timing is sex.

If Webber was able to get a few more laps in with those new tyres at the end he could have ended up on the first row.

No one was near him for the first half of the session, he did well to bank that nice lap.

oh and i didnt mention that "Fisico" looks good for a win, not that im cheering for him or anything but he kept on pumpin in the fast ones with no probs

and wat happened to Alonso???

SMWBH syndrome.

Lets hope Webber gets a podium, Williams/Cosworth combo looking ok at the moment hopefully they can keep it up.

Rosberg has certainly impressed.....so far.

what the??? Nico>>>> P3 (not bad for a newbie!!!) glad to see Alonso at P8-might get interesting if he starts to come through the pack. I'm betting Fisi doesnt last long at the front-hmmm could be an interesting race with this jumbled grid.

well the race was good for the first 20 laps, then it was a bit of a snooze fest.

it was nice to see webber not taking any crap from rosberg at turn 1. but they both got hung out to dry a bit. I dont think there was any great need for rosberg to squeeze webber so far off line as webber was always going to come up the inside, rosberg should have been more concerned with the rest of them (gonzo in particular).

shame the cossies blew, but 2 fresh engines for melbourne means i will get to hear a V8 at 21 000rpm in qualifying. :dry:

I'm glad Kimi got shunted-it will make it interesting later in the season when he tries to regain some points.

Yep fresh cossies for the boys in Melbourne-love to see the williams on P1 P2

Rookie mistake from Rosberg.He should have realised Webber was going though and just tried to stop Alonso.He ruined Webbers and his own chance to shine up front before their motors went.

Montoya wasnt that quick and hardly seen him,but Raikkenon would have been fast i think as always.But its starting to look like the Renaults are gona run away with it again.

I reckon Nico will get is arse kicked for the turn 1 move.

Far too busy trying to squeeze his teammate right to the inside, there is no excuse for allowing someone around the outside

absolutely. like i said above he was far too concerned with keeping webber behind him when he should have been thinking about a fast starting, fuel heavy renault. because had he and webber kept alonso behind i doubt alonso would have been able to pass them with the amount of fuel he was carrying. it was a dumb move by rosberg and nearly ended badly. he is so quick though and will definately keep webber on his toes.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
