fark, what a race.. that was action-packed!

Good on him...he has busted his ass for years...good to see fresh faces on the podium

word. He definitely deserves a win. 100+ starts, he was overdue.

If only schumacher finished with some points :)

Yeah I was hoping to see the championship close up as well. But the Schu dealt his own hand this race he only had himself to blame.

That was definatley an interesting race. tyre choice seemed to be the critical thing on a wet but drying then wet track. which didnt come to use with slicks till about 20 or so laps to go.

ms retired with only 4 or so laps to go and the state of his intermediate tyres was pretty crazy he was driving pretty hard on them but after the track became dry he was dropping around 4seconds a lap compared to de la rosa(sp?)

i went to bed with 2 laps to go but knew button was in. and good on him.

yeah spewing schui didn't pit towards the end for some slicks but i guess he didn't want to give up P2, which in the end cost him any points at all.

fark I hope webber doesn't go to RBR. he would be better off staying at williams.

Robert Kubica just got stripped of his double points finish for being underweight... hard luck. He drove really well, aside from the two spins of course

None the less top race, the commentators went a bit overboard with the screaming at the i think... he won... ok. but look how many people had to DNF for him to do it

yeah, they certainly talked it up. i mean yeah, he won a race. but funnily enough someone wins every grand prix!

bummer for Kubica. Nice to see a pole in there.

I am really pissed that MS didn't hang on until the end. That would have really livened up the championship as I would love to see sanchez under some pressure for once. Just to see how he takes it. he is great when way out in front but I dont think he's all that cool when the pressure is on.

JESUS CHRIST!!!

Anyone been to itv.com/f1 lately???

According to them, Jenson won the race, is now the title favorite and has finally cured cancer!!! all in the one day... amazing!! he really is the second coming of the messiah

have a look at the home page and the stories that dominate it!!!

jenson can suk my wang. getting a win after years and years with potentially race winning teams is no great achievement.

Umm, how many wins do Honda have? and from 14th (but with exclusions of Shuey and Alonso)

I say good on Jenson, with a top contending car/team he would be doing much better (of course)...not to say Honda is crap, but they are a new team compared to Ferrari, Williams, Renault.

But yeah, Jensen is God at itv-f1 at the mo :(

Button is god to them at every single race, it really is a joke how much they crap on about how good he is. :(

Personally i was hopeing Rubens would get the break through for them :D

Anyway to more important issues!

Why the F*%K would Webber go to RBR? :)

Athough they have more backing than Williams i don't think they will be a top team for a few years at least, a few years Webber dosn't have. i just don't understand ??

Any thoughts to explain why???

i thought rbr wasnt too bad. they seem to be doing alot better than williams.... i think.

I agree, the commentators spoiled what would have been an awesome F1 race, possibly the most entertaining in 2006.

Sure, he won his first GP. But its only taken him how many years? He isnt that great a driver in my opinion, and had a few other drives stayed in the race it could have turned out completely differently.

I would have been more impressed with the win if half the field hadnt DNF'ed.

As for coming from 14th... didnt Alonso come from that part of the field to lead for quite alot of the race? Keeping in mind Alonso and Schumi both came from the back of the pack too, its not that great an achievement.

yeah I may have been a bit harsh but he won a race that had no schuey, no alonso, no kimi, no montoya so lot's of big names either out of the race (whilst in front of JB) or just absent.

still, good on him.

i thought rbr wasnt too bad. they seem to be doing alot better than williams.... i think.

True, but are they better than a Renault or Maclaren ..... i think not

If he has signed with RBR they must have put a very very good offer on the table me thinks.

Also, just read that Renault maybe suppling RBR with engines next season ...........the plot thickens

RBR is supposedly a good option for Weeber because the areo will be an Adrian Newey design with either Ferrari or Renault engine... And you saw the top end pull of schumi's Ferrari here at Hungary.

If you do think about it seriously for a moment, RBR will be up there sooner rather than later, why not jump in while there's still an seat to jump into

Button wins a GP...bout time

I cant watch this anymore with these biased pommy dckhead commentators...what a joke at the end when they yelled...HE WON!!!!..please no more for me...more sleep for me on Sunday nights but :thumbsup:

RBR for Webber is a mystery team to join...they could be strong with the aero but who knows..too much of a wild card..renault would be safer

Edited by gtr660hp

yeah, renault would equal short term results which is exactly what webber needs right now before his career is over. no point in looking at long term prospects, he needs RESULTS next year or he will no longer be in a strong negotiating position to get a better drive.

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.
    • post up screen shots of your injector tables
    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
