It will be interesting to see what happens when Ferrari get a motivated top line driver back in one of their cars. I remember how much the other Kimi upset Senna when he turned up at McLaren all those years ago. Senna had grown a bit complacent from having a second rate team mate (Andretti in this instance) & he really had to pull his finger out in the last few races before he disappeared of to Williams.

^^^^^^ yep thats what makes 2007 look exiting...I hope Kimi clicks with Ferrari and he has a huge season and maybe Massa can stick with him. Im sure this will put the wind up the sooky la la Spaniard.

I still cant see Alonso settling in as well in his new seat.

And what are Renault thinking with their 2007 driver line up????? No world champs trophies going to Renault for some time.

I just wonder what Kimi's reaction will be if and when Ferrari insist he starts doing dodgy shit a la Schumacher. Ron Dennis is painfully even handed with his drivers and painfully fair in his dealings so such things may come as a bit of a shock to Kimi.

I don't rate Massa. That he can beat Schumacher reflects badly on the German, not well on the Brazillian.

Why wouldn't Alonso settle in at McLaren? He has consistantly shown he can handle the massive pressure he has been put under (Alot better than some others). His comments on Schumacher were very exacting - great driver - not great for a number of other reasons. Hardly whinging.

Look how well Mansell got on with them. And Ferrari for that matter. And Williams. And Lotus.

Actually, back in the day Rosberg got on alright. As did Lauda. Even de Cesaris.

That it didn't work out for Montoya probably says more about Montoya than McLaren. After all he didn't really get on at Williams, either.

Let's be honest if Ron Dennis can get on with someone as difficult as Ayrton Senna, he can surely get on with Alonso.

My guess is that Mclaren and alonso will get on like a house on fire... They both take the same attitudde towards racing and both demand perfection from themselves and the team. I predict a great future for two of them.

Ron loves Alonso and im sure he'll try to provide him with best... because if he doesnt and Alonso leaves, Mclaren will have no top tier drivers to replace him

Actually, because he is such a talentless hack he only has to do it once to show that Schumacher is no longer at the top of his game.

ok...

so if schumacher wins the title this year, it'll show alonso to be a talentless hack, because he couldnt beat MS who is apparently losing his touch....

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
