Take it in context. All they want to push is the completely out of reach class of motorsport. I have taken bikes around Lakeside and found it fun, but bike racing on a car track is just dull really as there is so much room to go around competitors.

Perhaps start reading some rules. Personal comments are not appreciated. If I knew you I might tolerate it, but so far your attempts at input to the forum have been completely without value. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...c=111125&st=0

Maybe try the ricer forum.

Oh and there is no such thing as a HR33 GTR.

Funnily enough this is a car forum. Not much interest in bike racing.

So who noticed how low key 10 went with the announcement on Sunday?

And to top it off, how pointless is the new eye candy in an interview? If they think that sells racing fine, but the only chicks I'm interested in are behind the wheel.

Hmmm.. Reading through this. A lot of whingeing, not much solution.

Look at this way.. its 2006.. digital cam the events you want to see in your own form in a co-ordinated fashion, compress it to 300meg, commentate it as necessary.. Bittorrent the result for practically free. All could be achieved and co-ordinated around the country at very very low cost. A revenue model could even be generated around some advertising throughout, or placement through an accompanying blog/upcoming/commentary website. The whole underlying tech structure is not difficult, databases, fancy looking website, dynamic update system can all be built -- somebody just has to get out there and capture it. Which level of motorsport is of course up to whoever would be keen.

Thing is the networks are so far behind the times it is time for the people that really want to watch something different to go out there and produce it themselves. The technology has long been here and is quite matured.

TV died about 2 years ago, they just don't realise it. Anybody with half a brain these days won't put up with the networks f**king around delaying tv episodes from the States, delaying sporting broadcasts, and for stretching every last dollar from the TV audience, and/or advertisers. Most have watched them a few hours after they have aired o/s, downloading time at DVD quality only a few minutes more than the actual show itself. I don't think I have watched a TV series "in the raw" (i.e. broadcast) for 12 months now, just because I'm sick of being dictated to in an interactive world.

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
