Hmmm, it's not Friday in Monaco yet though :closedeyes:

Anyone know why they have free practice on Thursday in Monaco, then nothing on Friday, before quali on Saturday?

Good to see Webber hanging in the top 10 in both sessions despite the fact that the RBR's had hydraulic problems. Hopefully they can sort the car so he can put in a good performance in qualifying and get towards the front of the grid for the race.

yeah i know i saw that Friday bit too... but i just ripped the title from ITV, so forward you complaint to them

Its an old school tradition that practice be on Thursday. Considering how much the FIA overlook when it comes to Monaco, im not surprised they let this continue aswell

Pitpass.com is probably my favorite site for F1 editorials... i mightnot understand all the words but the stories are all very very well written and not afraid to ruffle some feathers. The latest installment is a ripper

A Message From Melbourne

Link doesn't seem to be working?

Fisichella bins it, Schumacher bins it, Sutil bins it, Davidson bins it, Coulthard bins it and Hamilton bins it......

Monaco bites!!! Good to see Webber has pace, that hydraulic issue it a bit of a worry though....will be interesting to see how Hamilton recovers. Especially as he was saying he wants pole.

..is a hack. Too bust getting drunk at the strippers. He clipped a wall in Q2 and had to retire. It will be a test to see how easily his cage gets rattled. Ferrari beign Ferrari it wont be hard to imagine that the team forget about Kimi to keep Massa up with the Mclarens

Monaco Grand Prix: Winners & Losers

However Mark didn't beat James Allen's excitement at seeing Robert Kubica in between the two McLaren drivers after their final pit-stops. It was Murray Walker at his best and almost as good as the time they mistook Pedro de la Rosa for Juan Montoya at the Italian GP. (A gaffe that was re-recorded for the highlights programme).

Kubica was an entire lap behind the McLarens at the time, "This could be interesting Robert Kubica's between the two McLarens and he doesn't have to stop!"

Yeah, right, and Sato's in front of them both

boring race. maclaren smashed them lapping everyone up to 4th. massa was a long way back and the rest... well the rest were at least a lap down. webber's car broke again and kimi was buried down the order and couldn't seem to pass anyone. oh, and thanks a bunch channel ten for delaying the telecast so you can rip off halfwits who text in for your fking big brother quiz. arseholes.

    • @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.

    • 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.
