My old car had high rollcentres which is actually quite dangerous, I reckon if the roll centre is under the ground then the car can't roll above the ground! :)

As you found out, that isn't true. High CoG and low CoR = fall over (technically called excessive roll couple).

Way to ruin my stupid joke with facts and reason and logic!!! :wub:

To be honest I think the main problem was too much Peugeot.

pauls twoogle , is one beautiful looking r32 too ! it's a credit to him.

ross, yeah, the oil to water oil coolers are great, we are seeing much lower engine oil temps now! before we were seeing up to 130 degree's!

I finally went past a newsagency and got my hands on a copy of HPI with the ignition DVD...

Hioctane GTR OMG!

the incar footage of that thing is something else!

The full lap of incar is incredible.

great work guys, it will be damn interesting to see how things will pan out with a few hundred less kilo's in the car.... or another car for that matter.

and perhaps some super sticky rubber, similar terminal speed to the Msports GTR says it all.

i can't get over that.... :blink:

in my final year of uni so i've only had fiddle with it - but not on track just yet.

i've spoken to sydneykid and managed to work out a few formulas to calculate the necessary alignments. the thing is there's nothing to compare it to - cant even go in to get a laser alignment to confirm the settings.

so far so good, from the minimal amount of play i've had i have no doubts that i've got the exact settings it tells me i have.

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
