hammond will say cool

clarkson will say uncool

the crowd will disagree with clarkson

clarkson will play it high in the uncool section so richard cannot move it

Great idea for a poll... I actually thought the opposite; Clarkson likes it but it's not Sub-zero, it's "too geeky". I think he's made too much of a fuss about it to put it in the uncool section but I could be wrong.

I think Richard doesn't like it; he keeps calling it a Datsun and that joke is funny once, lame twice and the number of times it's been said now, it's just plain stupid.

Does anyone know where the R34 GT-R is on the wall (if at all)? The big-boned dude drove it back in Season 1.

R34 is not on the wall, they only drove the R34 for a used car review, so no lap time either....sadly

R35 will be cool i think, mainly due to all the hype its been recieving, but no chance of sub-zero (where it really belongs)

That's right, Jason was remarking how the R32's brakes could "explode", apparently. :thumbsup:

the reason clarkson will say its uncool is because he will say that you have to explain it to people

eg "why does it look so ugly?"

"well that's because it was aerodynamically designed in a windtunnel"

"oh, right"

thus, uncool

obviously i think its cool otherwise i wouldn't be in here

quote jason

"a car for the playstation generation"

On the R35 at Fuji, it was great to hear Jeremy C saying something like "with all this technology you would expect it to feel numb but it doesn't, it feels mechanical... it feels bloody fantastic"

Good point, the explanation test... I fear on that basis it might fail terribly

Who is the new muse, after Jeremy found out that Kristen Scott Thomas had no taste?

He'll blast it as uncool.

"it's a cut price supercar, and does for supercars what a diesel does for ordinary cars - makes you look cheap"

or something along those lines.

haha

Sounds like you've somewhow read Wilman and Clarkson's script already

    • FWIW, I've aerated oil, and cams snapped. You can figure out the rest 🥲
    • Depending on the hose, sometimes engine out is the easiest option  
    • Get an inspection camera up there. 
    • Yeah, but look at the margin in viscosity between the 40 and the 60 at 125°C. It is not very large. It is the difference between 7 and 11 cP. Compare that to the viscosity at only 90°C. The viscosity axis is logarithmic. The numbers at 90 are ~15 and ~35. That is about half for the 40 wt oil and <half for the 60. You give up viscosity EXPONENTIALLY as temperature rises. Literally. That is why I declare thicker oil to be a bandaid, and a brittle one at that. Keep the oil temperature under about 110°C and you should be better off.   Having said all of that, which remains true as a general principle, if you have indeed lost enough oil from the sump that the pump was seeing slightly aerated oil, then all bets are off. That would of course cause oil pressure to collapse. And 35 psi is a collapse given what you were doing to the engine. Especially if the oil was that hot and viscosity had also collapsed. And I would put money on rod or main bearings being the source of the any noise that registered as knock. Hydraulic lifters should be able to cope with the hotter oil and lower pressure enough to prvent too much high frequency noise, although I am willing to admit it could be the source.
