is the 787B really that hard to drive? how is it compared to the Minolta? love those things...and def going to buy the 787B soon anyways. its the Formula cars i have troubles with atm....esp with 1 buggered wrist.

not really, if you turn your tracion control off you just need a bit of throttle control. the sound of the 787B is worth the money.

straight lap, no slipstream at all

in front from the first turn, then crank out the last 4 laps +/- 0.2 sec of each other

I'd be very surprised if anyone can run sub 41.7 without some kind of draft trickiness

You gott be slupstreaming. I'm using the same car and i'm 2 seconds off you time

I am using a driving force GT, which probably helps.

car makes 904hp. my gearing and aero set-up results in an average speed of 347km/h for that lap time

lvl, and winning and loosing is irrelevant from what ive seen, if anything the lowbies get more money and XP just for being amongst the higher lvl drivers. will add you tonight beerbaron.

ive been thinking about buying a Fezza F1 car before the seasonals close...but am unsure if its worth it. anyone know what the prize money is for winning them?? or how hard it is. the Formula GT is the hardest car to drive well (other than the X2010). i guess i just dont wanna buy it just to find out the money is far to little....or realize i cant win in it anyways and totally wasted my money. :(

hey mate, i've done the F1 seasonal now. they range between 150,000 and 200,000 for first place. I think it's worth it. they are pretty cool to drive and you need to stay pretty focussed and have fairly good reactions but they are by no means un-drivable. they are actually pretty fun. :)

and yeah the 787 is a widow maker!!! it's 5X harder to drive fast than the F1 car for sure.

Hey I added you, I've shared my F2007 Ferrari so you can do the Seasonal event :)

thanks mate. :) muchos gracias. feel free to ask for anything cool you want. my garage is a bit thin, but the 787B has to be heard to be believed, the R35 GT500 car and the Maclaren F1 GTR are pretty horny too.

Guys. You win the Fezza 2007 when your bobs complete all of the endurance races

lol, I only have 1 bspec driver and he's a massive level 2.... long time before I get my own 07 fezz I think!

Don't know if anyone's done this, but I started a new B-spec driver yesty and put him into a Nür 24hr as his first race, just to see what level he'd come out at.

From his 1/4 share of 3.7mil xp, he went straight to class 31

yeah i did them over the weekend too. good fun to drive and alot easier than the X2010 redbull thingy. bought a 787B...but havent driven it yet.

Cool pics there man. ive played with the photo mode a bit too. will post em up as soon as i remember :)

rofl. nice one! would love to try it but only have one b-spec driver and he's currently level 2. need someone to add me to some remote races.... :ermm:

I'm still doing the F1 challenges in my borrowed ferrari. trying to earn some cash while I can as being not very far along in the game $$ is hard to come by.

you'll like the 787B. just the sound it makes is pretty horny. especially it's grumpy idle. it's a handful to drive though without any aids.... I'd rate it harder to punt than the F1 cars. probably harder than the X2010 too as sure the X2010 is faster but it's heaps lighter and has mega aero and mechanical grip.

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
