Sounds like I got lucky.

I had to take my 4yo daughter out yesterday morning so I put the race on record and when I got home (about 1pm) I watched the whole race in 2x speed and skipped the commercial breaks. By doing that I had actually caught back up to "live" with 6 laps to go!

:P

Was a great way to watch it!

I did a similar thing... started watching from 9:30am the coverage from 7am and skipped all the repeated segments from fri/sat then caught up to the race, then did some stuff around the house went out n had lunch then caught up again with about 30 laps to go.

I have no problems with the commentators except for Mathew White. The other guys do joke abit but they know alot of technical stuff that you wouldn't get from people like Greg Rust or Daryl Beattie.

I actually think Ch7's technical insights are pretty good, it helps explain tech to folks who don't know, and saves us who do know the pain of trying to explain tech to them without looking like a know all. lol

I don't like 7 having presenters who don't know shit, but it doesn't worry me for the rest of the year, because Bathurst is the only time I watch the V8's.

Thing that pisses me off about the commentators is they are wearing RACE SUITS !!! WTF ???

And in general have no idea what they are talking about, So spew rubbish comments.

    • Hi guys, I’m new to the GTR scene. Picked up an R33 GTR earlier this year that needs a lot of love. I’ve been going through the hot side, changing all the gaskets and while it was all off I managed to score a set of -9s. It still had the stock ceramics so I was pretty happy to get the 2860s.  I live in a small country in the pacific with 0 performance car scene. No dyno’s no performance parts, let alone stock parts for a skyline. I order everything from Australia and do it myself. This means I’ll be running the stock ECU. Maybe down the track I’ll get an aftermarket set up and do a remote tune.  Will the car run -9s on stock tune safely?  I have a very heavy foot so I really hope so 😂   thanks guys   
    • perfect, no rush to address the leaking bush then, it's not doing much/anything
    • I'm not sure if it will bolt up, but.... I'm reasonably sure that the ID of the runners is somewhat smaller on the NAs. So it probably wouldn't be a good match at the flange where the top and bottom meet. So that would be a reason to not do it. And the skinny runners would be the bit you're keeping, which would be a reason to no do it. You'd want the big runners if you were doing any work to swap stuff. Why not just use what you've got, like nearly everyone else who has +T'd an NA? You don't need or want the TCS throttle or other stuff that is specifically DET inlet/crossover.
    • lol already been put in temporarily 3 years ago
    • Makes sense. For actuators, if the pressure itself isn't adjustable, that would mean I'd need to think about 2 different actuators with 2 different pressures on paper in order for them to work at the same time if the turbos behave differently. So measure the difference in psi needed to move both, and then get an actuator to match that difference. Assuming I cant get rid of it by adjusting the arms.  You're exactly right, never happens in gear 1 or 2. I can occasionally get it in gear 3 if going uphill but its very small. Only ever in 4 and 5. Seems kind of backwards that one of the points of VCAM is faster spool but if it introduces shuffle then it actually slows spool down.
