was watching top gear on tv last night and they had coulthard farking around in a 05 RBR car and man they look and sound great. I do miss the old V10 days. they were a sweet engine. The car looked great too. the cars look a bit cheap these days by comparison. :cool:

Probably old news to most now, but the other night I watched an Autocar vid where Chris Harris drove an '06 Red Bull at Silverstone and reckoned it would waste a Veyron with only 1/5 throttle. First time he really gets on it he says "it makes the Buggatti feel like a Mazda 2!"

if you can turn passenger laps in that thing for $99 count me in.

in other news I will be in europe later this year and currently deciding between Spa (end of aug) or Monza (early sept). Monza will be easiest as it already tees up with some plans and I'll be in italy at the time. But Spa is just another level all together but it would mean having to reschedule things a bit and mean going to belgium which is a bit of a punishment really. lol. anyone seen "In Bruge"? lol.

currently leaning towards monza. it will be cool to see all the tifosi out in force. I wonder if any of them still have love for schumacher?

on the plus side if I do monza it means before it I can scoot over to germany and get some laps in on the nurburgring. yeah baby!

oh, and I've just made the choice. fark watching at spa. I'd rather fang something around the 'ring instead. I may even forget going to the monza gp too and use the money for another day of ring and then just watch it in a bar in italy somewhere.

very excited about doing the ring. just need to decide what to drive?

    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
    • thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...
    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
