every sports betting agency now has RBR at $1.02 to take the constructors title. yay

and aren't i going to be back-pedalling like a mofo if Aussie Mark does actually clinch the drivers title...

It will be interesting to see how Ferrari fare for the last 3 races.

They are using their last engine and still have 3 races to go ....

i prognosticate we'll be seeing some scarlet cars towing voluminous clouds of bluish-white smoke along before we get through this season

So really MW must win at Korea to have a comfortable chance. Unfortunatly I can see vetool taking out the WDC and Webz retiring.

Wow. That's an impressive level of negativity. The RBRs have in fact shown extremely good reliability and Mark has proven he has the smarts to race hard without breaking his car. Yes, I know there was Valencia, but his rivals have also tripped over themselves. The difference is that Mark has been more consistent.

Mark is 14 points in front of Vetool and Alonso. What this means is that if Mark can finish second in two races, one of his rivals must win two races and score one point more than Mark in another. If Mark can win even one of the final three, he will almost have to DNF in one of the others to lose, as this will give him a 21 point lead, no matter where his rivals finish. To put it another way, if Mark wins in Korea, or either of the other two, he only needs two third places to win.

I can cut it all sorts of ways, but the truth is Mark Webber is in a very strong position. If he finishes on the podium in all three races, he will be nearly unbeatable.

Of course, a DNF changes everything, but for once Mark seems to have luck on his side.

Yeah, putting in a faster lap than Vetool ... how dare he. All must bow before the Almighty Blonde One!

I dont know how anyone in their right mind can go for Vettel, i feel like breaking his f**king finger everytime he gets somewhere he starts pointing it saying im number one. Yeh number one in dummy spits you freckle faced German flamin mongrel.

When are people gonna wake up, Vettel is not a good driver.

How can you say he is not a good driver? He has won 7-8 GPs! Dont let the fact that you dont like the guy cloud your judgement. I think at this point of their careers Mark is showing he is the more complete driver...but who knows if that will be enough for him to win this years WDC?!?!?!?!

Agreed.

Much as I loathe the little prick, I have to admit he has some talent. Give him a couple of years to develop some maturity and he might make a top notch driver.

Even over the last few races he seems to be settling down a bit, or maybe people have learnt to steer clear of him on the track.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
