it's been called that since he died. what should they have called it? i think you are pathetic for thinking that having a memorial trophy for the person who holds the record for number of wins is pathetic.

I'm going to use cold tyres as the excuse for everything that goes wrong life from here on.

Why did you lose traction at the rear? cold tyres

Why did you spin a bearing? cold tyres

Why did you forget to feed the kids? cold tyres

I like this idea.

They make it out like they have never driven on cold tyres before......Note they are all kids saying this....Cold tyres mustnt be modeled properly on Need for Speed

yeah. same as how the GTR fanbois would go on about how it took until last year to break the race record, despite the fact that the average lap done under race conditions has been much faster than the GTR for many years, just safety cars slowed the race down.

1080p coverage of bathurst, about bloody time!

Not happy with it though. I'm running the sound back through the home theatre system to take advantage of the "surround sound".It's most distracting. Not every camera angle has full sound, and the volume seems to vary with different cameras.

I ended up turning it off and just take the TV sound.

i just realised the trophy is called the Peter Brock trophy = PATHETIC its getting worse

Why wouldn't they call it the Brock trophy...

Love or hate the supercars, ford or Holden there is no disputing that Brock is an Aussie Motorsport icon.

I'm awaiting the comment about 2:08's being slow cause Sierra Sierra or cyber could probably do it in 2:06......

Waters into the wall, whoops.

lol yeah. they all like to talk about qualifying times but don't realise that the race laps done were about 6 or 8 seconds slower than qualifying times because they basically turned the engine into a grenade for qualifying. these days they are only about 1 or 2 seconds slower than qualifying laps. if you were to put the GTR that won back in 92 in todays race it would already have been lapped, probably 2 or 3 times.

hahaha yep

I laughing at my FB feed at the moment.

Lots of "omg holdens are so much better etc"

Im sitting here going wtf they are the same car you dickheads.

Even the Holden engine is a carbon copy of the D3 headed ford...only difference is the engine mounting posistions and intake manifold bolt holes

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
