I remember when Kris first got his car to 280kw, became the biggest douche in history.

feeling alright atm, just got back from a ride and tested gopro out, so dark through the hills hahaha

edit: I'm sure ill feel my legs tomorrow don't you worry child

lol I could have told you GoPro wouldn't pick up anything. Bring it on saturday...

Thursday's got a curse for you...

Wind, road surface, suspension settings...lots of things. It originates from the front tyre though. Something about the front tyre oscillating on the turning plane, starting small and amplifying very quickly into a wobble with little warning. Steering dampers come factory on a lot of supersports to reduce or prevent it.

Also called a tank slapper because the handlebars literally go from full lock left to right, sometimes contacting the fuel tank.

hmmmmm..... you learn something new everyday. :merli:

It's a cruiser though...so comfortable and economical rather than sports position and quick...

Will still do 140 with enough road...not that I've tested this :D

how do u stop it mid wobble.

they take an aston martin, lexus lfa and viper to drag strip in america. Race against modified cars, one being a modified evo 7/8?

sigh... so what was the outcome...not that it matters as all top gear challanges are 100% staged...

I gues what i mean is which trip were they on this time?

the "nothing is as good as an overpriced itallian supercar trip?

the "look how a cheap car with a few mods can be faster than a supercar but it's just not somfortable enough to live with trip?

or the "look at how japan is trying to take on the euro cars, sure it's faster in all aspects but we are still going to say the euro is the better choice trip?

how do u stop it mid wobble.

crashing seems to be the usual method

Why all the hate for Top Gear?

The cars look and sound amazing... I don't give a crap if the reviews are bias etc, I'm not going to be buying a supercar in the next decade anyway...

I find them teh funny and their trips to africa / vietnam / south america are awesome :)

Why all the hate for Top Gear?

because it's season 11ty billion and every episode is just the same 3 guys having the same whinge about the new models of the same cars

It may be just me, but I don't give a crap about the cars that they show/review... If you want to see BAD top gear, then watch Top Gear Australia or Top Gear America :P They actually tried to replace the three guys, yet keep the exact same kind of banter... It's so robotic it's gag worthy...

    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
