Ye the McLaren is clearly the faster car at this point.

Lots of work for the teams now and will be interesting to see what happens in Malaysia. Although don't expect much improvements for a few rounds i would think

Except maybe Ferrari. The engineers were very open about their expectation of not being super competitive with the brand new car, so 5th is a stellar effort and should improve

Jenson has come a long way and deserves every bit of the success he is currently achieving, all the while having a good attitude.

Webber looks alot more comfortable this year.

Hopefully Vettel manages to find the sand trap more often.

Schumacher looking good.

Quite a good start to the season.

If Webber can't have it, would like to see Button go for a second WDC.

Cool story bro etc.

I'm not entirely convinced that Ferrari are ahead of the Torro/Williams/Sauber pack.

And I think it's because they are closer to the pack more so than Ferrari are further behind.

The race pace of Pasta was impressive - he had several mid race fastest laps and fastest sector times. Always at the top of the Speed traps too. It'd have been real interesting to see what pace he could have run at if he'd found a way past Alonzo. Real shame he binned it.

But was good for F1's to see the Williams so competitive though. Hope they can keep it up.

What would have been real interesting is an old head in the Williams. I cant help but wonder if Rubens would have got a great result for the team yesterday. A top 4 finish. I dont think Rubens will always be the better bet, but in the more chaotic races where you just have to keep punting and watch those fall off the track, Rubens has always been able to come through, especially in the lowly Honda days.

But I think Senna and Pastor are solid enough that if they are really any good they will raise to the occasion. Feelk sprry for Pastor yesterday but it was a 1st year Rookie mistake... he better not make too many more of them in 2012. Not if the Williams is as quick as it looks

We need Massa back at the front crashing into Hamilton to make sure the WCC is at least interesting this year :P

Loved how loose a lot of the cars are and am really hoping that there are a couple of wet races this year to really sort the men out from the boys.

Seems the stewards this year are going to allow a bit of biff and barge which should make it interesting.

narh, i doubt Ruben would've made a difference, he is well and truly past his use by date.

even tho i love schumacher, but sadly, i say the same to him as well.

Shame we arent using the same F1 predictions game from last year, already one round in and the other one was way more fun.

yeah the one lastyear was better, we can win prizes on this one tho and we're currently in 10th

i forgot to put all my tips in. lol

loads of catching up to do!

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
