Dont't know if its been mentioned here before, but I heard a disappointing rumour on Monday that TEN is moving F1 off the HD One channel and moving it back to chl 10 :( It will still be live but I'm pi$$ed that it won't be in HD.

Apparently now the packers have a stake they are moving all sport off of one to make foxtel the place to be for HD sport broadcast :rant:

Not that most of us seem to watch the One broadcast now, but what I said above seemed to be confirmed last night :( Pretty sure I caught one of the One team mention that the next race will be on channel 10 not OneHD.

The hosts must be frustrated as well. I mean the amount of breaks and rubbish they have to present. The are car nuts as well and bet their hands are tied. Its such a crock that they dont just do a 3min intro and then go to BBC or Sky coverage for the WHOLE event, pre and post race as well as practice and quali sessions. But Channel 10 are failing in all ratings and cant help but think a clown is calling the shots over there

I actually like watching most of it on OneHD, as it is HD.

Have skynet running, but big screen f1 is better than small screen better coverage.

I loved the fact DRS didn't really work here this year. We had a good old fashioned fair dinkum race, and it was a corker. Pretty much proves we don't need the artificial DRS passing to make F1 good.

I think the smart money is on Hamilton winning the WDC this year, even with the competitive nature of 5 or 6 teams the fact is Mclaren appear to be consistently faster, assuming Rosberg doesn't steal the show again...

i think button will be the more consistent of the 2 mclaren drivers this year. if hamo does happen to get a good run, i think he will fold under the pressure. that is assuming he doesn't find someone to replace massa as his dodgem car buddy.

Don't see Niko being too much of a wdc threat. Honestly, webber will be more of a feature this year, this years tyres seem to suit him much more than his teammate

yeah webber is adapting better.

the groups CFO must be devastated

that's equiv of police fining me 5¢ and no points for running red lights :laugh:

they probably just went and raided the ash tray of the transport truck to pay the fine.

Problem though - it wont be HD if it ends up on 10

God damn greedy media moguls, Australia ripped once again

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
