Maybe they should have kept the dodgy Pirelli compounds for this and refuelling ... Exciting race my ass

The tyres haven't changed yet - they're aiming for Canada or British GP. Its just that track doesn't have any real long/high load corners to f**k the tyres in the space of a few laps. And you can drive as slow as you want, just about, without fear of being passed by everyone. I thought all the slow corners might hurt Mercedes rear tyres under power, but that's not their problem apparently.

Anyone who has ever watched Monaco before knows what to expect in terms of the racing. Absolutely no sense complaining about that.

I don't agree Perez was in the wrong in any of those moves - certainly not the one where Kimi ran him into the armco before the corner!

And he was more than fully up alongside Alonso and made the turn-in to the corner no problem whatsover. When someone has you up the inside like that and there's no room to fight it - sorry, you've lost the position. Even if you are Alonso and even if you are in a Ferrari.

Just when you thought that the tyres were the worst thing in F1 along comes a safety car period that just will not end despite Massa's car being cleared ages ago.

they needed to use microscopes and tweezers to collect every sliver of shattered carbon-fibre

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
