what a great drive.

also.

good thing these low noses have stopped cars from unnecessary flipping each other

this.

How the fcuk is Maldonado allowed to be here

It cant just be the money

and this.

and...watching the mercs run each other was good.

actually, seeing all the teams run against themselves was pretty good to see.

Mercs must be $1.01 to win WDC and WCC by now.

so maldanado now has a 5 grid penalty and 3 penalty points....

i understand the risk in pit lane for injury is higher for the workers having only helmets and also other members without....

and the safety of the cars is great, but i think dan getting 10 grid penalty and maldo only getting 5 is wrong

...but it did. When Dan pulled a nice move on Vettel then resisted Vettels attempts to get backl past whilst Dan was trying to get the job done on Hulk just in front of him. There was probably less than 2m between each of the three cars in breaking areas!

Ah ok. Will have a look when I get home.

Anyone know why the race wasnt on One last night?

So happy to start reading apologies from those saying Dan was the cop=out option for a safe no.2

ok, I'll admit it - Dan is a dangerous number 2! He very nearly ballsed it all up outbraking himself behind Kimi, locking it all up in a desperado up the inside... As the commentators said, good thing it was Kimi on the outside - the master of staying out of trouble. Otherwise it may well have ended as ingloriously as Maldonardo's little incident. :P

But he's driving very well otherwise. I'm impressed and surprised.

Cost cutting could bring us this gem.

I think that was the messiest move I have seen him do in the 3 years he has been in F1. Not a bad record, espeically when in the move on Kimi you cant help but think with his fresh tyres and pace part of the problem was just how slow Kimi was when he arrived at corner entry and Kimi was still there.

It appears Vettel's car hasnt been running in the sweet spot that Dan's car has so will be interesting mid season when the cars are free of those little dramas that rob one or the other of those tenths lap after lap how they go.

So far was impressed by Vettels maturity in letting Dan pass when ordered to. Actually was shocked he moved out of the way within a few corners

Everyone is saying it was a good race (i just finished my sky sports download) and honestly the safety car really saved it imo

its still a Merc white wash of a season much like ferrari and the early to mid 2000's. The battle at teh end was stellar though but without the safety car I think it would of been another dud bar a few small highlights.. Also perez is such a wank, doesnt fit in at all! I loved watching the merc boys shut him out whenever he tried to talk

    • 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?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
