I was just watching the British F3 and Saloon Cars on SBS, and was wondering, where does everyone watch their motorsport?

The SBS programs are great, about 80% racing /20% talking....unlike the CH10 V8 Supertaxis that are the opposite :cheers:

Why cant there be a dedicated motorsport chanel? They could so easily fill ever hour of the week with motorsport from around the world. We miss out on so much here in australia.
:werd:

Due to moving out of home and not having access to Foxtel anymore, basically all my motorsport viewing comes courtesy of Ch10 (and Speedweek on the odd occassion). I cannot stand the Ch10 commentators though - other than Neil Crompton, none of them have a clue what they're talking about most of the time.

No wonder I enjoy the WRC and F1 telecasts...no Leigh Diffey commentary :)

I watch my motorsport live :O

well, when I can. on tha teevee I watch them all unless speedweek is on the same time as RPM in which case I give preference to watching speedweek and taping RPM so I can fast forward through the ads and crap.

:werd: RIchard, speedweek and ch10 (rpm/supercars) have been going head to head and speedweek gets my viewing.

The commentators suck there too (Auger/Pilkington) but there is at least twice the amount of racing on SBS

yep sunday afternoons. you never know when they'll have good stuff though. some episodes will just be f1power boats and drag racing. other weeks you'll get the europe Porsche Cup (which is awesome racing), brit f3, aus f3, prod cars etc etc and it's like all your television dreams have come true. :(

the euro porsche cup redefines door handle to door handle. they really go at it. and all so close in terms of pace, but yet plenty of passing, plenty of hard core-get-the-f**k-out-of-my-way moves. it really turns me on.

    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
