  1. LOL who would have thought that a little our beat up R32 GTR skyline would make the advertisement for the FIA GT final round. But No the mighty Skyline GTR's are back http://www.dubaiautodrome.com/general/content.aspx?id=1388
  2. Anyone tried these Nitto invo tyres, going to try them out this weekend but any info would be good.
  3. lol just like 20mm mades a big diff in the package stakes Cheers BB just measured they wheels on the car and they do have 20mm diff in fact the difference between the largest and smallest was 32mm, although they were on different sides. I dont remember having any issues with the 4wd system flashing at me or lighting up. Worth a try i think.
  4. ta for that. Looks like a 285x35x18 is 2062mm and a 245x40x18 is 2052mm So 285 mich pilot sport on rear and 245 bridgestone re55s on the front So about 5 minutes with the 4WD fuse pulled and they will be about the same :-)
  5. hmmm bugga! looks like i will out with the tape measure checking out some different profiles then. still its quite strange that less then 1 mm of tread wear will get you about 20mm of circum difference. Which should happen with normal wear between front and rear. I think a 245 x 45 x 18 will be close to a 285 x 35 x 18
  6. Guys, Quick question about having difference wheel circumfence between back and front wheels! Is 20mm diff too much and will it upset the 4WD system? I would think that 20mm would be like a set of new boots on the front and used on the rear.
  7. Renault have been pinged as well for having Mclaren info
  8. You could alright to BB if you bring several grillion dollars in to the team coffers. And i reckon his left front wheel man has a total different view on it as well :-)
  9. Hmmmmmm sell my soul for my monthly salary of #$%# all, work for a scotish boss and drive a HP puter every day sell my soul for my yearly salary and indorsments of millions, work for a frenchman, finish behind Kimi and drive a ferarri F1 car HELL YER waiting for mr Todt to call anytime
  10. Ideally you should have the oil temps close to the water temp again this will be effected by fitted oil coolers and power output etc on different cars. have to say that 100 seems a bit high for cruising but i have found the factory gauge to not be all the acurate. still 100 is not damaging the oil i believe mineral based oil starts to break down around 125 again depending on the quality of the oil. But again 90 is better than 100, how dark is the oil when changed? I may be wrong but oil pumps are positive displacement gear pumps so really shouldnt be an issue with a standard pump or after market, unless there is to much restriction in the cooler you use, resulting in oil pressure drop. and thats a bad bad thing! I run 3 coolers on a standard pump ( well i think it is ) and had no issues yet, long may it continue.
  11. Whoo Hoo paint it orange, union rebel flag on the roof and i will run moonshine with ya yee har!
  12. Ye Gods, homer simpson in an Aussie toga in Japan .....i can see cult status on the horizon
  13. Is the car for road use only? if so there is a wealth of info, type in brake pads into the search and it will give you a starting point.
  14. big chuckle meself as well. Not only that the plastic nascars ( speed cars ) were faster than all the V8 super taxis first time out. not sure if the 5 ex F1 boys made the diff but. It was truly a ford race i dont really care much one way or another but the difference between the cars at the moment is vast. Also big thumbs up to Shane Price great bloke, had him in our pit garage looking over the SR3 radical. Got lots of insight into the V8 world.
  15. LOL i was speaking to a baraini gent on thursday, who is about 100% sure he will end up in the renault.
  16. jinxed my little ginger ring! mate that falcon was so fast today he just streeted them in the first race by a mile. They really have to look at the difference between the cars it was just a non event for anyone driving a holden.
  17. Believe noltec and whiteline are working together now
  18. see it everyday here you would not believe the driving over here
  19. going to the bahrain round tonight whoo hoo
  20. LOL here we go again. Not the best pic but it is a banked corner at 16 degrees. I did purchase neg 5 degree cusco upper arms or so the package said? Still it was just a mixed and matched set of suspenssion componants and car was to low and body roll was at an all time high. going to correct that and be free of understeer forever :-) and yep damn pesky GT2 porker they are quick and light, handle well look good, cost grillions, chick magnet and i am going to spank it next time out
  21. Yep i have the same problem so going to try a little more agressive settings, different shocks, different bars, 350mm hight in front 340mm in rear. And if that dont work another pilot. King of understeer signing out.
  22. blocked fuel filter easy place to start
  23. any oil pressure problem or readings before it locked up. Not sure spun bearings tend to heal very well so strange that it started again with no knocking anyway best of luck
  24. I have the LM1 with data logging and i cant fault it
  25. will be lots of fast cars looking forward to it. And dont worry madam whiplash there is a silver lining in every cloudand seeing that your sponored viper isnt coming to the meeting that means you can sponsor me
