Im watching Coulthards last race and it struck me that his helmet design is and always has been awesome. Original: Modified:

Why would Webber run light>? Maybe the car is just that good at Silverstone- Fingers crossed. I doubt its either a publicity stunt or a light fuel load but we shall see. I havent seen the ESPN coverage, i usually watch the "natural sounds" one coz then i dont have to listen to or understand anything the commentators have to say! All natural bebe.

Ummm, theyre everywhere in Tokyo.

Whoa, plenty of grit there. Im not looking to cash in on anything. Im looking for opportunities, thats basically it. I didt know the situation was up shit creek again with the government. How many times is that now in the last few years again...?

Ahahahaah, This is why Mark Webber is the best driver in the paddock/// Q: (Tomas Richtr - TV Nova) Mark, let's assume for a moment that you will stop a little bit earlier than the guys around you. Will it be difficult not to try to go too fast, not to over-drive the car in the first stint? MW: These days every lap is on the limit. We don't really pace the grands prix that much anymore. We go as flat out as often as we can. So I'm stopping on lap three and after that I will have a long race, so we will go from there. Rofl, pwn the shit outta that nosey journo, Webmeister.

If youre telling the truth, its daylight robbery... I go through all the shit of bringing the car in over the course of a year and someone thinks that because its the GTR, they can add 15k to their asking price despite the fact their job isnt any bloody different. Makes my blood boil. *waits for inevitable industry related backlashes*

They can be had for... nah, i shouldnt say what is easily researchable. Thats all i have to say apart from the fact im lining one up myself for the next private import. No red tape that way. Peace.

Iron chef, Ive pored over your website and pored over the stock you have and the cars that have been sold etc etc and i just have to ask, How serious are you about the Cube and more importantly, in what capacity can you import them because i may be interested in doing something with them from Tokyo. As you may well know, im a local here... And im always looking to back a winner.

f**k f**k f**k! What did i miss!?? *goes racing off to find racing-underground F1 files* Dont you bastards say a damned thing!

You go you good thing! Webber 2nd in Saturday free and streets ahead of Kovie in 3rd. I love seeing Webbers name pop up at the top of the timing sheets.

Who in their right minds wouldnt want to try this??

No, ofcourse not - why would he? Hes not driving a Mclaren anymore.

Massas stack was a little nasty. No one could have controlled that.

That was back in the day when driver were "Keepin in Reeeal" Senna was a classic.

I luvs youz guyz! But i love those ring chicks betterz

+1 I think hes talking about the JR pass? Or hes dreaming of naked sushi dining - one of the two.

Awww man, im totally sickened by the news Silverstone is losing the GP....to...Donington. Has anyone ever heard of that place? I do recall something about a long sweeping downhill righthander,... And thats about it. I swear i want to beat the shit out of the FIA and the FOA with this video. Too many people forget - Donington is a Silverstone wannabe

ROFLMFAO. Roy dont apologize - I was cringing as i read that. Who the f**k is Hammos press agent anyway>>>>??!!1! Seriously, thats just pathetic. If thats the way it turned out...well, I ...dont know what to say really... Good on Button for taking Hammo up on the pledge, and to DC for egging them on...but,,. i dunno...whats going through his head ATM... ..I got it... I think they need to get me in there to sort this out because obviously father and son just aint working.

You know, i think weve stumbled onto something. This forum is called "Skylines Australia" but its so plainly obvious that most who post here harbour no brand allegiance...except for posters like the aptly named "skyline man" - no surprises where the heart is on that one and im not complaining. The site is named after people such as that person. Honest. I have a Subaru. Its a Forester. Bored already? Yeah maybe, i know i sometimes am. The thing that keeps me from boredom is that, there are only 6 in Oz that i and others know of...because its the Sti version and in stock form does 5 second 0-100 kph times,12 odd second 0-400metre times - out of the box and that makes it something a little special... for an SUV. Should i make a song and a dance about its greatness? Is it great? Dunno, but It's alright for what it was intended to be! It is what it is and so is every other car. We make fun of the stuff that money was wasted on and enjoy, discuss, debate and argue the things that were are and will always be great. Now, about this NSX. Have you ever driven a type R? I have. You would only have had the chance here in Japan as luck would have it. What about the R34 GTR? done that too. And the new GTR? Yep and it was unspeakable. Unfortunately, ive never driven a Supra or even been in one... If i was to look at those 3 cars, the NSX was raw, definitely the most involving and symbiotic to the driver - i was fused to it, the R34 was taking anabolic steroids in a controlled environment and the R35? Well, It was impossible to understand. Completely stupefying. The NSX though, made me feel most in touch with what i was doing, i felt more in tune with the car - more a part of it and if i look at it that way, lap times, quarter mile times, 0-100 times dont mean a damned thing and render arguments useless because of one simple fact: It was just better - from a drivers perspective and from that perspective, involvement and feeling are everything. Stock for stock, the N1 may indeed shade the NSX in a race but i know which driver would be enjoying it more. With any R34 as opposed to any NSX you have always gotten the feeling you have to wrestle with the R34 to get it to do what you want it to, no matter the grade, year or spec. The GTR has always been designed to be man handled. Obviously, height, wheel base and kerb weight have a lot to do with it but why use that as an argument to take away from one of the NSX's many strengths? With the NSX, it complements you and compels you to find the finer points of what it has to offer - its that well balanced - and if youre skilled enough, itll reward you because of your input. The higher the level of your input, the more you are rewarded - at least thats how i felt after comparing the two. I know... driving cars does strange things to a guy... weird. It all comes back to this: Honda will surprise everyone in the coming years with the new gen/ Shame it will be out of this world expensive - somethings gotta pay for the F1 program somehow afterall!

farkin finally! Bloody well took their time didnt they?

*tags Doctor Death* ( a few seconds later ) *reaches for beer* gubgubgubgub.

Stock? Stock with nittos perhaps, lol. What is this Bung? Looks like a tag team now. Damnm, im cut above the left eye.

Its not an argument. The NSX is faster than any of the previous gen GTR's to 400 metres. The GTR was not faster over a 1/4 mile when stock and if youd read the previous posts you would have seen that was the point in contention. That and the fact the N1 was NOT a full volume factory production model but a stripped down, handbuilt special. Thats why, i have asked if anyone knows more about the N! and the more hardcore NSX R GT

Im aware the R34 was faster around a circuit but 0-400 times specifically is what im after. Its damn hard to find anything accurate even though proof has been shown of the NSX trouncing the R32, 33 and 34 in a 400 metre dash. Its hard to find data on the NSX - R quarter time and even harder to find GTR N1 times.///../ But, find em i will.

Mustve been driven by my nanna. whats this then? Nurburgring time : 7:56 mins
