The McLaren in civies looks ok...but not amazing. But, FARK ME it isnt the horniest piece of kit when in its war paint

Really? OK, I stand corrected. Everything I have ever read suggested that the RB26 and RB25 were the most responsive to cam gears, (a friend played with custom inlet cam gear on a NEO and got nothing from it...but an adjustable cam gear worked well on his exhaust side)...and RB20s respond well, but not as well as its bigger cc cousins. I have read that cam gears were a waste of time and money if you were running Poncams. But...can't say I have paid too much attention to it the last 5 years...it used to be a golden rule

Get some cam gears on there. No RB should be without cam gears!

Same but different ... very different

So nobody else finds it interesting that Liuzzi is standing behind the car? He was pretty vocal when he lost his seat. Seems he is still in the wings and involved in one shape or form

What is full boost? 15psi? Do you have cam gears?

Does anyone else notice anything odd in the back of this pic? Its a good looking car

If you have Z32 or R32 GTSt calipers, as std they run 280mm rotors. R33 GTS25T and R32 GTR calipers have longer lugs to suit the larger diam 296mm rotors so if you were to use those brackets with R32 GTR calipers then the fit would be an absolute abomination, like posted above they are more suited to a 337-340mm rotor

Hi, need some advice on brands. My car had central locking that was working fine but they are now flogged out after being incorrectly re-installed after side intrusion bars were recently welded in. Well, at least thats what I think it was as they no longer have enough grunt to fully stroke open and closed. So what is the best brand of solenoid. I just want to be sure that they stroke well and I can safeyl turn my back on the car knowing the doors are locked (The car is an old Ford Sierra) For instance...are these any good? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/BRAND-NEW-STRONG-UNIVERSAL-DOOR-ACTUATOR-MOTOR-CENTRAL-LOCKING-/170788799056?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item27c3ce4250#ht_699wt_1037

Just buy these.... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/385995-fs-330mm-big-brake-kit/page__p__6260824__hl__brake__fromsearch__1#entry6260824 $350 is a steal. By the time you mess around with someone machining them up and finding out they don't fit correctly blah, blah, blah...if they bolt on with simple cutting of backing plate then its a good deal. Many of the cheaper R33 kits are 3 piece brackets and that in my eyes is pretty nasty compared to the one piece UAS ones

Well, Vettel has had some work done over the off season. I hardly recognised him

I hope nothing expensive happened on Lap 22

So is there any difference in pressure or flow? Are Spool ones the same as what you are running?

Well done Dezz...you just earnt yourself a punch in the cock

I was joking, I have no idea where any of this stuff is made.

Will be interesting to see the difference. I only have road speed graphs which normally look ok ithrough the mid due to the shorter gearing and 17" wheels. This is my current one, running Plazmaman, 6boost and the difference is 98 and ARC cooler vs 100 and R34 GTR cooler. This gives you an idea of how much I lost with the Plazmaman and 6boost manifold LOL, so looking at the above graph you may start to understand why sometimes I seem like an argumentative bastard with looking to quantify results or asking questions. I have spent about 2k on manifold changes only to lose power and response and make the car more sensitive to ignition and detonation

Will be interesting to see what it makes at 18psi vs 20psi vs 22psi. (hint, hint )

Ok predictions! My 2c. From fastest to slowest teams for quali. RBR > McLaren > Lotus > Mercedes > Fezz > FI > Sauber. My prediction for top 3 in Quali : Vettel, Button & Webber Top 3 Race : Webber, Button & Kimi And of course real interested to see if Diso Dan hands it to the young Frog

They should line them up for a 5 lap race! That would be a spectacle. The Superlap thing can be quali But agree, with regards to entry the event certainly isnt for everyone. But as a punter it will be a good weekend/spectacle. I just hope the local lads can get some meaningful kms on their cars during the year and take it to the blow ins

Yeh, I will have trouble supporting Rick but I dont mind Tod and I have to say Greg Murphy is probably the only guy along with Lowndes currently running around that I like. So for the sake of Murphy I hope the Nissan move for Kelly Racing is a good thing

ARC...now made in China so we can actually turn a profit and keep the doors open

Maraussia...if it didnt have such a shit paint job it would actually be one of the better looking cars. I wonder if its front end has anything to do with their technical tie up with McLaren?

Was meant to pick up my car last weekend. Instead its still lounging around Sydney so going to miss this day as well

Meh, the RB20 couldnt spin the 25G compressor wheel let alone its rear wheels Must be something about being a white R33 and packing T51 grunt

LOL, I wish it had a brutal hit The car that I drove years ago that made me go TD06-20G was an 180SX Jap Drift car and it did come on harder then the RB20...but wasnt as brutal as say an RB25 with HKS 3040...that came on HARD! Re the low boost Honda. As a rough guide my thing makes 180rwks at 8psi. 225rwkws at 14psi and 260rwkws at 19psi...roughly. So they work ok at lower pressure ratios giving you a decent gain per psi even at low boost
