  1. One of the few pics of my car I like...in the pits at PI
  2. Ever thought about doing a PS reservoir for an R32? I am powder coating my PS pump over xmas and getting it converted to banjos (provided I can get one with a large enough orifice and going full threaded lines and would be interested in going allow reservoir
  3. Well now I get to wear my Renault jacket with a little more pride
  4. Actually..you are right!
  5. Yeh, seems rather petulant. I mean Vettel does it and the team all smile and say "naughty boy" whilst grinning. They tell Webber to back off at Silverstone and he still gives it a nudge for a lap or two. The drivers are still out for themselves and not the team. I hate RBR now so fark them. As soon as Webber steps aside I will not give two sh1ts about what happens to them.
  6. As per above here is some footage of the old girl on song at Phillip Island.
  7. Thanks for the PM re airbox. I will take it. Can you let me know where you are located so I can suss out how to arrange collection
  8. So how is the tuning coming along? Do you know what was done in the way of matching combustion chamber to the bigger bore? Was the squish removed etc?
  9. It is sounding a little off at the moment. It has got an exhaust leak somewhere....will be mega pissed off if the 6boost manifold is warped or cracked. Everything is tight and looks ok so need to have a look over xmas
  10. Was watching Goodwood 2011 the other day and noticed just about every car was using a GoPro HD. So the footage seems good enough for a BBC production. Notice they use them on the handlebars of bikes etc on Top Gear as well. The audio is rubbish. We were using one on a rally car on the weekend and even in the car they simply pick up too much background noise, something to do with the frequency of that noise being recorded better then an 4cylinder pinned to the floor Must be some software out there to filter out the "noise"
  11. Yeh, the 4 door? I was the drunk out front of their place at 11pm Sunday night. I was looking it over when they saw me from their living room and one of them came out and chatted. They had a gearbox problem but got it all sorted and finished the event.
  12. Weather was horrible at the Alpine as well. We lost both our cars, one ate a tree and the other went head first roll over into a gorge Damage was freakishly small for the roll over (thanks to the soft brush it went into) but the tree eater will need some work/time.
  13. I still have NSW licence and have no problem registering the Skyline in Vic
  14. So all those with race seats can you do me a favour and go sit in them and throw a harness over and let me know where the harness opening in the back of the seat is relative to the top of your shoulders? Was at the Alpine Rally on the weekend and was speaking to a bunch of people and seems my problem is not a problem in the eyes of many
  15. Russ's car has a fair bit done to it and well sorted. Seems considerably quicker than mine .... with a quicker driver
  16. How did you find Monza? I thought the way the GP was run was hopeless. Wasnt great for spectating or easy to get around. And Milan was nowhere as much fun as say Budapest for nights out
  17. Told you Webber had in the bag. He is the bomb yoh
  18. How long you had the car for?
  19. Senna again hammered Petrov. Doesnt look right that Senna looks to be witthout a seat
  20. Its out of fluid so not leaking anymore Think its the input shaft seal. Yeh. Nit sure you get to use a lot of kerb at PI. Well at least my car didnt like it
  21. Yeh. Radiohead have some great chillout music. The new mounts arent in as the harness holes in my new Sparco seats are too low and the harness rides my shoulders too much. I may just mod my cage so harness angle and height is changed And the grip comes in part from a proper alignment and old AO50s hanging in there despite being warn. Last time I ran PI my alignment was way out due to faulty laser aligner and had poor grip. I had no idea just how bad it was until going back with the settings I thought I had. Still need another degree of camber now I have softer swaybars
  22. This is my first proper attemot at editing footage properly. Took forever but happy with it. http://m.youtube.com/?client=mv-google&rdm=4oox72m1r#/watch?v=LV-bcbzwrpg So much grip at present. Out of MG had uncanny amount of grip
  23. This is my first attempt at some clever editing http://m.youtube.com/?client=mv-google&rdm=4oox72m1r#/watch?v=LV-bcbzwrpg
  24. Is it DIY assemble or exchange?
  25. Yeh the RS500 manifold comes with ability to run 8 injectors and also runs a different elbow between plenum and throttle body. I am trying to hunt down the throttle body and elbow for mine now but cheapest I can find is $9-- Where are you sourcing gears for the oil pump?
