  1. I really want an Exige but part of me wants a new, reluable and practical yet fun car. This fits the bill
  2. So anyone looking at the '16 relase of the Focus RS? 55k on road for 345hp and AWD is decent value. Onlt downside is colour range or lack of
  3. Yes, still for sale

  8. UK builds are always interesting.....the average garage tinkerer always seem to do great work much like the Kiwis!
  9. Fuel flow restrictions are the main reason they dont rev that hard. Also the torque means they dont have to rev as hard combined with the restriction to amount of engines they are allowed to run...all means only turn yhem up when racing for position/ as necessary
  10. Wow...since the 2009 seasons F1 there has ony been 4 new race winners. Webber, Disco Dan, Pastor and Rosberg Outside of those new entries its been the same old Rubens, Vettel, Homo, Alonso, Button and Kimi. The decade 2000 – 2009 saw 14 new winners representing 10 different teams, of whom two – Lewis Hamilton and Juan-Pablo Montoya – took victory in their debut seasons. Alonso, Button, Rosberg, Hamilton, Raikkonen and Vettel made their F1 debuts aged 22 or younger winning 104 of the 115 GPs since 2010. Those other 11 race winners are: - 3 Disco Dan - 1 Pasta - 7 Webber Pretty depressing when you look at the pool of talent F1 teams currently have. Sauber and Marussia have dial a racers driving but the rest of the grid has genuine talent/race winning potential (err lets just leave Pasta out of this...) I cant see 2016 bring more variety. Perhaps Mercedes can do a McLaren and turn a race winning car into a dog for half a season
  11. Personally i wouldnt he constraining the manifold to the box. Sure support the weight off the head but if you constrain the dump then when e erything gets hot you woll be forcing it to grow in the opposite direction. Best support the weight then give it freedom to grow in whatever direction it chooses
  12. Bump. To make this work on your RB20 all you need is: http://justjap.com/engine/exhaust/jjr-mild-steel-3-bellmouth-front-dump-pipe-skyline-r32-r33-gts-t-stagea-rb25.html http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Kinugawa-Turbo-Turbine-Housing-Nissan-Skyline-RB20DET-RB25DET-8cm-TD05H-T3-/291642390416?hash=item43e73db790 http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Kinugawa-Adjustable-Turbo-Actuator-3-Cover-TD05-TD06-w-T3-3-Bolt-V-Band-/291651193869?hash=item43e7c40c0d Or if you want it for an RB25 that is mega punchy on the street then http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Kinugawa-Turbo-Turbine-Housing-Nissan-Skyline-RB20DET-RB25DET-10cm-TD05H-T3-/272081824713?hash=item3f59572bc9 If people are worried about piecing it all together I will source it all and trial fit on my car before sending...
  13. Does anyone know if Lotus is being rebranded Renault this season or doing its final season as Lotus?
  14. Have you got the heat shields that go with the 34 dumps?
  15. Will take $800 plus delivery. Lol good to flog these off to cover sump for new engine
  16. New year bump...keen to free up some cash
  17. Just get on with it and book tickets.
  18. Le Mans was cheaper then any F1 ticket i have bought and a waaay better spectacle. I am going next year. I gave promised myself i will go to every 2-3 years its such a fun trip to a good part of the world
  19. Fark me...now BBC has walked from F1
  20. No free to air definitely hurts. Lack of money to teams and circuits hurts. Freezing the most influential aspect of car performance is retarded Free up engine development...limit teams to four floor and wing combos per year and CVC take a sane amount of miney each year and invest in their business. Pretty simple really. I dont think the engines or rules are that far away.
  21. A few people have been asking for more recent pictures
  22. I so want to listen to it and rag on him...but meh....better things to be doing....like building an R32 of extraordinary magnitude
  23. Louise copping loads in the face off his boyfriends Harry...
  24. LOL, i stated an opinion... Say what you want about temp ratings. I am not arguing as I have no idea what their temp ratings are. My gripe is I don't like the pedal feel and they require a load of pedal effort. Best analogy is wooden. My comment "I do loathe EBS green, red and yellow pads. Some like them but i think for track they are actually a rather rubbish performing pad, with poor feel to boot. But they are cheap and perfectly fine i guess for a spirited street car You say we run lots of cars..do you work at a brake place? Where? Not being a smart ass but have you driven similar cars with different pads to actually compare how they feel and perform with.
