  1. He's gonna drive it like a granny.
  2. You can't go wrong now.
  3. Yeah despite all the crap Massa cops with his poor wet weather showings, to copping a stray spring in the head, he is still driving the Ferrari so perhaps Nando's move is water off a ducks back. Although a team implosion has just shortened with the bookies. There is no fascination here with JB missus just the thought that he knows his life is never going to get better so he will doing his bit for debauchery while the going is good.
  4. Any pics of Jenson's missus the morning after?? I'm guessing she is walking like John Wayne (in his latter years).
  5. get a motel room will ya
  6. Really?? That has to be one of the biggest jokes since the $100m fine. The restart needs to be looked at in future whether they penalise Button or not. After Webber was poleaxed by Vettel after Hamiltons silly buggers (on the far right of the track off the racing line) in Japan they really need to be clear about driver conduct.
  7. Advantage faster car. Safety car FTW. We now have a sprint on our hands.
  8. Yeah but if he gets too cocky Webber can remind him that we beat the Germans at their national sport..... twice.
  9. ....and then Vettel nails the last sector. I'm off for a beer.
  10. spoke too soon, he has his rollerskates on now. The RBR cars don't seem to like the last sector as much.
  11. Vettel doesn't seem to have the setup right for some reason.
  12. RIPS RB30, neo head, 260 deg type b poncams, GT3076 56 trim comp, turbine housing 1.06 ext gated divided housing, divided merge collector manifold, front facing plenum.
  13. What are the Hi-Octane guys using? (I believe they are using the factory dumps).
  14. the upgrade pathway is pretty well covered in the forced induction section. simplest is a "hi-flow" of the factory turbo with all new CHRA wheels and machining in the factory housings. bolts back to all the factory gear in the factory location. then you have a choice of various aftermarket options from Garrett, HKS (rebranded Garrett turbos with HKS specific turbine housings), and then the less common Trust, Apexi, then a few others scattered in the upgrade basket. 3" bellmouth dump and 3" cat and 3" exhaust makes for one of the cheapest upgrades with the factory turbo and a whisker more boost. The difference in performance between bellmouth and split dumps is debateable but back to back I have seen more power from a bellmouth on a 420hp turbo so based on cost alone the bellmouth makes more sense. Given the issues with boost control some end users have with split dumps then I would stick with the bellmouth. ps. The factory turbo on the RB25DET is not a garrett unit. RB26 are garrett turbos.
  15. i bet it leaks at idle
  16. The original is a ball bearing hitachi afaik. Ceramic turbine. Why?
  17. You can ask but will they hand over a smoking gun??
  18. RS4S has a fork bottom not an eyelet on the rear just in case you aren't aware.
  19. I would look for one with bluetooth capability as it kills two birds with one stone on the mobile phone front and if it is Iphone compatible it will let you bluetooth the Ipod function to the HU (if you have one). I installed a Kenwood unit into the Stagea and Mrs Wolv is happy that is syncs up when she gets in the car and she good to go, no charging up separate BT units. No doubt other manufacturers have similar units out there for between $250 - $400
  20. Less km's on the speedo......hmm Might be a bit of fun to check what km's were on it at auction.
  21. It makes it harder for sure the 040 is rated at 102L/hr @ 6.5bar the 044 is rated at 200L/hr @ 5bar
