You can be damn sure that Walkinshaw won't be backward in coming forward in charging anyone for services rendered.

Question of the day: Who would win in a fight: Kim Jones or Tom Walkinshaw? Or Kim's "mate out the back"

ha ha Tom would drop soft ol' Kim like a sack of spuds (and his mate out the back) :D

Occasionally you see adverts in the Auto Fiction when BJR are looking for people. I always figured that if you listed your hobbies on your cv something like below you would be a shoe in:

Hobbies:

Fighting.

Arguing with my brother.

Watching Russell Crow movies.

My money is on the Jones boy - he is match fit....

Can't believe Holden is throwing any cash at BJR, they are nobodies, they'd be better off running in the Fujitsu category against teams of the same level.

Brad Jones should have retired his helmet and continue on as a commentator, that's the only time I don't mind his whining. Kim is just a sad sack and wouldn't even know how to smile if he won the lotto.

its nothin to do with match fit...Tom is a scottish street brawler from way back and the only thing soft ol Kim would feel would be that big shifter in the back of his head ha ha

I went to bed last night a happy bastard,,,Frosty putting the thing on poll and smashing prick Kelly's lap record.

Wake up this morning with the news that hes been excluded for cheating. Seems the ignition timing was 3 degrees outside the rules. I'm at a loss as to why there should be a rule on timing,,,I would have thought let them run what ever timing they want after all its their engines.

What is with these Ford teams always getting busted for cheating. Over the last couple of years almost all the top running Ford teams have done it. Some that come to mind:-

1/ SBR wire-gate

2/ SBR balaclava gate x 2

3/ Vodafone rear brakes gate

4/ FPR timing gate

and thats just 5 off the top of my head.

Yeah! Bignose is such a putz he took the wall and launched back into Frosty.

I think luck had nothing to do with it. Simply trying too hard at the wrong end of the event.

The talent at the front though was great to see. Fast, clean and despite the last round controversy last year Garth was a worthy race winner.

ok good luck with the new engine, I'm finally getting to a sports sedan round - always seem to miss them at the rounds i got to.

Todd Kelly has a nice new livery for the Bahrain round

Hopefully Brighty can sort his car out. Some people get all the bad luck

Exactly...Skaife is getting older and slower so he is continually pulling dumb moves in desperation

      Meh, maybe the JSAI ones are FG not CF. But, given that I'm not convinced any of these look any good, it hardly matters.

      Skyline Washer Nozzle Compatibility

      By nouveau_poor · Posted

      Got them in the other day. I can confirm the r33/r34 nozzles (B8K30-AA000) are the exact same. Hope this helps anyone else that comes looking for it

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Yeah, I should state I have no overheating issues except when it's sitting idle, with AC on (and only then) and only on VERY VERY hot days. And it stops if I turn the AC off. But I put a lot of effort into making this thing run like a regular car, I want the AC to work when I want it to work. I need no excuses as to why I should make some other thing a daily! And tbf, the thing does heat soak pretty bad, not much I can do with the exhaust running under the driver's seat, you can feel it through your shoes/pants when you step out of the car, too. Point being, aircon inside the cabin is on pretty frequently. I did think about removing heater hoses to simplify the engine bay/back of engine because I cannot imagine a scenario where I ever need a heater. Except for defogging, but doesn't AC do that, not the heater? So in this very limited situation, raising the rear could work, purely to let hot air out. I've ran the car at the track on a 35C day with the aircon on, and it doesn't overheat in that scenario so that's why I thought it was due to heat soak/heat buildup and not just general overheating under load. I had previously tried shrouding the radiator, changing my balancer to a non-underdriven one to spin the water pump more at idle too, and installing two more thermo fans on the other side of the radiator/AC condenser. (So I have 4 now, 2 pushing, 2 pulling from the rad) neither really helped in this very limited scenario. I don't know if the vents will, but visually seeing the heat steaming out of them did give me hope, not to mention the temperature of the vents was MUCH hotter than other areas of the bonnet. Enough that one of the paint guys was unsure as to whether paint would stick to it long term. I'm sure that will be fine also.

      My R32 GTR Restoration

      By ianp · Posted

      Its been a while since the last update, I've been collecting parts to overhaul the suspension - Most of the bits have arrived, theres still a few bits to come in the next few weeks and still to order I started by overhauling the ATTESA unit   I stripped it down, Cleaned the main unit and replaced all O-rings, bolts, Accumulator, Pressure Switch and painted a few bits   And done!   For anyone swapping the accumulator, a 3-inch socket makes life a hell of a lot easier   And a big pile of parts ready to go on, with more still to come over the next few weeks 😐
