Get him in there now and get RB out. Let Senna start off with Brawn right from the beginning.

Slow ass Button can develop the car and Senna can score some points and nudge some tyre barriers along the way.

I'd f*ck off Button and keep Rubens after last year... Plus Rubens and Brawn had a very good working relationship and many years operating with one another. I think under the current circumstances, that will be invaluable.. Also, Button drove like a droop last year.. Rubens did very well for with a crappy car, outscored and outdrove a much younger teammate.. I thikn that proves Rubens is still fit and has fire in the belly! :banana:

I agree, if i was going to give Senna a seat i woudl bin Jensen. He is paid more, through his many years with Honda has never really been able to click with the team and develop a crew or car around him. Rubens did more on occasion then Jensen though i think Jensen was at the end of the day was consistantly quicker, he just was never there to pick up the pieces and muscle the car up the grid when opportunities presented itself.

So i would take Rubens and the cash saving and sell of Jesen, thing is sponsors dont want to see two Brazilians in a team so...woudl never happen. Plus at the moment i think Senna is more name then capability

Hahaha heiki has been bottom of time charts all through testing, by the way button ended 4th in the monday barcalona testing after leading the whole day, we can't be negative of senna just yet, although I do feel that he is a better driver than some on the grid if it's not going to happen now then possibly within next few years, having seen some of his gp2 I'd say atleast give him a go for force India LOL

Also looks like the mclaren cars aren't doing that great in testing

    • From my bolts, standard M8 with 1.25mm thread pitch (M8x1.25mm).    Length is 19mm under the head and has a captive 18mm OD flat washer.   20mm length from a bolt shop is what you'll be able to get.   Make sure they're zinc plated.    If you're concerned about strength, grade 8.8 will be more than enough. Original PN is 01121-04971.  Now discontinued according to Amayama but that's because it's one of the parts that's been captured by the Heritage program, which explains the ridiculous price.   New PN is 01121-RHR20: https://nismodirect.com/nismo-heritage-bolt-pin-hinge-hood-bnr32-nissan-skyline-gt-r-01121-rhr20-01121-04971/ About AUD33 converted from Yen in the above link but that's just one example. Interesting that the hinge-to-body bolts are still available non-heritage.....PN 08116-8161G around $2 each (amayama).    Same thread but 16mm long.
    • Well, if that filter was impeding fluid flow, then it could have similar effects to faulty solenoids. The TCU will register a fault when it does something (ie, changes the state of a solenoid) and does not detect the required result. If there are other causes that can make the same lack of result, then they will be indistinguishable to the expected cause for which the TCU has a code.
    • Yellowjackets, red ones, blue ones (other than Splitfire) have all been demonstrated to be unreliable on turbo engines. That unreliability can be anything from outright failure (ie, 4 out of a set of 6 working out of the box) to just not being strong enough for the task, on a boosted engine. Not enough of us care about NA engines to know whether that unreliability is an issue for the undemanding needs of an NA RB20. I should think though that the DIS-008 should fit the 20. There's not really any reason for the head/coil mounting area to be any different on those 2 Neos. I wouldn't be buying Splitfires, or any other old tech coilpack, for a car in this day and age though. I would buy modern pencil coils and do what needs to be done to adapt them to the loom. That's relatively trivial these days, with numerous kits for fitting R35, or Audi, or Yaris/Corolla coils.
    • Keen to see how much work is needed to get an abandoned Skyline going. My R32 has been sitting idle for three years or so but finally got some time to get it going again. (Also lurking SAU and trying to hit 10 posts so I can start my own intro thread with pics)
    • Hi. Which coilpacks can i use in my engine? I looked at the Splitfire but the closest "match" i found was SP-DIS-008 but even that they do not show RB20DE NEO so iam not 100% sure. Or maybe different one which will 100% work? I saw many on ebay but they are some cheap "strange" ones. What about Yellow Jackets? Many thanks 🙂
