Mercedes GP are to contimue supplying engines to the various team upto 2015, but are selling/have sold their 40% share of Mclaren.

Roseberg has hit the jackpot, Heidfeld makes a lucky escape yet again

If button doest get his Mac seat, he's well and truely fcukd

... bye kimi, was great while it lasted

75% share...just on the news here in the UK. Will be interesting who they sign. Talk is it will e be the German superteam of Heidfeld and Rosberg....but if Mercedes want Vettel over Heidfeld i can see them paying lots of money to RBR allowing them to afford Kimi.

How good is it that I find this out via Al-Jazeera.....

Got to love extremists and their die hard attitude for F1

TATA Motors inbound and Button with Louise at Mac-Homo.

I can also see a slide down the grid for Team GB already.

Kimi at RBR with Webber!

Shaun, it isn't called the silly season for nothing.

Heidlfeld part of a German superteam? He is a chance of limping in for some finishes when the cards fall the right way.

Rosberg finally gets his shot which is good for him but without Vettel they are hardly the best German pairing.

I wonder what Haug meant by a few surprises, Can RBR really be interested in Merc engines, enough to swap Vettel and a wad of cash whereby affording Kimi? The more i think about the more i want it to be true! I ddi read that RBR even thought no announcement has been made have continued with the design of next years car around the Renault V8

Absolutely they still need to be designed around an engine. Dont forget the Brawn was one of th emost sensitive on the gri to overheating, i recall two races where they were turning the engine down due to temps and one of those races they hacked away at side pods on race day to get better cooling,

Also, the engine you run influences the gearbox you are most likely going to end up running which means the hydraulics are going to be different etc etc...so you want to get the engine in the back of the car ASAP, especialy in the current era of F2 whn hundredths of a second matter

I aware of that and I'm not insinuating that's it's as simple as just dropping different engines into different chassis', but I think with modern F1 cars where the engine is part of the chassis it's maybe not as difficult as it once was..... Obviously the earlier they have a confirmed chassis/engine combo the easier the deal is for all designers and engineers

top three guys in the top three teams, with red bull the dark horse

Whoever partners hammo will be pretty hard team to stop

Brawn/Mercedes with Roseberg will be a contender for sure

Nando will be like a pitpull off a leash at team jihad after 2 years in the sin bin

Vettel and webber to pick up steady podiums

the 2010 n00bs are in for a tough season. points looks very hard to come by now

    • Could someone post some pictures of the factory Jack , tools, spare tire and how they were in a 1998 ER34 2 door skyline originally?
    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their proven reliability, predictable performance, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
