dammit. i was hoping for a hamilton style smoking for senna.

i got a hundred on hamilton not even making the top 3 in the WDC this year. too much pressure, too much expectation, too many other good drivers...

good bet i reckon, he nearly threw it away for the second year running if it wasnt for Glock moving over for him. Hamilton is yet to win a championship convinceingly. tough season to come for him.

Now they can go back to doing what they do best- being an engine supplier only

Instead of running a busted-arse race team

Either that or get the Richards/Willis combo running it again... Remember when J. Button was best of the rest in 2004? I'm sure these lads know how to run a team! Barichello/Senna & Button in a Prodrive Honda.... MMmmmmm! :)

I'd say the pressure is on him more than ever.. To win the championship convincingly... Loosing position to an inferior Toro Rosso a few laps from the end isn't all that convincing... I say that he drove wonderfully most of the season, and in China he drove as he needed to, level headed, aggressive and fast without going nucking futs.. Brazil on the other hand, he was off the boil, badly.. Then there was Japan... Red mist anyone???

his best has come and gone, time to get some new guys in

ah yeah, for sure- just thought you might have harboured some specific grudge against him

just like Webber, He'll certainly never have a WDC to his name

the v8s ran last year. it was the first time in a while but they were definately there. so id say there is a good chance of seeing the R35, they did a parade last year which had the Bugatti Vayron in it, should have heard that thing.

Are V8's on the schedule for Melbourne? They weren't last year!

Will be interesting to see how Kimi goes after his WC hang over last year, testing looking good already for the red team

Rubens proved he still had it... He out drove and out scored Button this year... Doesn't sound like much of a 'has-been' performance to me....

doesn't say much for Button, does it?

who are they both driving for respectively this year?

good bet i reckon, he nearly threw it away for the second year running if it wasnt for Glock moving over for him. Hamilton is yet to win a championship convinceingly. tough season to come for him.

Lol, if glock didnt stay out on the wrong tyres he wouldnt have even been there for hamilton to pass easily on the right tyres

    • 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 🙂
