This was my dream drive when i was 6 years old. My dad was working at Repco then and used to bring home heaps of stickers and posters for me.

Still love the look even today. Would be an Awesome track car today. I just want one BAD. :P

It is a very pretty car.

how much money does proton have? i'd like to see lotus return

http://www.autoblog.com/2009/09/07/report-...ber-return-lot/

As much as I miss Lotus not being in Formula one - it isn't really Lotus anymore, is it? Malaysian money backing a German team doesn't have much to do with CBAC does it?

In retrospect how badly did Ford stuff up backing Stewart & letting Lotus die in the 90's? Money spent on a Lotus Ford would have paid far greater dividends than that wasted on Stewart then Jaguar.

he is just proving what a spoilt little bitch he is! :P

My issue isnt with the team telling him to crash (i cant believe that they ddi, i just done get it) but the fact that d1ckless hack agreed to do it. Is he retarded as well as slow? If they told hm to do it then he is the biggest joke of a driver to come through the F1 ranks in my recent memory. If its not true he is the most pathetic individual i have ever seen in the sporting arena for throwing a fictional hissy fit at ex-team.

Its not like he was like Bourdais and there abouts and was a call that could be debated, but agreed was the right call. He was SLOW, and CRASHED and was getting worse, not better.!

Take the family name and jam it up their precious a55holes!!!!!!!!!!

phew....feel better now :(

The full statement.

http://www.grandprix.com/ns/ns21798.html

Either way another massive hit for F1. If true given McLaren's 100million fine, what the fark do you do with Renault?

As much as I want to believe it's crap, its hard to ignore that it all actually happened in that Alonso had just enough fuel to go to teh crash.

I can't see Renault hanging around.

Some are saying it's ballsy of him to make the statement, but then what does he have to lose?

Shame he only developed a conscience once he had no hope of another f1 seat.

The excuses he puts up are pathetic imho. From his Official Website:

"I believe without doubt in my talent and my performance. I didn't get this far by getting bad results. Anyone who knows my history knows that the results I am having in F1 do not match my CV and my ability. The conditions I have had to deal with during the last two years have been very strange to say the least there are incidents that I can hardly believe occurred myself. If I now need to give explanations, I am certain it is because of the unfair situation I have been in the past two years. I always believed that having a manager was being a part of a team and having a partner. A manager is supposed to encourage you, support you, and provide you with opportunities. In my case it was the opposite. Flavio Briatore was my executioner"

Shame he feels this *unfair situation* justifies him putting other drivers, officials and spectators' safety at risk.

the comparison shot they show you through the chicanes is great

the ferraris and red bulls arent riding the kerbs well at all

But the Mclaren looks, Cheat-tastic as it leaves the track !

Doesn't it ?

They changed the height of the kerbs to define the track confines !

After Hamo's failure to grasp them last year.

I would expect penalty's for any constant leaping of kerbs this weekend.

And possibly damaged cars for the foolhardy.

Go force india!

V J deserves the win for being such a gentleman in a pool of sharks.

cheers cokey

Yeah- with the least fuel, he's going to have to drive balls-out to the first stop to build a decent margin back to 2nd place. Here's hoping there's no safety car intervention in the first stint.

No doubt he'll arrive at the first corner still P1 if he gets a good launch, like he has done most races, but Sutil is just gunna get smoked by the 2 KERS cars behind him during the drag race down to Rettifilo.

Hamilton, Räikkönen, Kovalainen should be the order after the first chicane.

    • 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 reliability is proven, performance can be predictable, 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?
    • Hi all! Looking to relocate the battery to the trunk of an R34 GTT. I want to do it using as many stock GTR components as I can (including the harness protectors from the 34 GTR that run underneath along the chassis to the engine bay). So far I’ve purchased the battery tray from a 33 GTR, as the captive weld nuts are already there just asking to be used. There is also the slight issue of now having to relocate the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU, which in GTT’s sits right above where the battery will then sit on the tray. Has anyone already achieved this, and if you have any pics that you wouldn’t mind sharing? It would be great to see how others have done it and where you put them, as there are countless holes in the parcel shelf panel to potentially use. Just trying to get some ideas bounced around, and to help uncover any potential problems I may encounter by  my choice of location. TIA for any help!
