MASSIVE MCLAREN POINTS HAUL!!! :D

what a great race. really entertaining. lol at Webber dori to lose a position on lap 55

sux that there's a 3 week wait until the European races now :'( , then again it may take that long to get all the gear back there...

Yeh, hackness ruled today!

Shame to see McLaren get penalised post races. Hamo will be in trouble for pit in and out. Restart punting Webber. ...and Button for the re-start...if deemed to have done something wrong then they should have done it during the race...post race rulings suck!

Hamo driving like a brat is kind of growing on me...its good for a laugh. Its almost as though i cant wait to see what he will try next GP....he shoudl not be allowed to start in the Top 6...or so i have decided!

His goofness paif back Webber for the Australian incident

I didn't really see what JB did wrong? He is obviously allowed to bunch the field, without any excessive braking or accelerating, which he seemed to brake consistently into the hairpin to bunch up the field.

Also looks like MSC will this year just be an "also ran" IMO.

And i dont think Webber had too bad a race. Sur ehe went backwards, but he got off the line well....was leading the race when most decided to go for tyres....he went mid field..he was a few laps earlier on teh new tyre call which got him in front of Schuey, Massa etc and up behind Vettel...a position he was only in because he got punted by Hamilton on the restart :D

and Schuey was pretty ordinary today.....i wonder if in a few races his neck is going to cause a few problems and quick Nick step in :)

I am not familiar with the FIA rules, but CAMS rules specifically prohibit bunching up the field prior to the restart. As we saw today it is extremely dangerous, with cars 4 wide into a corner when they are meant to be single file according to the rules.

oh hells yeah :D

Yup he was talking to the main comentators on a different channel, was quite funny some of his comments "just add water".

The few laps of racing between Hamilton and Schuey about mid race was quite funny, that's the only time i've seen anyone try and drive Hamilton off the track (instead of Hamilton driving others off the track when he completes an overtaking move).

As said above, Red Bull will lose this season themselves!

was a good race....allll over the shoppee. hamilton is a little brat. and theres only soo long that will fly for. loved the pit lane races between vet and ham, and the alonzo and massa (team push and shove ftw) albeit a little dangerous for the bystanding pit crews. last thing we need is reduced pit speeds after an incident.

poor old webber, he really has the worst of luck.

    • 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 🙂
