its home to probably the best corner on the calender

and which is that?

My favourite would have to be the 4 corners joined in the sphincter of the universe (I think) that the RBRs could run flat out. Exciting if it's done right, easy to do wrong.

ah well, woulda been better if the RBR's finished ahead of the Mclarens in terms of making the WDC even more interesting :(

keeps things spiced up at least.

edit: meanwhile, you think if Webber got a similarly veiled message he would "understand" it?

Eau Rouge is all that and more. It's had some epic accidents and overtakes over the years. Compared to Eau Rouge, Turn 8 can suck it

I think he'd suffer 'radio failure'

i sat at turn 8, and its pretty epic dude

they scream around it and you cant believe how sharp those corners acctually are

its maximum commitment for at least 6 seconds, very impressive stuff

Have you also sat at Eau Rouge? I'd like to hear a comparison from someone who's seen both.

I'm not denying Turn 8 is a great corner, but I stand by my claim that Eau Rogue is more spectacular to watch and a bigger challenge for the drivers.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Appreciate the feedback. It is street car, but not a daily. Last week I got a quote from a good exhaust shop for a decat, one which is bolt-on, bolt-off to be easily replaceable. I got quoted for around €150. I usually do push the motor, but I wasn't in this case to make sure that no damage is done until I get the cat sorted. I think it's best to also ask the exhaust shop for the other option and see what they can do. If (big if) I were to decat though, would it be best to tune the car or would the stock ECU handle it? As far as I know, the stock ECU is not tunable and that would require additional purchases.

      As above, definitely bash it or get it replaced with a high flow unit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Right, its been a while for updating this car, but I made some small but important progress today. In the end I bought an Ecutek dongle from the Australian distributor Tunehouse (for local hardware support) but have gone with a remote tune from Racebox in the US (because they have done millions of these, and I could not find any tuner where I could access the tune anyway as they are all password locked). The App is reasonably easy to work with, but the PC software reminds me of Haltech's ECU Manager that you need to use with the Plat Pro ECUs, it is a nightmare.  Anyway, I sent the details over, got back a tune file and a request for data logs. I finally got a chance to access a private test track today as they want redline logs in 3rd and 4th, and have sent them back for the first round of reviews. The main difference in the tune is going from 1.0 (stock) to 1.3 bar (19psi), although I'm sure is a lot of other stuff in the background. Keeping in mind this is a dead stock car with 125,000klm, this is what the App's performance test claimed: Before After Interesting to note that both 400m tests had the same terminal speed (158klm/h) but different ETs. And no, the speed limiter seems to be higher than that at 186kl/h. Summary of the key logged parameters for the 3rd and 4th gear runs were: Those little turbos were certainly whizzing at 200,000rpm+.  Also I'm really not that excited about oil pressure 55psi at redline so I think I'll go thicker than 5w30 (nissan recommend 0w20....) and see if that improves it. Other than that (and the big boost spike....) everything looks good as a start to me.
