was watching top gear on tv last night and they had coulthard farking around in a 05 RBR car and man they look and sound great. I do miss the old V10 days. they were a sweet engine. The car looked great too. the cars look a bit cheap these days by comparison. :cool:

Probably old news to most now, but the other night I watched an Autocar vid where Chris Harris drove an '06 Red Bull at Silverstone and reckoned it would waste a Veyron with only 1/5 throttle. First time he really gets on it he says "it makes the Buggatti feel like a Mazda 2!"

Just got woken up to a V8 supertaxi tearing round the track.

Noticed that Nando said in the last couple of days that he prefers to wait and see with these new rules. I somewhat agree with him.

if you can turn passenger laps in that thing for $99 count me in.

in other news I will be in europe later this year and currently deciding between Spa (end of aug) or Monza (early sept). Monza will be easiest as it already tees up with some plans and I'll be in italy at the time. But Spa is just another level all together but it would mean having to reschedule things a bit and mean going to belgium which is a bit of a punishment really. lol. anyone seen "In Bruge"? lol.

currently leaning towards monza. it will be cool to see all the tifosi out in force. I wonder if any of them still have love for schumacher?

on the plus side if I do monza it means before it I can scoot over to germany and get some laps in on the nurburgring. yeah baby!

oh, and I've just made the choice. fark watching at spa. I'd rather fang something around the 'ring instead. I may even forget going to the monza gp too and use the money for another day of ring and then just watch it in a bar in italy somewhere.

very excited about doing the ring. just need to decide what to drive?

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
