The trend in road car motors is to small capacity turbos, hence the FIA's interest. But they are better off leaving them to the WRC & keep the atmo motors. The turbo motors cost huge coin.

But maybe (politely) you've missed the point- By mandating a formula that has some development relevance to mass-market manufacturers (i.e: hi-po small turbo 4's), the FIA actually encourages some involvement in F1 by volume manufacturers through tangible development benefits?

Euro V combined-cycle tests probably hold little relevance to ~800hp 19,000rpm limited N/A V8's...

wonder if hamilton has a list of all the drivers and is slowly ticking them off as he crashes into them? probably throws a dart at the list before each race and whoever it hits is who he runs into. i'm guessing that once he gets all the people on the list ticked off then he will clip the wall, have parts of his car come off and then run into them.

also reckon that webber will be 6th by the 2nd corner. will probably get as far back as about 8th, before then getting his shit together about 1/3 of the way into the race and then storming through the field to get onto, or close to, the podium.

or redbull will give him wings like last year......

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
