I wonder if the best alternative method to waiting for time to lapse would be to measure effectiveness after a certain number of heat/cold cycles for each lubricant. Time in one region may not affect the lubricant's properties as much as time in another (i.e. California's more temperate climate...

This topic deserves a "Project Farm" style comparison test of the various window lubricants. :) I'm planning on going through the windows and doors again this Winter. IMHO, I'd gladly suffer a fractionally slower window if it means I can delay the window adjustment process for as long as possible.

Received the Gates Pencil Type Tension Tester, #7401-0076, this evening and headed straight to the garage. Took a quick measurement of the distance from the top of the alternator pulley to the bottom of the harmonic balancer, picked the midpoint, and measured deflection from there. With the...

No problem. No argument here. The damper's press fit wasn't bad per se (it went on smoothly though took a while because of how long it takes to make a ⅛ turn each time) but it certainly wasn't the two seconds like it took to take the stock version off. I was more concerned about proper...

Thanks - hope it helps.

Sure. I'll revise post and PM you with PayPal info.

Loosen the alternator bolts, adjust the alternator belt tensioner, remove crank bolt, remove pulley, install shield..and then put everything back together.

ITBs are the best intake. ;)

Submitted as an additional reference point for removal of the OE harmonic balancer and installation of the first gen NSX specific ATI Super Damper. I wanted to do this myself and learn. There are things I would have done differently so maybe you can learn from my experience for your...

SALE PENDING Bought this years ago and removed the pulley to install an ATI Super Damper, which makes the shield unnecessary. Save some $ and buy this piece to save your engine in case your pulley comes apart. Only $50 + shipping. From the ScienceofSpeed website: "...Crankshaft pulley shield...

It wasn't a good look and it seems literally everyone doesn't see how MV wouldn't let Sergislow gain the position back. It seems like a trivial decision and immature act. But drivers in F1 have always had a difficult time begrudgingly giving up position or compiling with team orders. Remember...

Haha...was almost positive he was going to do something. Did you see Tim Cook's checkered flag wave? Yikes.

Not if the beam pivot is held by a compliance clamp, which is a popular modification for those tracking their NSX.

Wow, that extended RB pit stop for Verstappen sure made it interesting. I thought for sure Latifi was going to crash on the last few laps.

Sheesh. The 2023 tire test session, which should have been FP2, was stupid boring. Those test sessions should be separate from the normal race schedule.

Did someone say TE37?!

I've had the Comptech Pro on my car for years and years and years and love them. You may have to line up a kidney transplant on the street, even a bumpy track, but on the track they're amazing providing they have enough tire. I run Falken 660s in 235/40-17 and 285/30-18 sizes and bladed sways...

Some early reports state that the overspend was from misclassifying costs pertaining to catering, daily free meals for RB employees, and the mis-categorization of absent staff that are sick. If true or even if not, I'm fairly certain the penalty will include a fine and maybe something like a...

Subscribed. Interested in how this performs.

I wouldn't be too hard on him. He's 24 and mistakes like that are to be expected from time to time. If the team was smart, they'd use the experience to improve his driving and help him mature. But if this was really a driver mistake, he doesn't have a whole lot of leverage to lecture the team...

I was really impressed with the marshals around the Monaco track...and even more impressed with how well (seemingly) the ACM treated them. Heck, even Prince Albert went around the track and shook hands with every single one of them. Maybe it's an organizational culture or national culture...

Saw that. Good for him. It wouldn't surprise me if the FIA motivated him with a "Golden Parachute" to move on from the organization. Thinking that "toto, it's called a motor race" would be a good t-shirt.

That was fun to watch. Glad Zhou is ok because that crash looked horrific. Don't ever remember an F1 car flipping like that. Wish Russell was able to continue. He showed considerable class to someone that was involved in the same crash. From what I've read, Max's car's floor had debris damage...

Nice! CGP was my first F1 race entirely (2000). Schuey won from pole with a bit of controversy on McLaren side as David Cardboard had work done to his car a few seconds before the race. This was before the race was broadcast in the host country's language and English so we had to rely on a kind...
