Kā aprēķina tilpumu

Oranžais ir tilpums.


Kopējais tilpums = ( π / 4 ) * (cil.iekš.diametrs ^ 2) * virzuļa gājiens * cilindru skaits

Callaway GTV6 Twin Turbo (ouch)

Thirty examples were built between 1983 and 1986. In addition to numerous small component upgrades, the Callaway GTVs included a much revised suspension, larger brakes and a twin-turbocharger system, boosting performance to near-exotic levels.

The car's performance caught the attention of Dave McLellan, Chief Engineer of the Corvette, and would lead to the Callaway-Corvette association it became famous for.

In the first of two runs on the Salt Lake Flats in California last month, the remarkable 7.0 litre, 1800 BHP Keating TKR smashed the current record, adding an extra 3 mph to the top speed of existing title holder, the Shelby Aero TT. Now the Manchester based company must do it again to ensure entry in the Guinness Book of World Records.

Douglas Adams

Douglas Adams (1952 - 2001)
An English humorist and a science fiction novelist

A man of abundant skills, Douglas Noel Adams also known by his initials as DNA was a comic radio dramatist, a novelist and a musician. Widely known for being the author of Hitchikker’s Guide To Galaxy, some of his other works include The Restaurant At The End of the universe and The Long Dark Tea Time Of The Soul. He was also an active environmentalist and campaigned for the protection of a number of endangered species. He had a profound interest in technology which justifies his being associated with the widely popular game Starship Titanic. He also had a passion for music which is reflected in all his works.

Here are some of the quotes and quotations written by Douglas Adams :

I think fish is nice, but then I think that rain is wet, so who am I to judge?
Douglas Adams

In order to fly, all one must do is simply miss the ground.
Douglas Adams

Arthur hoped and prayed that there wasn't an afterlife. Then he realised there was a contradiction there and merely hoped that there wasn't an afterlife.
Douglas Adams

Human beings, who are almost unique in having the ability to learn from the experience of others, are also remarkable for their apparent disinclination to do so.
Douglas Adams

Flying is learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.
Douglas Adams

Humans are not proud of their ancestors, and rarely invite them round to dinner.
Douglas Adams

For a moment, nothing happened.Then, after a second or so, nothing continued to happen.
Douglas Adams

He felt that his whole life was some kind of dream and he sometimes wondered whose it was and whether they were enjoying it.
Douglas Adams

If somebody thinks they're a hedgehog, presumably you just give 'em a mirror and a few pictures of hedgehogs and tell them to sort it out for themselves.
Douglas Adams

I'm spending a year dead for tax reasons.
Douglas Adams

He inched his way up the corridor as if he would rather be yarding his way down it.
Douglas Adams

He shifted his weight from foot to foot, but it was equally uncomfortable on each.
Douglas Adams

There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.There is another theory which states that this has already happened.
Douglas Adams

He was a dreamer, a thinker, a speculative philosopher... or, as his wife would have it, an idiot.
Douglas Adams

A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.
Douglas Adams

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.
Douglas Adams

Anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.
Douglas Adams

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be.
Douglas Adams

He hoped and prayed that there wasn't an afterlife. Then he realized there was a contradiction involved here and merely hoped that there wasn't an afterlife.
Douglas Adams

I seldom end up where I wanted to go, but almost always end up where I need to be.
Douglas Adams

Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?
Douglas Adams

His study was a total mess, like the results of an explosion in a public library.
Douglas Adams

It is a mistake to think you can solve any major problems just with potatoes.
Douglas Adams

If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands.
Douglas Adams

It is a well-known fact that those people who must want to rule people are, ipso facto, those least suited to do it... anyone who is capable of getting themselves made President should on no account be allowed to do the job.
Douglas Adams

Life is wasted on the living.
Douglas Adams

That young girl is one of the least benightedly unintelligent organic life forms it has been my profound lack of pleasure not to be able to avoid meeting.
Douglas Adams

I don't believe it. Prove it to me and I still won't believe it.
Douglas Adams

Life... is like a grapefruit. It's orange and squishy, and has a few pips in it, and some folks have half a one for breakfast.
Douglas Adams

Many men of course became extremely rich, but this was perfectly natural and nothing to be ashamed of because no one was really poor, at least no one worth speaking of.
Douglas Adams

The moment at which two people, approaching from opposite ends of a long passageway, recognize each other and immediately pretend they haven t. This is to avoid the ghastly embarrassment of having to continue recognizing each other the whole length of the corridor.
Douglas Adams

Space is big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it's a long way down the road to the drug store, but that's just peanuts to space.
Douglas Adams

I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.
Douglas Adams

The difficulty with this conversation is that it's very different from most of the ones I've had of late. Which, as I explained, have mostly been with trees.
Douglas Adams

The Guide is definitive. Reality is frequently inaccurate.
Douglas Adams

The impossible often has a kind of integrity which the merely improbable lacks.
Douglas Adams

The knack of flying is learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.
Douglas Adams

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at and repair.
Douglas Adams

The mere thought hadn't even begun to speculate about the merest possibility of crossing my mind.
Douglas Adams

Watch?? I'm gonna pray, Man! Know any good religions?
Douglas Adams

The ships hung in the sky in much the same way that bricks don't.
Douglas Adams

There is a theory which states that if ever for any reason anyone discovers what exactly the Universe is for and why it is here it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another that states that this has already happened.
Douglas Adams

This must be Thursday. I never could get the hang of Thursdays.
Douglas Adams

Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.
Douglas Adams

To give real service you must add something which cannot be bought or measured with money, and that is sincerity and integrity.
Douglas Adams

We demand rigidly defined areas of doubt and uncertainty!
Douglas Adams

We have normality. I repeat, we have normality. Anything you still can't cope with is therefore your own problem.
Douglas Adams

It is a rare mind indeed that can render the hitherto non-existent blindingly obvious. The cry 'I could have thought of that' is a very popular and misleading one, for the fact is that they didn't, and a very significant and revealing fact it is too.
Douglas Adams

You live and learn. At any rate, you live.

I cleaned up all the contacts behind the fusebox (didn't find any grounds) and my tach is alive. It still reads about 300rpm low at 3000 but that should be easy to adjust when I get the chance.

I did my own electronic, stripped out the orginal pod, mounted a 75ts tach in the pod with original fascia & needle. Use the white wire from the ignition coil packs for the signal.
Easy ! No not really it took a lot of fiddling, but works.

I believe the LHD Milano is a lot easier to access than my old RHD 75TS. It was a bugger of a job to say the least. Also, be careful probing down the vents with a vac as you might damage the VERY EXPOSED and FRAGILE wires on the resistor pack.

If you do commit to pulling the dash apart, build a small cage to go over the resistors in addition to screening the plenum inlet for the ventilation system. This will allow subsequent probing with the aforementioned vac.

I also took the time to:
1. replace all the foam sealing on the flappers,
2. replace the seals on the heater matrix pipes,
3. clean all the crud from the heater and aircon matices, plus a lot of mud/dirt lazing at the bottom of both,
4. replace a U/S recirc flap actuator.


PM me if you'd like a hazy pic of the screen I made for the TS plenmum inlet.

JD: Transakselim

"Lai nāk lietus un nomazgā no transakeļa visus vecos pīšļus, visas sliktās atmiņas, sāpes un vilšanās. Tad, lai saule nāk un piepilda transakseli ar varavīksnēm, lai saules gaisma dziedē visas rētas, lai tā nodedzina visās eļļas un pleķus, lai varam saskatīt viens otru... aci pret aci. Es un mans transaxelis... Ļauj man tevī raudzīties bez aizspriedumiem, atmetot visus stereotipus, piepildi mani ar apskaidrību, ō transakseli... Ļauj lai saules siltie stari atspīd no tevis... manā paštaisnumā un sīkstumā, palīdzi pārvarēt naidu manī, lai varu tev kalpot un tevi kopt...Lai varam kopā izdzīvot priekus un dalīt pārējo detaļu bēdas... Mirdzi tik spožs savā cēlumā, lai spētu apspīdēt visas daļas sev apkārt, lai viss auto pakaļgals līksmo ar tevi, smeļās spēku un iedvesmu.... amen"

75Experience Driving School (R&T)

Sir Edmund Hillary needed to climb Everest "because it's there," and the same can be said for every racing junkie about "The Green Hell."

"Hell"? Think 13 miles, dozens of corners, 1000 ft. in elevation change and a hotly debated number of annual fatalities among those brave enough to tackle it. Online fan forums mention anything from five to 50.

One day, I woke up and decided the Nordschleife had been there for too long. Enter a rental Opel Corsa and a €124 ticket worth eight laps of fun at the Ring, the world's most challenging toll road.

A mundane booth grants access to the "north loop," the circuit. The gate opens as soon as the ticket is inserted: You're on your own, pal, no questions asked. Just be aware that, in case of hitting the Armco, the bill will run €1300 per meter.

Too many hours spent playing Gran Turismo meant I knew (most of) my way around, but the corners are so blind and fast that conjuring the huevos to truly scare myself was not possible. Plus, the Corsa was slow as a dog.

Enter Ron Simons, owner of 75Experience, the de facto official Nordschleife driving school. It holds the largest collection of Alfa Romeo 75s in the world, and one look at the Alfa's boxy shape immediately explains why.

But get over the looks: A very capable, lightweight racing machine hides underneath, courtesy of rear-wheel drive, a rear-mounted transaxle and a torquey V-6 that can be massaged to nearly 300 horses, all sounding as Italian as Pavarotti.

These traits and sheer age make the Alfa an ideal Ring car: "It's got no ABS, no ESP, no TC — no BS," grins Simons, who's covered over 20,000 Nordschleife laps in his life.

The 75Experience's basic €575 program buys you four outings: one riding shotgun in Simons' own Alfa and three driving a trio of race-prepped 75s on distinct performance plateaus, from a nearly-stock 4-cylinder up to a V-6-powered one with a full racing suspension and semi-slick tires.

On my first lap, Simons points to tire tracks going seven feet up the hill on the inside of the Exmühle corner, a fast right-hander that morphs from a downhill slope to a steep climb at the apex. "Those were left by a 911 yesterday," he reveals. "Notice how it's all new Armco around this turn."

Worrying words as I strap in for my first laps.

As soon as I turn the ignition, a full-house of warning lights flash on the blocky 1980s' dash — including ones for parts you'd really like to trust. Like brakes. I tell Simons there might be something wrong with the car.

"That's how it is," he replies on the radio. "If all lights go off, then it's a problem." And people wonder why Alfa failed stateside...

This would've been a good time to panic were it not for the school's biggest coup: Simons always drives his own car ahead of the student while simultaneously radioing instructions. As a result, even Ring rookies like me are quickly able to truly attack corners.

Thus, students with some racing experience see their confidence levels grow exponentially with each completed lap. When I finally climb aboard the full-on V-6 Alfa, powerful enough to bother some of the rats, I'm already feeling like Gabriele Tarquini.

Taking the downhill portion of the Flugplatz section, a tricked-out Evo blasts by on my left, courtesy of its power advantage. On the next complex of corners at Adenauer-Forst, however, Simons' knowledge allows me to bridge the gap and move past the Mitsu, and then, after the tricky Metzgesfeld and Kallenhard sequences, lose him completely. Indescribable satisfaction.

Boosted, I start to push Simons, who increases his rhythm to accommodate my newfound élan. When we reach the approach to the Exmühle climb, I downshift the Alfa and floor the throttle to keep momentum up the steep hill; the rear end snaps violently and the 75 steers toward the inside, ready to add its own tire tracks to that mountain-climbing 911's. Owing nothing to talent, I'm miraculously able to serve a spoonful of opposite lock to correct the mistake.

Simons can't help himself: "That, my friend, is what we call snap oversteer," the radio barks.

At the end of the day I had logged 14 laps around The Green Hell and emerged mostly unscathed, physically and financially. If 100 laps are indeed the minimum before one can claim to know the Nordschleife, I can't wait to get my remaining 86.

klaas: [..]I ended up buying AZEV's 16 X 7,5 ET ET's 25 front, 20 rear with 205/45 tires. Spedometer is smack on with this size, checked it with Tomtom!! [..]

alfaholic75: [..]Also with regards to the offset if you retain the standard 30mm offset thefront will look ok but the book will look like it sits way to far in the arch. therefore after several sets of wheels with different offsets you want to have 2 wheels at 98pcd with a 28mm offset and 2 with a 98pcd and a 25mm offset and these wil sit in your arch perfectly and look right.[..]
