OK guys there seems a bit of interest so I'll start discussions with the machinist and see if I can get another run done. I'll post up details on timings expected.

Sweeeet,

That is good news mate, put me down for one.

I reciently hit a huge bump in the middle of the road and now it seems like my car is steering from the back. I think maybe its a toe in/out issue but it looks like I am going to need a wheel alignment in the back. Anyway I dont want to do this until I have the hicas replacment bar fitted...

would the steering from the back be a toe / camber issue after hitting a big bump with both rear wheels?

Sure sounds like a toe issue, or the rod ends could be buggered. Just got a set for the front of the auto as one is clunking. Get under and look for anything bent or with flaking areas.

im about to have mine removed by my tuner. v good price too considering custom machining of lock bars etc.

does anyone advocated for hicas in racing conditions... track days etc.!!!

i dont wana remove it for no reason my car has everything done to the suspension but this as it is setup for circuit avs suspension said it has had the most work done that he has seen on a street car. ? why has hicas been left??

You know I want one of those lock bars for my 33 aswell, so put me down on that little list you got going :P

Hope you can get something going again, I'd much rather throw some coin your way than go with the Tomei kit!!!

Come on lads, more interest hahah

    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
