ive done this - well for no reason the boot buckled causing one side of the spoiler to almost detach. Soooo undid all the bolts i could see holding the spoiler on then came the good stuff - trying to prise the sealant apart without scratching you boot or damaging the wing - it takes patience :D

If anyone has those pads that some people have between the spoiler and the boot, and doesn't really want them, I would gladly take them off your hands...

Thats the only part of the car that rattles with bassy music...

I'd love to finally get rid of that thing as its quite noticeable from inside...

Anyone know what I am talking about or can help ?

Hey.. i dont know if this is what would help you, but a friend of mine and myself fixed his whole front bar(LARGE veilside bar which was half hanging off a swift gti and vibrated stupidly) by using rolls of stick on foam/felt. U can get this stuff from say clark rubber or autobarn, or even a hardware store.

U stick this between anything that might vibrate before u put everything together, it worked really well for us..

siksII - I was thinking of something like that for ages now...

The only thing that stopped me was trying to get the wing off...always afraid I'd rip the paint off the boot...

after reading this thread I am tempted to try it...

gonna take the bolts off and lightly lift to see what happens...

    • 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.
