They didnt mention the car being an import or a high performance car, nor did they mention the drivers being young...

Therefore it must have been a ford laser filled with old ladies on their way home from the bingo hall...

See it just does not get the medias full attention does it...!!!

NOTE: Take my post with a gain of salt...

I saw a VT wrapped around a pole on Tuesday lunch time on the corner of Days & Lutwyche Roads...

It was a lady in her 30's and she was attending her daughter in the back of the car while driving at 60kph...

She could have gone through the front of the shops on that corner and killed people... Lucky there was a pole there, maby now they will put up a crash barrier... It made the news also, as the camera crews were there when i drove past...

Anyway this has nothing to do with this topic, but i felt like sharing anyway... :(

They reakon he was doing 100.

And Duporth Ave is confusing - it appears to be a 60 zone but it is infact a 50 zone. I used to live on it.

there was nothing left of the car, i reckon he was doing more than 100...police have no need to talk it up though, it wasnt a young person driving, nor was it a modified/import car. Most of duporth is unmarked and a built up area, therefor a 50 zone.

There was something left of the car.

It looked nowhere near as bad as the crash a few weeks ago in mountain creek. I'd put it at 120 tops - plus, where he crashed gave him about 100-150m of acceleration space if the newspaper was correct in identifying where he crashed (By the christian center).

it's being fixed again, not a total write off.

but with the guy who hit the pole on duporth, it just goes to prove that u dont have to be 17 and own a high powered sports car to be a fool behind the wheel, i hope the police take notice of the facts that he was 30 and owned a family sedan.... then maybe they can start picking on the ppl who deserve it.

the sunshine coast daily article in regards to this was a joke. The police were winging about young ppl in fast cars, amongst other things about educating young drivers etc. It really did p*ss me off. I do agree with a lot of the things in regards to young ppl in fast cars and under educated drivers but if anything this only proves exactly what you have just said..you dont have to be 17 and in a high peformance car to have a crash and cause a fatality. Maybe the police should take a look at whats really going on and realise this too!

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
