I'd put the boost gauge on the top steering column cover, so its more in the line of sight.

Or maybe if your worried about your oil pressure at the track, if its got a warning light in the gauge, having it front and centre would be easier to get your attention.

yeah i think its a toss up between oil pressure and boost.

i'm going to have relays set up to kill engine if oil pressure is lost. tho this might be dangerous for track work... so might have to look into that for sure.

and when all 6 black face defi's + controler are sold for $1000 who wouldnt pass up that offer! (L) yahoo japan!

haha I have a mamoth amount of gauges on the way, I've got to ditch the factory triple gauges and install a 3 gauge DIN to get them all in. They're defi quality, have the link system as well, but damn don't cost anything like the defi's :rofl:

Also I may or may not be a local supplier of said gauges :(

exhuast temp..

if your saying its hooked up to your cat..

and im saying put it else were as in a nice style glovebox install etc

aircon/stock gauge's in glove box.

was going to be mounted somewhere visible

more leaning towards boost. now. its fun to watch but probably distracting too.

    • 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.
