Thanks for the replies all.

I have been around to a few yards and just by talking to them you get to know what they are on about.

There are a few yards I would NEVER go back to, ever again.

At least Tuff Toys have been open, honest and upfront with costs, times and viewing the car. (I have not driven it, nor do I want to, yet)

Heck, some yards I went to did not even bother talking to me. (Yup, I'll go to the yard in T-Shirt, shorts and thongs)

Thats how I have bought 12 or so brand new cars (And our house) If they treat me right, I will buy a car from them, if not, they just lost a cash paying customer!

So far the folks at Tuff Toys have been decent to me and the wife.

The only thing the wife is a little worried about is warrenty on a $40,000 Skyline.

PS: For all those who have offered me in private their own cars, thankyou for your time. (The wife has decided she likes this car, and all those who are married will know that when your partner puts her foot down concerning cars, it's final.)

Besides, who would argue about a R34, black with only 10,000 kays on the clock? (And yes, looks like it too!)

Dragon - youre just whipped :rolleyes:

As an aside - It doesnt matter where you buy your car, it could break down on the way home, mechanical things fail, and the car yard may have had sufficient mechanical work done on the car, but if its working, you cant fix it. If it breaks on the way home, it wasnt broken when they had it, and you cant always blame the mechanic/car yard. Sometimes you can.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      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.
