Finally got the interior all painted... what a mission. I'm still blowing paint out of my nose.

And got my plenum back so it can finally push ahead!

Also popped upa pic of the new box. It's a RB25 box with OS Giken 1-3, along with the strengthened input shaft. It has an ERP Bellhousing conversion kit on it so it will fit onto my car using my current OS twin plate clutch. If this thing doesn't hold up then I have to change my driving style :cheers:

I'm in the market for something similar at the moment... but budget won't quite stretch to that fine example, unless I sold the Skyline... and that ain't happening any time soon :cheers:

funnily enough that's exactly my budget... I think something like this would be spot on http://www.my105.com/classified.asp?id=10635

Edit: I was going to try and build my own but have decided there is no way I would get it on the road without blowing out the budget... I'll buy one already registered and then tinker with it myself... much easier to work on for a hack like me than the skyline... cheaper on parts too

Does anyone have any shipping contacts in the good old US of A? I want to bring in a lexan rear window, but shipping via air is out of the question. I need a container spot or something similar. Anyone?

I'm seriously considering painting mine matt black. Externally. With pressure packs.

Matt did his with pressure packs, and once some signwriting is on it, looks aight.

Any thoughts guys? Too rough?

flat/matt black is damn cool i reckon.

was dead keen on doing the evo in flat black, but it turns out cheaper to do the shell gloss white so will press on with boring old white.

you NEED to though benny... and just think, you can swap sponsors on the car with a bucket of water and some chalk!!

Nice work funky, looks great man!

I spent a few hours on saturday with dry ice getting out my sound deadening. Cost me $50 for 14kg and it was pretty much just enough to do the job.

I rekon it took me a bit over an hour :banana:

I have scooped it all into a box, id guess its weight at about 15 kg. Ill weigh it soon just incase anyone is interested.

I NEED to what Stu?

I reckon its a good weekend job, once I have the rest of the GTR sh1t to put on it it's a go :(

paint it flat black... bring out your inner bogun!

if i could do a decent finish with a can i'd do the evo, just not sure if i could get it even enough.

    • So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House  
    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • 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?
