before I even knew the Murcialagos were being imported to Australia there was a black one parked outside DEMIR on paramata road. This was at the time they were just released!

interesting thread. I'll take some photos of cars down at my work parking. Theres a few ferraris, galardo, diablo and an aston martin. Plenty of porsches and mercs. And one R34 =( lol

hmmm wouldnt also have a HSV Clubby VY series?

Yeah I think soo... His name is David... I think he just sold his Aston to backtrade and bought a new HSV... just released one...I don't follow em so I have no idea!

spotted a fluro green murcielago and an f430 within 20 mins of each other on queen st bris while on a business trip.. made the day .. was druelling after the car... the owner saw me get floored as he was cruising up and gave it the mother of blips... tented the dacks up pretty well. ogled the shit out the lines an was slowly walking after it.. he drove into the lane next to the building i was going into.. gave it another ass caning rev.. made me get a little pre-cum an idled it into the garage... was a spritual moment for a fleeting second when i thought he was pulling over for me to have a looky close up... then realising he was pulling into the garage.. DOH! dream on.. pfftt... but atleast he let me listen to the thing.. it would piss most of with twats constantly staring.. there were some wanks on the other side of the street making burnout signs... just shoook my head an was rewarded with some hard revs.. god the thing sounded sexy.

This was probably the first one I saw too..

WTF-33R Im assuming you're working at Trivett? They look like the shirts they just brought in before I left. I saw and drove plenty of decent cars up there back in the day. I know what you mean when you say they don't excite you anymore. As much as I like "Supercars" the problem is you see one 996 Turbo, you've seen them all etc etc.

I use to work at Lambo and once you finish the first couple of days, it gets like any other job. Its almost worse because you have to take that extra attention to detail.

* Goes to visit Sam at work *

Man, I used to work just down the road in George Street in Parra, and on occasion I used to drive down past your work to jump on James Ruse Drive, then go home through there and Old Windsor Road. There was ALWAYS something nice to look at out there.

thats because trivett service centre is just off james ruse drive

i currently work at trivett and before that i work at rick damelian's and its so true the novelty wears off seeing all these cars and always being around these cars.. But if i ever see something different on the streets i have a mad druell..

    • 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?
