Back on topic... drove behind a Navy Blue LP640 near Bondi Beach a couple of weeks ago. Licence plates TTZ***. Very nice (and very LOUD) car.

That was me! We are putting some new rims on it next week. 20x13 rears and 19x8.5 fronts. Should make it look alot better.

Also runs a Tubi exhaust!

Thanks for that, he he. Great looking and sounding car.

Gorgeous colour.

You start to see Lambo owners tart up their older cars now (like early Gallardos and even some Murcielagos) with carbon bits and the later model tail lights, side air intakes, etc and I think it completely ruins the car.

To these eyes anyway, any of the 'last of the line' models, like your LP640, and the Countach Anniversary, Diablo 6.0, and LP560-4, are a perfect representation of each generation and don't need any sort of embellishment or addenda.

No way, here is a before and after...

    • 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?
