Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Andy: I did shop around, PLENTY when looking for tyres for the SP23 & the R33 (rang approx 15 tyre places). Both times Adelaide Tyrepower were the best price for what I wanted.

I cant explain why they weren't the best price for you, but im still surprised they weren't.

Did they come in s2? I know of a gun metal grey one with chrome rims if its still there

Yeh they came in S2 and gunmetal would be nice also but no.1 preference is a silver (sonic) ;)...but i think you are referring to a s1 which is a no go unfortunately.

I just want to see the kind of prices people are asking for them as i might be getting a house instead of a GTR, but ill need another nice skyline other then my 31...And i wouldn't go to anything else non GTR, but a silver s2 R33...my true love :). Still cant get over my stolen 1 and its been 2 years !!!

Nah not sick of the 31, i was just secretly hunting for a GTR ;) but i think my money is better spent on a house at this stage ! And if i can manage to pick up a 33+house = win > GTR !

GTR can wait...all in good time :)

Lol andy if you were my boss you would have me bidding on yahoo auctions all day

why no s1 kissin lack of air bag? What if its a steal of a price

nothin wrong with s1, just s2 has mega sentimental value. Im in no rush to buy so i would prefer to buy something that would be perfect.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      By djr81 · Posted

      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

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By djr81 · Posted

      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.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      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?
