haha, at first i thought ben was doin it on purpose, then he pulled over and i was like

oh ohhhhhh........ thats not good.

but thankfully it wasnt anthying bad!

spewin we missed the tunnels though!

Craig, continuing from the accident thread.

I get looks and sAfrican Americans all the time man. Every from my own family, especially my dad.

One night at tea we were sitting down eating and I was telling him something about my car. He got up and walked into the kitchen came back with the bin and put it on the table then said to me "Here, put your money in here" and walked out.

yeah, some people just dont understand the passion mate.....

my GFs mum was the same, but i got her good,

she smokes and plays pokies, atleast i had something to show for my money!

I WIN OLD LADY!

you work hard for your money, do what you wish with it imo!

cant you just weld it up Cubes, or is it totally stuffed??

I could try all though the heat may? damage the actuator, nothing to loose though I guess lol.

I need to replace the actuator any way as when tuned the most boost it would hold was 17psi and now with similar ambient temps its down to 16.6psi.

Wound a heap of preload on to it ~10-15mm but made no difference. The gate is being blown open which is partially due to the dump design but its better than having boost creep as its easily fixed. :)

if you get water onto it straight away it should stop the heat travelling down the metal, if you can get it off i could have a go at welding for you as i work at Ascott welding :P

Thanks for the offer but its all done. I only have an arc welder but its fine for little jobs like this. The weld appears to be plenty strong.

The old man has a mig but be buggered if i can get the travel speed + wire speed + amps + gas all sorted out to get a decent weld. :P

Now to find the end bit that screws on and attaches to the wastegate flapper arm. Hopefully I didn't leave it in the engine bay last night when it was dark while I was cursing. :S

FREE STUFF!!!

-bleed valve

-rb25 top radiator hose

-R33 door sills

-rb25 turbo heat shield

-mushroom pod filter (not the best for the bigger power cars (sufficated my 33 after 3000 rpm)

come get it if ya want anything.i dont need it!

    • 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?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
