had quite a few power spikes at work tonight. was interesting. lights flash out, dealers, inspectors, and pit bosses instantly go on the gaurd, and half the punters start weighing up their chances of snatching some 500's. :)

also, f**kin lovin the way the 200 drives now, new clutch made a HUGE difference. and the apexi pipes sound prety awesome too.

LOL okay, so I'm sitting in the office here at SA Water, and hear this car revving out the front. It sounds like a old school V8 or something crazy. So I walked to the windows and looked down, and see this banged up VN Commodore, with faded paint all over it, no front bar, a smashed window and a crazy guy in the drivers seat.

Anyway, so he keeps revving the car, reverses super quick into a ute parked behind him (actually hits the ute, dents the front bar... but no one was in the ute), takes off to the end of the street and then rips a massive skid in front of the law courts in Victoria Square!! And then takes off down the street with smoke everywhere.

The thing sounded nuts! But shit... to rip a skid out the front of the courts?! at 11:30am in full view of everyone?!! Crazy.

    • 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.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
