True, but i have had such little experience driving a manual. I figure if this is going to be a keeper, i could always do a manual conversion later when i get a bit more confidence.

youre lookin at a fair amount of dollars for an rb25 manual conversion, best to save the money and effort.

:EDIT: good spot luke, didnt even see that.

When we first spoke to the seller about organising a pre purchase inspection, i had organised it for Morpowa. He then came back and said he couldn't do it that day. He said he didn't mind coming down my way to boostworx. He said he had most of the work done there. Maybe im just being given the run around.

this is the first ove been online all day! so ner :D

took the rolla out for drive today, she uses about 1/4 tank to 200kms which i dont think is too bad really :(

however, the spark plugs are rooted so ill be changing them in a couple of days time!

yeah for a lil carbi creature mine goes pretty hard if she wants too lol and being manual is a bonus aswell. the interior on mine is very mint as, there is a little hole on the drivers seat but thats about it really, rest of the car is pretty clean, had new tyres on too

    • 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?
