yeah working out of a home office is awesome, but yes, the interruptions are immense .... between a 2 year old begging me to take him out on the swing (his Grandma is home looking after him today), to SAU, to emails, to browsing US Ebay for car bits .... I reckon I do 30% works, 70% "other" .... just finished watching "District 9" while typing some reports - cool movie

AFL Dream Team Finals edition is up, league code for "SAU" is 615861

3 players max from each team, no salary cap :(

Thats kinda how it is for me only i'm at work.

My boss and I are the only people with our own offices and we are upstairs. The rest of the company are downstairs in a open area.

I spend all day having tabs open in firefox and i'm constantly just browsing while files are loading, things are printing, etc, etc.

I get heaps of work done and am just about always on top of things. So it's not so bad.

Im much the same. A good employer won't be worried about browsing if the work rate stays up, as the 2-3 minute mental break can often help improve productivity.

Ive been doing server reports all morning. They take around 5 hours to do. If I dont stop and have a 2-3 minute mental vacation, I'm more likely to miss details...

Its kinda like pulling over the side of the road and having a 10 minute smoko when you're on a long drive. recharges the batteries

    • 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.
