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

What rims are you after Murray? I thought between all three of those businesses, you could take your pick of 95% of jap rims on the market.

After some Work or Rays wheels, or even Manarays, so far some places have the right wheels, but in 17s or have 18s with s**t offset lol....i'll keep looking, but if anyone knows anywhere else i could try.....?

I'm back from the V8s!

I'm still tired, sore and drowsy ... but I had the best time. I guess I'm converted. I have a new appreciation for the V8s motorsport after working within the pits with the teams.

Best part was Tander's garage was one of my teams, and that garage went off like it was 1999 when Tander made that bold move and took the lead on the last lap! All the other pitlane officials hated me getting the HRT garage :P

Need more sleep :P

Welcome :P

From what I've heard locally, they're a good, solid unit. Just don't increase the boost too much on that stock turbo.

I'd say go for it Bildo - just set it at a nice conservative 10psi and it will flatten out your boost curve and make power a tiny bit more linear. Then later on when you do more mods you will benefit from nice consistent boost and have the ability to wind it up when you get a better turbo.

hey all.

does anyone have an account with motor traders? can get cheap parts?

need 4x hec716 (ls1 coilpacks)

going external setup on the CA18det..

if anyone has hook ups let me know :P

also,

took my car to get some work done/oil cooler fitted. picked up the car and oil cooler lines were cut to "make them fit better (too long apparently)"

once they were cut the workshop couldnt get fittings to go on them so now i have an oil cooler with cut lines and nothing to connect them with..

what can i do? claim them against the business?

cheers

      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.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      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?
