ud have to be nuts to go for a WRX, first theyre 4 door- not exactly a sports car, and i think from memory its got a 1.9 litre 6 cylinder engine in comparison to a 2.6 litre GTR the stocky RX has the same engine capacity as the WRX.... u figure it out u have turbo to boost it up and family car sized engine .... u figure it out

Ok hold up! A WRX is a 2 litre Boxter 4 engine (H4) Turbo Charge and the later model it was upped to a 2.5 ltire Boxter 4 engine (H4) Turbo Charge.

There were 2 door versions such as the Subaru Impreza WRX STi 22B.

Cool!

Can someone tell me why you call sti wrx's subies.

WHAT DOES THAT EVEN MEAN?

id go the R34 GTR if i was you mate

Subies = short for Subaru

A Rexy = WRX

Lazy talk, LOL!

OK back to cliffo_rb26dett

If you are 19 and could get a R34 GTR, HELL! GO FOR IT! WHAT YOU WAITING FOR?!

I had to wait 4 years till I got my R32 GTR.

When I was 19, stock R34 GTR's (not even V Spec's) were $110 000 if not $120 000.

GTR vs STi = 2 different cars.

Engine wise and each car will have its own characteristics.

Its up to you to test drive both and make a choice on what you preffer better.

I drove a R34 GTR V Spec then a friends Ford AU TE 50

AWD vs RWD

2.6 lt Inline 6 Twin Turbo vs 5 lt V8

The feel was totaly different, R34, I love the boost kick in feeling at the top end which I am use to and the TE 50's torque was a very big pull down low.

Each to their own.

Well, I do hope that you enjoy your wonderful car for years and years. Townsville you say? How's the road up the mountainside there? Twisty and Windy? Enjoy it!

You've made a great choice if the GTR is in good nick. Get a good mechanic who knows his GTRs... Don't skimp on services with oil changes every 5000Km

Perhaps some of the guys here on SAU can help with that info.

Oh Yes. Don't worry about some of the guys hacking into you about grammar. I must admit that initially I was laughing at you - but now I'm laughing with you...

I keep on telling my friends that I only bought my wife a BMW 'cause it's the only car she can spell !!

You seem like a really nice guy - and a good personality is something you can't pay $$$ for!

PM me if you're in Sydney and you can have a ride in my R34 (or if you prefer, the other one on the left hand side of the page)!

Cheers

i ran this through babelfish and i got

"gday guys, i was gonna get a 32 or a 34 gtr (massive price difference) but the insurance companies wouldn't touch me with dog sh*t on a stick. I am now considering a My03 STI and wonder how much will it get bent over by a GTR. My mate has an MY03 STI and I think it is very fast but I wouldn't know because of the fact that he is my friend but he never lets me sit in his car because of a restraining order.

Cheers"

      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?

      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.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      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.
