Just letting everyone know that i sold my beloved R33 :)

I sold her to my mechanic for 9500 , she needed new sparks, coils , sunroof needed fixing , air con was broken and air bag/horn was f***ed so i think i did pretty good with that price lol ,

Its sad to finally let her go , she was a good little car who gave me many thrills and wow's.

I bought my dads car for replacment, Subaru Liberty GT , 2004 , i feel so old and mature now :rofl:

Ill try get some photos up tonight..

Cheers

Tim

Mate, I sold my turbo R33 last month and soon to buy a Corolla... the petrol war made me surrender.

Wait till the petrol hits 2 dollars + for PULP (which is about 6 months away)... you will consider selling your Liberty for a Yaris :domokun:

hahaha damn. yes the skylines running costs and insurance premiums has made me wonder if I shall keep it either.

Out of curiosity, whats the goin price of 98RON fuel in your vicinity when you last fueled up?

I filled up today and it was $1.56/L for BP ultimate. I'd say it's fairly good considering the price of regular unleaded down south.

Qld has it cheaper with petrol... we pay around 1.60 mark for PULP in Vic.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
