Thank you. tangles

pete as i said i havnt been riding, my r date is this week. =]

No probs then. Wasn't having a go ... I've already had a learner rider kill himself on an R1 50m from my house some years ago. Just showing some concern and upholding the law :bunny:

yeah nice bike mate, as roo said its not a good habit to go riding without the approved licence,it sounds like your being sensible though good on you. These days there arent that many riders that actually have experience and keep there road rules in check, the state has had an abundance of young lads going out and getting their bike license,which is great for us fellow riders,except when they decide not to listen to us riders that have been riding for as long as they have been born,we dont need dead riders,the cops already pick on us enough without making us more of a target.

Like others ive had my share at sitting by the side of the road holding somones pieces together,ive had enough of the wahoo guys, ride safe guys and keep it safe for others

Craig, I had to sell my dirt bike some time ago. I just kept busting myself up on tracks and jumps too often. It was worse than crashing at the race track (Mallala) :P

Nice old school KLX (?) you got coming. It'll have some awesome torque for wheelies! Was your previous ride a KX80?

NA KDX, 95 model.

prev. bike was KX 125, that thing was twitchy as all hell, scary at times!

this thing has been bored with bigger piston apparently, so we will see how she goes when it gets here

Yeah you're right ... KLX's and KLR's are 4 stroke. I saw the bike in the pic was a 2 stroke, but knew it wasn't a KX being the road-going version.

KDX ... but its forgiven. I don't like Kawasaki's much :)

BTW ... I thought the 125 had larger expansion chambers? Only reason I guessed it being an 80.

licence:

Full licence (restricted till jan next yr)

years riding:

    • 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.
