Here's a old-school Toyota Celica Turbo... owned by TOM's then by Trust:

It apparently magically dissapeared after a few races in 1983. Now look where it's ended... in someones backyard laying to rot:

It's crazy how much abandoned cars there is in Japan... all just rusting away.

I'm looking at doing a 100k service on the GTR in the coming weeks. Should I replace my water pump with a standard pump or n1 water pump

Go see Rob And Rocco at Synergy, they get Tru-flo pumps fro japan, basically an N1 copy for a fraction of the price. Put one on my old 33 just before i sold it.

just took the 200 for the first spin in a few weeks. tis nice. crushed exhaust is making itself painfully obvious however. has trouble boosting past 0.8 bar, used to get out to 1.2 easy. gotta replace that soon, and install my ebc i reckon.

Jap Motorsport = Adelaide Jap?

I was going to buy a RB20 long motor for $1k, until I found a complete RB25DET cheaper :huh:

    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
    • But if you had to go bury a body in the forest, would you not put that in the boot? Most of them are >=90kg these days.
