Helllllllllooooooooo I'm still here, just got the suspension changed in my 34 today actually. So I'll be spending a little more time driving it around now. I have some sad news though, I'm moving

Blew the cobwebs out of @Sinista32 last Sunday for a few hours. It's great to get the passion back every so often

No you just tried to give him a run. Stop telling us how you are driving like a dickhead.

Spotted: Burgundy 32 heading towards the city. Too far away to see if it was a GTR but it had what looked to be a stock wing. ie not Sxygtst or Gorans beast!

I'm told there's a recently imported GTR with a T88 (read heavy hitter) that was out at Ed's yesterday. Apparently in very good nick (Blue?) will confirm and post.

Nope - a nice very attractive babe on the MC was pulled over so I did the right thing and lent her a hand :P. An MC in front of her dropped a foot peg from his bike and it got wedged between her tyre and the frame. Manged to free it for her.

"Spinout" at Jerra on Tuesday Night.

spotted sinista the other day (monday?) pulled over next to one of the big round abouts, with a motorbike in front...

was that just after you had the spin someone mentioned?

Spotted:

Amaru, Aurora n Me and a pair of Police officers in a shiny Red Ford at BP in Queanbo. Followed after registering a slight speed infringment. 20 minutes later after a close inspection of after market goodies we felt releif when no tickets were issued. Nice guys, think they were interested in our rides and where we got the work done.

Drive responsibly and remember there are few good men in blue patroling our roads.

Yeah, thought i saw purple :cheers: NSW plates are looking good these days.

And yeah, those Police were nice about everything, and don't be surprised if we see their car at Eds getting some work in the near future, lol.

That would be excellent so long as we get to work on it too!!

Thanks for bravely drawing the heat and then making friends with them in order to allow us to work some tuning magic on their pursuit car.

Heh heh

Dropped a footpeg??? WTF??? Who needs to do some maintenance then? Makes me shudder just to think about it. Weighted footpeg, sharp bend, some speed on board...'what's that banging on the rear wheel...ummmm, that'd be my foot.' Actually she's lucky the front didn't lock = ugly.

Anyway did you assist her in unwedging it by lending her your expertise in working in confined spaces with black rubber objects? Or was it the tyre and HER frame. Hmmmm? Come on, was it??? Someone told me there was a cutie on the side of the road with a MC and a dreamy look on her face taking long breaths on a cigarette soon after you left.

That was me in the RS waving this morning but you prob figured that...

      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.

      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?
