Spotted Subaru driver rear ending my car at a set of traffic lights. 7 years of hard work to not just buy this car, but keep it running, insure it, modify it and respect it, ruined by 2 seconds of incompetence by some guy who must have been playing with himself at the time not to notice it stopped. Not. Happy.

Fingers crossed. Just hoping the insurer doesn't decide to write it off. Pretty sure my insurer gives me a choice of repairer, any suggestions in Canberra? Last place I took my other car too has closed down, Gemini i think it was.

Mucho improvement ????

Yeh heaps, for starters im not running -3 degrees camber in the rear with eccentric adjuster maxed out and eating tyres. I can now get the rear lower without fouling the coilovers too. The castor arms I didn't go too crazy with castor but it corners very well and hard braking feels more direct and pedal seems stiffer cos there's zero play in the front wheels now (pillowball arms).

    • 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  
    • 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?
