Agreed on the toyota thing, anything i've ever had or been in that's been a DAILY styles toyota (vans, corolla's) etc just won't give in. BUT excel's are the f**king bomb too, our old one just would not die.

And you definitely don't wanna get something that is mildly amusing, and I mean that, even a piece of shit silvia, cos if you have the mod bug, you'll find SOMETHING to do on it. You need something you A) can't touch because there ARE no options or B) aren't allowed to touch (your mum's car would do the trick here).

Personally i'd be going for the Suzuki carry van or a Reliant Robin.

I'm big on style you see :banana:

So true, I had no intention of spending any money on the sexF but even found things to do on that (8 ball shifter :banana:, digital dash, etc). Theres ALWAYS options for a modder. Fortunately not many for an XF though :P

Personally i'd be going for ... a Reliant Robin.

+11ty!

      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?
