these getrag gearboxes are noisy buggers, they seem to shift more smoother the harder you accelerate lol.

up until you destroy 5th and have to cruise in 4th or 6th.

ill iron out all the kinks of it if you like :down:

haha, its ok its meant to make all those little noises anyway its normal. i looked up supra's and they are the same and im sure bmw used the same gearbox as well.

whats your gearbox like? ive heard that evo gearbox's can be a bit notchy? dont know if its true though.

how would i destroy 5th? by the time i get to go into 5th im just cruising by then or else id be way over the speed limit. i guess at a racetrack would be different.

yeah mines good, have the 5 speed

unlike the evo 8/9 which have the 6 speed the 5s are just a little stronger

when i rode with jamie, the GTR's driveline was noisy as f**k!

i read thats normal, really makes it feel like the cars got its own soul though :)

on another note, nick you going autosalon?

thats a good point, i didnt buy it for it to be quiet and comfortable ( even though it is actually very comfortable). if i wanted that i would of got a luxury barge. i worked my ass off for this car and im happy with it :O .

    • 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.
