Joe,

insurance is put simply - imdemnity. replaces you prior to your loss.if you outlay 50k and similar cars have a guide of 80k, some inusrers will go off purchase price. they will ask you. if the underwriter does the job properly, they will ask why you got it cheap. if you pay 50k, say on rego tranafer its 30k, claim gets investigated and you paid 30k - the insurer will have a few options to the insured...im sure you can all guess.

many reasons as you said can get cheap - family, repariable write off etc - best to be up front

with most companies, repairable write offs once inspected by an insurer for comp cover are with upto 75% of the guide price.

I for one wouldnt want to screw around with an insurer, i have seen the outcomes of people who have....I wouldnt want to be in their shoes

remember, both parties entering into the contract (the policy) have a duty of utmost faith.

to be honest to each other

    • 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?
