Thanks for all the support fellas you guys are legends - there's no way that I could replace the car with anything but another Skyline. I was thinking about it all last night - I really should be angrier at the other driver, after all he did almost kill me "not noticing" the lights were Red. But, he'll pay for his mistakes in one way or the other - he had about 6 cops talking to him and only one talking to me. Doesn't that kind of behaviour get in to careless driving charges? Anyway, we're all OK and thats the main thing. Accidents happen. Time to move on...

that was such a mint car... has the insurance company told you yet if its a writeoff or if they'll give you the $$ to fix it? I dunno if it'll be quite the same if you fix it.

I want it to be a write-off, I don't believe it can be repaired to same standard (which was immaculate). I've added a couple more photos - what do you guys think? The roof has buckled in parts.

Also, on the current policy it's insured for 23k, on the renewal next month it's only 18k so it's just the right time. :D

Wow, just looked at the rest of the pics! Yeah 100%. If they don't write it of I'm monkey's uncle :D Just out of curiosity, who are you insured with? Is it agreed or market value? I got $28k market for mine after a lot of fighting. If u need any help let me know.

Justcar, Market Value I think. I should find out today.

Sorry to hear Greg.

I drove from Chadstone to Deer Park last night and saw no less than 8 accidents along the way - heaps of bad driving during the rain, some people should not have a licence if they can't drive in the wet, perhaps the basic licence test should include a SkidPan day?

Good luck with getting T2500 [or similar] on the road :D

Edit, actually the first crash was 2 streets away from my house - chadstone rd, chad shop cntr entrance intersection, a Mirage pointing in the wrong direction with the front half of the car mangled similar to yours...

What is it with people and accidents lately!

Eveyone is getting into prangs!

skylines are cursed melbourne wide I reckon! My mate who bought a 33GTR recently ran up the back of a taxi (nothing to do with speed, etc).. he'd only had it for a month!

p.s. while i'm here, time to hurl abuse from afar: good to see summer is kicking on well for you guys :D

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
