Looks sweet Bobby!

With the external oil feeds to the head, is it setup that way so you can alter the flow to the head with a restrictor in the line where it shares its supply from the turbo oil out T connection?

Hi Ian,

Yes the oil flow can be controlled.

Yes the oil will be T connected to the oil feed line.

Best build I've seen....love all the custom stuff and the workmanship is incredible....

It's not often you see someone go the full 9 yards with a build.. and one day I hope I can afford doing something like this once I finish uni etc...

Btw, I would actually consider selling my left testicle in exchange for owning this car (srs)

hi bobby andrew with the compound ca18 i was just wondering at what stage are u at with this car now ? i spoke to john the other day for a few hours and noticed your engine still on the fabrication stand... just today i started making my own wastegate venturi ventricle, not as nice as johns hydro formed one but some of us arent as well setup or skilled.

Hey Andrew,

The motor at John is a dummy rb26 only used for the manifold.

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
