Yeh that was probably one of the best runs yet...definitely the best way to spend a Sunday arvo before it all starts again on Monday!

Well I need to let the ol' 26 out for a run at least once a fortnight haha....can't have it all gumming up on me now with my 3 minute work trips =/

You'll have to get your rear end fixed for next time MeLar ;)

Awesome time boys. Loved every minute of it!

Great chat, great food - talk about cheap and cheerful.

Would love to go bowling or mini golf LOL

I suck terribly at both so would be great for me to come out and give you guys a few pointers :P

In other news, the rear end is the least of my problems. The car was overheating on the way home. Needed some lovely aircon and nekminnit the gauge started climbing slowly. Reached the 3/4 mark just below the big "H" as I drove into the garage...watched it like a hawk the whole way home I did too.

Sooooooooo.....next cruise, if the old girl's not up to the task, I'll be in the Caldina but will have to hitch a ride in one of the 'lines. Wife has banned me easing it down mountain passes ;)

Well what a crazy few days weather wise. Was locked up inside all of Saturday and Sunday so just had to get out of the house today. I lost power twice over the weekend but I was/am lucky compared to Me_Larr and sonnyQ. Tommis85 what are you going to do now the seas have subsided? Captain Natro did you get the hatsu out from it's bogged location? The daily wouldn't start this morning, but have had the battery on charge and hopefully a bit of dry weather overnight and tomorrow to let the old girl dry out a bit and hopefully she will start

Power came back on late arvo today guys. Rain also stopped for now so I don't have to sleep with a mop and bucket/oil pan in my arms.

Thanks for dropping by, Chris. Good chat :)

Apart from my struggles, I've got some good news to share. Picked up the old girl now equipped with a big F**k O** Koyo rad and new thermostat.

Now all I need is a 40degree day + aircon + stop-start traffic/spirited driving to see if that done the trick.

Just need to fix the rear end alignment issues and I "should" fall in love with her again.

      Thought i'd update on this. I was able to get in contact with Craig Lieberman and later on Darryl Alison (owner of Kaizo Industries). Darryl was able to help me verify that my car was in fact one of theirs and is helping me find more info on mine !

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.

      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.
