+1 to this, takeaway would be comming form all diffrent directions

Don't we feel the least sorry for Eagle Boys/Domino/Crust for making 1000s of pizzas each night for people who'll never pay? And what about the "GTFO"s that the delivery boys cop + the fuel they use up?

At least pay me decent money to take my 'good book' to read to her! And after I smash her in the face with it you'll all identify her with the embossed title on her forehead that reads,...

"ELBIB YLOH EHT"

Very bad luck, Geoff. And kudos to you for maintaining a level head. If it was me, I wouldn't be so 'kind'.

I have a next door neightbour who is sounds exactly like the woman who vandalised your car. She thinks it is her "right" to have the two spots outside her house as hers, although she never parks outside. We have had incedents of vandalism for years - from raw fish inside cars to broken mirrors, antennas, glass, and scratches/keying.Oh, and one incident of acid sprayed over the fence onto a new 4WD.

Funny thing is these incidents only happen when cars are parked outside her place, not mine, and only to our cars.

Some serious security cameras and a a few words to the streets gossiper and surprisingly the incidents stopped immediately. :D

Charlie thanks for the offer mate, unfortunately.. I'm sure it would get vandalised too. As a boatie myself (was actually fishing in Pittwater at the time) it would hurt to see that happen :)

The people we know in the street have already been told what happened, one of them is the neighbourhood gossip so word WILL spread. I can only hope she got a bit of a surprise when the police turned up to question her, might make her think twice next time.

Dave there are plenty of things I'd love to do.. this cow is exceptionally lucky I have the level of restraint that I do.

Sorry to hear Geoff....how are you going gettting it fixed.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but unless the cops can nail it too her your shit out of luck on this one :(

spot on. the same company made us pay an excess after a taxi hit the z while parked, even though we gave them and the police the number plate of the cab that did it.

fixed everything besides the AM/FM antenna but I've got one waiting to go on, just ran out of time. By luck I found a silver pair of mirrors right away, they needed some minor repair work to get the folding action going again but all sorted now.

the doors also need a polish, there are some scuff marks from where the mirrors hit the paintwork. passenger side has a slight dent too but i'll live with it for now. basically all sorted :)

cheers dunc, sucks about the z. mongrels.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      By djr81 · Posted

      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

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By djr81 · Posted

      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.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      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?
