Haha how slow do you have to take the corners on that hill...so damn tight. Gotta slip the clutch in 1st on some turns :/

Haha i know some of them are like wtffffff up and around really tight 1st or 2nd gear for me

lol @ that phaggot

Leigh what's done to the xr6?

not sure, good thing is the 4lt means you can pretty much strap on what ever turbo you want.. crazy

lol

wtf do you do for a living?

I'm a system engineer, (Although returning from NZ I'll have a new job which is like a commissioning technician role)

Hump is growing on me...

lameeeeee!

I will be missing in action over the next 2 weeks guys off to NZ for a holiday!! (leaving tomorrow morning) :)

Ordered new front and rear fender, front light, and rim tape hopefully delivered while im overseas :D

Gonna miss my baby: :(

need to meet june 24th dead line, bride copy will do.

lol what are you on a car building reality tv show?

lameeeeee!

Give it a couple of years, most jackets will come with them and it will be a minority that don't have them lol. I wouldn't have one on a commuter/cruiser/motard, but if you're hitting the corners on a speed machine you will look the part.

Sucks man, I was going to hit you up for a ride on Friday cause I have it off!

R1/R6/GSXR/CBRRs I can understand, but if you got a 250 / cruiser / motard then yeah I reckon a bit lame as they wont get any decent speed anyway lol

ride in 2 weeks time :D you can come over and help me put on my new parts if they arrive :P

I was reading up on them earlier, apparently they give more protection than they do aerodynamic assistance. Some manufacturer did wind tunnel tests and found little to no aerodynamic change, whilst people have been in crashes with them and claimed that the hump levels out your back with the back of your helmet - therefore less pressure on / chance of hyperextending your neck in a fall.

Yeah I'll give you a hand.

i've never fallen off my car...

I'd happily have the hump if im riding an R1 lol but on a lil 2fiddy looks a bit overkill

Aparently makes a noticeable difference on freeways/high speeds

Some find it uncomfortable though

Dez what jacket you getting?

Something in the Dainese range

ill try this again as i accidentally posted in vic post your ride thinking i was in wasteland >,<

parts left japan on monday according to rhdjapan and i come home today and they have arrived :S

thats faster than aus post can do from syd -> melb!

    • 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?
