Well if u can pick up another caliper tonight it would take about half an hour plus a brake fluid bleed!

Problem is, I don't have either and have never done the brakes before.

oh gosh, wish you were my neighbour Aaron!!!

You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

I remember some 25GT taking like 1 minute in the opposite lane trying to over take someone, that was funny.

There wasn't anything really bad that happened.

Just a lot of overtaking. Dont remember any burnouts or anything.

Edit, I remember justin being fed up with someone going slow in front of him, so he went into another lane and boosted off, only to see a speed camera right in front of him, *slams on brakes*

Ide help out but I'm in SE subs. Just undo the rear bolts holding on the front face of the caliper and try and in seize it. You should be able to. Then just do em back up. Might get you to where u need to be, and if it does un seize then atleast if it f**ks up on the way u can do a quick temp fix.

But I seriously wouldnt be driving it. If the brake is clamping your going to have some serious heat issues and break something

my 2530 sees the light again! A bit dusty, nothin suss with the actuator. Its stock :ph34r:

Anyone have a foot pump with a pressure dial gauge? Want to check if ive set the actuator correctly... From what I could make from the japanese instruction manual, it says 179mm for 1.0bar. Although heaps of thread still remains. Does that mean I can go for moar? Can someone plz translate the table? Thanks

Cheers for the advices Aaron! Will give it a shot if not I'll just quickly pop into Brake Plus or something tomorrow and hope they do it fast.

It says if you run too much boost, there will be danger to the manifold

I'm doing some work with my cousins business to help him out with the social networking side of things / help getting his name out - basically it's a small online JDM car parts store and quickly building in size. Like on facebook if you feel like helping out :)

http://www.facebook.com/jdmracingau

a link to the store is on the facebook page.. check it out

also he's started up a youtube channel for product reviews and events / trackdays etc. and we'll be doing some "driver profile" type videos in the near future - so will need a few different cars / people I'm sure I'll contact some of you about this in the future!

/shameless plug - sleep time now brahz

THAT WAS ME! >.< Bloody bitch next to me was speeding up as I was trying to over take her... Twas rather frustrating... Especially being N/A :-(

As for an incident, there was one overtaking incident on the GOR itself, guy tried to overtake 3 of us at a corner, almost went head first into a semi, would have collected all of us... Twas early in the day, towards the end of the pack (obviously, me being in a N/A)

But f**k, I was driving so f**kin hard to try and keep up on that day!

I remember going up to shepparton, birds saw this.

Alvin was overtaking some bogan in an old xr8, the dude stepped on it and we almost hit an oncoming car (car swerved into emergency lane)

This was in the soarer, and the soarer was missfiring because his pod fell off... LOL

      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.

      By Duncan · Posted

      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.
