toyota gotta stop with the bad named cars. LFA, that name for 86 concept, and now the FT1. if its not an affordable sports car not interested, because once the price comes up, its becomes an over-complicated, heavy, hard to repair/mod, luxury swollen POS.

shieeet, i didnt think they were considering load shedding today. retailers gonna have to ream customers next bill.

price went from around $50MWh wholesale, to $750MWh yesterday. interstate generators gonna make a looooot of moola. Alcoa (portland and geelong) will probably call off most work tomorrow. save money and take some stress off the grid. if the desal was running it would probably do the same (lol)

The FT1 isn't the name for the car that it's going to be, it's just a placeholder "Future Toyota 1".

I think it looks quite awesome, but it will be closer to the 6 figure mark unfortunately.

yeah? why did they not upgrade the generation capability when they could have?

They both look awful, new cars are terrible.

Understand old cars better looking and cooler.

but the hassle with daily driving one is a bitch,

Day I bought my mustang, had it parked middle of the day in Bouke street CBD for 30 min whilst I ducked into work.

Badges gone.

had 6-8 badges stolen, antenna (seriouslly wtf) fuel filler cap, multiple mirrors,

and when the cost to repair the paint damage froma badge is more than the badge as they ripped a screwdriver down the side of the car, it jsut not worth it.

my ideal daily is small, manual, cheap to run.and good visability

I was looking at a VW up to be honest but holding out for a year or so to see what is coming out atm, if I they do a S16, I'm on it like a fat kid on a twinkie..well like me on a twinkie anyhow.

just for aaron as posted to drift sales last night.

You should've seen the spider wondering around the garden in lanka.. The thing had 8 legs, + two more legs that had like lobster claws.

    • 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?
