Was pretty good

I dig the decor too

Honestly knew nothing of him running a new one until he came up and said hi

This is because you're not on facebook and don't come to any events or track days...

Stock specs will be fine, if it's lower you'll have more camber but you only get half a degree of adjustment in the rear and none in the front so not like you can do anything about it. Getting toe right is the main thing so you're not chewing through tyres.

if you can would run a little more camber in the front just for handling.

but if stock you don't have much adjust ability

so camber front -1 rear -.5

maybe 1-2 mm tow in front just to have it turn a bit better.

rear fairly neutral

Big difference in drivetrain loss, if the article is unbiased (they are technically sponsored by holden) and lets assume the claimed flywheel figures weren't bs from the beginning.

So where's the loss coming from, do they have similar style drivetrains and transmissions?

At the end of the day, its a heap of power anyway... you're going to have a ball either way... But what happens when you swap an exhaust / intake and do a simple flash tune... Is one going to pick up 20kw and the other one going to pick up 100kw? If so, my choice is made right there...

I think bs flywheel figures is the crux of the article brah

    • 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?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
