$1500 bucks for all the parts:rolleyes: from what I could find that's enough to cover the box only!!!

Yeah. We've been to him 3 times now. All for different problems. One being the HICAS. Its fixed now but something else is wrong (which wasn't his fault) and we've had it serviced by him too. Can't complain about anything. Cept the Boost gauge we got put in stopped working but thats only cause the line crimped behind the face of the gauge.

He's not too expensive either.

Well I'm Gary,

Most of you will remember as Gary from the old SDU forums. I have since sold my 33 gtst.....(sob sob) and am soon expecting my new 260 RS Stagea, and boy am I looking forward to that day... I live on the Western side of Brisbane and enjoy going for "spirited" drives through the mountains... Now that the new forums are up and running I will speak to you guys more often. I guess I will see you all later at some time.

Cheers

Gary

Just an update, for anyone who cares... I finally got my dirty little hands on an R33 GTS25t over the weekend. It's sitting in Osaka at the moment, but should be in Bris on the 5th of August and in my dirty little hands about two weeks after that.

Car: Don't ask what I drive now, but just had a loan approved, so I'm about to hunt down an R33.

Occupation: Sysadmin (professional geek) at the same place as Squizz.

No doubt will meet some/all of you when I finally get the new car.

 Hi Sciby.... you still with OCAU?

 

Hey Jay,

Yup, still doing the OCAU thing, but I haven't done news posts for ages. Typing all that out gets very boring after a while. I mainly write articles now, but I still administrate the forums and irc channel as well.

Was rather surprised to be recognised on here via OCAU. :(

Well the car has to be complied as standard.....(bugger)...

Mine is to get upgraded turbo's, new computer, exhaust, 18 (maybe 19) inch wheels, and dropped on it's guts. I'm also thinking of stroking the RB26 up to a 3 litre:D Then it should produce around 500 horses at all wheels. I'm also doing a bit of a body modification, but I'm keeping that secret at the moment.

What I want is, evryone to think WTF!!!

Be patient and all will see the unleashed beast.

Cheers

Gary

As much as I'd love a 34 GTR, there's just something about a super fast WAGON that I can totally dig. Imagine some wanker in his V8 Ute thinking he's king of the world, next thing this big arse wagon with huge wheels pulls up next to it and looks over. Then bang, what ute ?

I'm sure that's what you're thinking aren't you gary :uh-huh:

      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.
