I dunno Alan - car looks tuff to me. Here's a better shot. I'm not a huge fan of the red red ferrari's. If I was ever stupidly rich enough to be able to get one for fun I would get one in the burgandy color they come in. I reckon that looks awesome. But anyways....

Na look some people are tools. Some guy reckons because his modded wrx was able to keep up with a ferrari that a wrx must be better than a ferrari.

He suffers from delusions.

I mean last year at Sandown I chopped a 355 and in the Dutton blew off a 996 RS. But I know my car isn't better than either of them.

um...are they pulling out to overtake, or just getting a better angle... either way thats a damn nice car!

I may go out on a limb here and say that I would prefer a hard top over the convertible, I always find the soft top wrecks the cool roof lines of a coupe... examples would be the 350Z, 911, etc

Has anyone watched some of those Best Motoring videos? In every race where there is a Ferrari it has come last. It was beaten by R34 GTR's, 911 Turbos, Murcielago's and even a M3. It wasnt the driver either. One time it was Gansan and even he said that Ferrari's tend to perform poorly on the track due to the lack of 4WD. I'd still get one though.

Why are they comparing a RWD to 4WDs with just as much if not more power? That's simply unfair. As for the M3, I'm betting it wasn't a one sided fight there.

Don't get me wrong, I think they are all magnificent cars (having driven all of them bar the Lambo) but when comparing things, don't compare a fork to a spoon.

      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.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      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.

      R34 4 door side skirt identification

      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.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
