hmmm im having traction probs and my car well shouldnt be powerful enough to be spending most of my drive to work this morning sideways!

Is it my tyres being square - i mean ive got 90% tread on them but it must be the eggs i guess?

Literally i lost traction 4 times on the way to work - once around a corner which was fun cos this arsehole was tailgating me and i was taking off slow cos of the wet roads so i thought - u wanna see what happens when i put my foot down? well here we go wanker - hehe and there was a bit of drifting n fishtailing after that - lets just say he backed off pretty quick specially when it happened again on the take off from the lights but i wasnt being stupid that time. Yes even when i tried to take off really slowly the 4th time not far from work the back wheels were spinning and the car was going sideways - so i dont know - im guessing its the tyres? but its not like i still dont have grip.

i have an auto - i mean the corner was delibrate to get arsehole a fright behind me n off my tail. But the other three times was when i was taking off and i was trying to do it slowly but it just kept spining the tyres.

Morning - most of us WA arent even outta bed yet well its 9am so they should be.

    • 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?    
    • 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.
