wanna hear the funniest thing ..... one police officer goes to the other "whats the rego" .... "N-I-Z-M-O" "Yeah but whats the rego?" ....... "that was it" ..... "oh i thought that was the make" :D .... idrive a Nizmo model of car haha

I looked at my watch and it had just gone 12 so I thought I will just finish up what I am doing then pop out and get some lunch..... the next time I looked at my watch it was about 2.15 ..... I just had this stunned look on my face after realising that I just missed my lunch..... ohhh well I am just going to go home early :D

no takers on the car so far. In the sunday times again this week.

Might try the auto trader. Someone suggested to take the Nitrous kit off, because people are turned off by it perhaps?

Sad state we live in when people are turned off by 400+hp at the tyres :D

Hi Alex....

I know what you mean Dave.... although we all know that you installed the Nitrous kit properly and competently etc , the person walking in off the street is probably going to be a bit reserved seeing a nitrous kit on the car... peoples first interpretations of kits like that are not good when buying a car....

agreed. Nitrous is probably not a huge selling point.

people are funny things....a percentage of people who buy a line would do so because their mate said they were really fast and chopped his gemi or escort or somethin.....another probably more volumous proportion would do so because they think they look good, and hope to acheive car horn appeal without a $100,000 BMW price tag.

But NO ONE who buys one considers that they are all second hand.

and everyone is scared shitless that they will buy a lemon.

    • 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.
