How many people in the world have the set?

I believe that 2 people have 2/3 Brett

I consider myself most fortunate because...
* I hadn't been actively looking for the BCNR33

* I really wasn't disenchanted, despite having knocked back six beforehand

* I was fatalistic, thinking, "If it happens, it happens"

* This one was cleaner than the BNR32 despite the 32R having half the Kms

* Iron Chef had two of us Aussie buyers, and Kristian stated that if we were the last two standing, he wasn't going to permit a bun-fight between us. And therefore, he asked each of us to put in a silent bid - and only one bid. It just so happened that other bidders (for this Grade 4B car), dropped off and we here in Oz were the last ones standing after all.

I took the silencer off and the RB sound is still there despite a turbo back titanium system.

It certainly is loud though. I hope there's no droning noise. I'll find out in a couple of days.

Thanks for looking. I'll leave all the c/f bits on it (fake or real) for a little while and see if I can get my head around it.

OS Giken triple is vicious. But I've found a li'l sweet spot where the car can be gently eased forward from a stopped position. Hill starts are a bugger. Lol

Beautiful blue... Do you know what color is used? E.g. from what?

    • No. The simplest wastegate hookup, with no solenoid or other form of "boost control" (ie, control over your boost control, if you know what I mean) is a single hose, direct from the turbo outlet/hot pipe, straight and only to the wastegate actuator. It is that pressure signal that drives the wastegate to open, providing the boost control (and by "boost control" here, I mean, limiting how high it can go, which is essentially the spring pressure of the actuator). You only end up with tee pieces and alternate flow paths once you start adding things to the boost control system to allow you to determine how much of that boost signal makes it to the actuator. There are so many ways to do that that there is no single way to run the hoses and tees and the like. If you have a stock boost solenoid, then all it does is either allow all the boost signal to go to the actuator, or open up to allow some of it to bleed off. There needs to be a restriction in that bleeder to allow only a small amount to bleed off. And in a stock system, that would then be plumbed back to the turbo inlet (for "emissions control" reasons). That is actually what that nipple on your BOV return pipe could/would be for. If you have an aftermarket boost controller and solenoid, then the above is mostly true, but there is no need for a restrictor in the bleed, because the solenoid is pulse width modulated to create a variable bleed off. The air that escapes from the bleed can either be vented, or also returned to the turbo inlet. For emissions reasons it should be returned to inlet, but the amount of air being vented is so small that it really doesn't matter (either from an emissions perspective, or from an air-fuel ratio affecting perspective).
    • And other times you just need to go buy bigger injectors?
    • Yup. I actually just blew my turbo. LOL.  should have checked this thread before today. i also have no boost solenoid. so it should be...one line from wastegate to turbo inlet, and a T somewhere in that line that connects to the wastegate return pipe?
    • It's recommended, however I can assure you a good amount of people don't bother. FWIW, the OEM battery lasted 4.5 years and I changed it prematurely too, I reckon could have stretched it to 5 years.
    • Are you telling me I'm going to need a code reader etc to just change the battery when it dies...  Why did I let you talk me into allowing Kate to buy this car lol
