Hey, im sure it has been covered many times but i haven't been able to find any record of it on the website.

I basically need a good mechanic that knows a thing or two about the RB engine. Gotta get the 100,000km service done and i dont want just anyone doing my installation (esp. after last time i got a 100,000km service done to my other car).

Can anyone recommend a mechanic in either the Outerwest (penrith) or the Sutherland area (Kirawee or Jannali). I could have sworn i saw one around JustJap but i can't find it again.

Cheers guys.

Definitely checkout Waterhouse Autocare at penrith (check my sig).

Make sure you get Jamie to work on your car (he has a new apprentice coz he is so busy, seriously the phone rings every 10mins). Nothing against the apprentice he's spent the last 2 arvo's servicing my work van but its Jamie that has all the knowledge.

He's always working on performance cars and has very good rates (compared to those city performance workshops).

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      No no. The Audi boost controller was made from a Norgren (or equivalent) 1/4" pneumatics pressure regulator, a similar (looking) relief valve (to create the "gated" function to keep the boost off the actuator until wanted) and a check valve plumbed in parallel with those two, to relieve the boost back out of the wastegate line after the boost event was over. It was the inclusion of that check valve, used sort of "backwards" as a relief valve, that was the stroke of genius that made the rest of it work nice. The only reason I stoped using it was because it was like any other manual/pneumatic boost controller - it's settings changed from season to season. The Profec is much more consistent winter to summer.

      A couple of months of gentle driving will be fine. There is a risk that you will kill it. A heavy workout will probably kill 3rd gear. Continued use will wreck the input shaft bearing.

      That's because R34 RB25DET is a pull clutch gearbox. I have that clutch, behind 25Neo, in front of R33 gearbox. I have brand new R34 turbo gearbox, in a box (cardboard) in the shed right now, and it will be getting used with the same engine and clutch, because I also have, in a much smaller box next to it, the front plate to convert the new box to push clutch.

      Are you planning to ever come on boost with the RB25DET? The torque of the motor alone will break the little box. It's not a matter of if, it's when.
