Not yet.

Still waiting to get the car inspected by justcars, then Im going to get it inspected independently.

Process might take about 2-3 weeks as everyone is closed or on holiday.

Mechanical is covered under insurance, so if its a blown engine then yeah new engine rebuild

or write off.

OS 3 litre and TO4Z...

GT2860R on RB25, what are peoples thoughts?

why? what are your goals for the car / motor?

2860 will give good response but choke up top and be a little frustrating

Why, because Grant gave it to me as a mystery turbo and I worked out that's what it is. Had a bit of a look around and found pretty much exactly what you've said. Seems like it's very strong in the low to mid range but drops off to sfa in the top end. Chucked it on ebay instead. I'll just wait and go 2835 like I'd planned to instead.

Hardly anyone out anyway, just came back from drying off car. Nothing but really slow and irritating drivers.

hate those drivers.. was stuck behind them trying to catch up to you earlier today lol

I was thinking of heading down Prinny (bro) later with a few of the ford forum boys, but yeah they'll be major cop action later.

For those of you round Donny (bro) there were a couple of HP cars between the Blackburn Rd exit on the Eastern and Doncaster road. On the access road.

Ive been lookong out since ive been driving around all night - i haven't seen one police car yet! I must be missing them everywhere lol

MERRY CHRISTMAS dream boats: (NSFW BOOBS ETC) hopefully I don't get banned this aint too bad right?

Disappointing. Was hoping for whole picture instead of link.

family members on both sides are away this week, so had all my family dinners/lunches earlier in the month. leaving an uneventful day tomorrow. So im chilling playing Pokemon Snap via an emulator until I get sleepy.

Its better than watching carols

Merry Christmas wastelanders.

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
