Ok I'm confused, where on the bypass? There are very obvious speed cameras between cooper and the next exit heading north, in fact the whole underside of the bridge is lit up in pink neon at night.. can't miss them (theyre on both sides too). I don't know of any other cam's but I haven't been past cooper much. The tiny ones at the rusty old bridge before Cooper.. I was under the impression they were safety cameras rather than revenue raising?

Heading NTH up the ring rd - cameras are:

just after exiting the westgate to ring rd, just before McMobil exit (1)... then after McMobil at Western Hwy exit (2).. then keilor park underpass, its on a bend (3), then as you head up the hill under pascoe vale rd (4).

Oh and a recent addition is at Millers Rd on the westgate in both directions.

From the westgate northbound they are definately not point to point but the one at Keilor park is a variable speed limit one in line with the new variable speed signs.. I don't know about Melbourne Rd/Geelong... but I did see camera technicians sitting in fold up chairs behind the fuse? boxes at every camera on the princes fwy a month ago or so tho :P

Anyway I'm on the ring rd everyday and I haven't had a ticket in 4 years.

And without turning this into a speed camera thread.. does anyone know whats up with the citylink toll gates? Around xmas they replaced a row of cameras at each gate and we suspect they are speed cameras.. but.. not 100% sure on that.

Anyhoo have fun guys and take it easy... just watch out for the cameras when you have to put your foot down for 2 secs to avoid someone merging into you....

If the rusty old bridge is the one I am thinking of with the two cameras just before you go under it standing on poles, they the new ones are past that towards the city and look exactly the same but appear after at least one bridge, possibly two or more. HTH

Since the all the Drift boys are coming to DECA this time I think there's a few people coming to watch the entertainment.

If we have time at the end we'll event let them loose for a bit of a free entertainment session.

wtf 5:30am meet? fark didn't realise it was that far, i thought like maybe 2-2.5 hours from my place... grrr

its about 1.5hrs from epping and entrants have to be there at 8am so you wouldnt want to leave much later than 5:30 anyway. Next time you'll know to go up on fri night hehe :)

I just called to confirm my booking for tonight and tomorrow. I suggest if you're in the 8:30 cruise you call and find out what cabin you're in as they've had some extensions and things have been shuffled a bit. They'll be in bed by the time we get there, so keys need to be organised to be left in the cabin.

I was also asked to remind people to drive at walking pace and not be too loud.

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.

      I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things

      I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt

      So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.

      Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
