its all going well ant! its been what... 3 months now? ouch :thanks: shes been on hold waiting for me to make some decisions... but they have been half made, so we should start moving again.. i reckon another month :D

hahaha monie I know the feeling rebuilds always take longer than you expect, feels like you are making progress until you realise another 3 months has slipped by.....I am doing 4 rb26s atm, bits everywhere

Here's a tip : 2JZ-GTE conversion :)

Turbos on the wrong side

yeah.. thats exactly how it is!!!! i actually thought it'd take 2 months! how wrong i was :( i just want her back already! lol!

so ETA at least another month hey Mona?

Well - at least it'll be done right so in the long run - it will be worth it :)

The long wait makes jumping in the car a true excitment everytime :P

hahhaa. how come so many duncs?!

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • 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.
