i was thinking this too the other day, but cause i now work saturdays, i'd prefer if it was on a sunday. i was thinking of something like a photo session, like out the front old parliment house, down near the lake, where we can get on the grass, take some pics, then go for a cruise along cotter rd or where-ever......?

Hey Cool. Can stay at mine o'night Sat if you want that is.

I'll let you know, thanks for the offer [sounds good].

BTW I saw a certain GTR the other day, don't think it would be running too good with the air filter pods and such in the boot........any deadline on completion yet???

This Sunday is a bit short notice for most people Shaun.

As for Route.....why not start at the Museum (meet point) then head up Parks Way to Coppins Crossing turn off?

Head down there and then make our way onto Uriarra Road (right hand turn). This will lead us (the more exciting way) to the Cotter BBQ area where we could stop and have lunch/food/break.

Those who want to depart at this point can take the short route home while those who are game can continue onto Tharwa and even further beyond (the roads after Tharwa are just awesome).

You'd be looking at about an hours worth of driving (not including breaks and stops).

It'd also be great if peeps could get their hands on CB's for such an event.

EDIT: Hell, if time permits we could even pull into Tidbinbilla Reserve or the Deep Space Tracking Station and grab some awesome pictures. If you wanted to do this you'd need to start around 1330 - 1430 to leave enough time before dusk (those pesky roos).

Dyno day would be good. 4wd dyno this time would get a bigger turnout.

Theres only one in Canberra, and they arnt overly "friendly" with pricing, which is why its always 2WD unfortunately :dry:

    • 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
