I posted on here a few weeks back that a mate and i were making my new cooler pipes for my new turbo that i got on, well there finally done. i took advice from ppl on here and made a join to get to the oil cap easily. the first pick is my old setup with my cheap T70 that i blew up and the rest are with my new gt3040. (i have put 2 vac lines on there one just needs to be rewelded it just sits beside the other, and i have not plumbed in the bov as yet but thats easily done). I noticed i have heaps more room near the pod filter and its so much more neater. i havent tried it out for lag etc etc as my car has no.6 gone and is getting rebuilt in the next few months.

All up it was 3 donuts (well tad less) and bout a metre and a half of straight pipe, allow a good 2 days for this, we needed one to test and spot weld and another to weld properly and fit back up.

all up cost me $80 plus your hose clamps and hose which i had. you also need just a thin bit of pipe for vacuum hose and i used a bit of 16mm pipe for the vac back to the plenum (and a bit of paint but get that from super cheap). cheap alternative, and that was for both sides. call your exhaust shop and just get prices on the donuts and your straight pipe.

      It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪

      And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil

      Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
