Hi all QLD owners.

Ive just bought my first R32 within a couple of week of moving out here (i think you guys would call me a pom) just writing to say G'day and if any local brisbane owners see a red R32 blasting about give me a flash :) ...(of your bloody headlights :no: )

Hi all QLD owners.

no we'd call you a whinging pom!! :P;):)

welcome aboard mate, hope to see you round,

m

welcome!

have you been to australia before?

you'll love the birsbane weather although its just about to get rediculously humid and will shit you to tears in december/january

got any more info on your car? pics?

oh, and expect some pom-bashing (verbally, of course) in the coming months when we take the ashes back...!

cheers,

Warren

Hmm ashes back... we will see...

Never been Aus before but was always a life long ambition to set up out here so me and the fiance decided the time was right to sell up and make the big move....

the cars a RB20DET R32 the colour is kind of red with a slight gold flip to it... i believe it has a GTR kit.. modifacations are-Full JIC coilovers and all suspension bushes have been upgraded , on the power side all it has is a air filter and full exhaust system(soon gona change).

the car has also got a hell of a lot of stickers on it wich in the very near future im thinking of taking off as in my opinion they are a little over the top

    • 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
