As I'm sure the goss is out. Some of use knew...some of use thought they knew and to those who dont know...

Congrats to Powerplay at Drummoyne for bringing the only Z-Tune to Australia and best of all, make a track day out of it so we can see this thing up close and doing mach 1 down Oran park straight.

I had an awesome day (with one of the slowest cars...Who puts a R34 GTR V spec in Group 4?) Liz.....I think I owe you a six pack, we'll have to wait till times are published.

Weather was perfect and the day was almost incident free. I'm gonna go sleep for 12 hours now :D

You've been beaten to it by a different thread mate :D

I think we should all use that one for pics :(

But yeah, totally agree with the congrats for Powerplay

Im halfway through uploading pics

Nah Sam, you got me by half a second. 6 pack coming your way!

There was a 1.37 recorded under my name but htat was when McGill was driving the silvia (i wasn't far behind him though with a 1.38!). I didn't know how much fun i could have in an NA silvia, but damn that thing can corner!

Anyhow, mission accomplished for the day, by the time I left the track, all engine warning lights were on, burnt oil smoke coming through the air cond vents, busted coilovers knockin on every bump... ready for it's build up.

Damn it was an awesome day! So hot out there.

thanks to jo, alistair, tosh and rob!

Haha sorry about that being in grp 4 thing. It was totally our fault, me and Blitz requested to go in the same group and Joanne must have rearranged the groups the only way possible. Putting us in group 4...

Then Blitz didn't come...

So i was there by myself...

I think in a different group I wouldve had less holdups but ultimately I'm a noob so my time's would've still been pretty crap. Next time I'll know better...

Hi Kris,

I explained the groups to Nick ie: group 1-most experienced grading down to group 4-less experienced.

Nick actually requested that you both be put in group 4, thought it was a bit strange at the time.

Cheers

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
