i was watching targa :D

you were better off. I Had a squiz on saturday. Considering it wasn't wet there was a few offs!

powercruise was shithouse I reckon, the last 2 were reasonable. I wont bother going back ever again.

bugger that. too much exspense for too little race time. I'm thinking along the lines of super series. targa b sorta thing. mm maybe in a year or 2.

then again there's a few stacked up targa cars at work that would go cheap lol

would be fun as i reckon, out of interest how much have to set aside to make your car compliant to targa regulations funz? Saw around 8 skylines all up in targa and on the woodbridge hill there was an SL/R5000 on the back of a tow truck with a sore nose.

biggest cost that ive encountered atm is rollcage and seats.. and thats not including the cost of entry fee, new semi's to run with and general maintenance to run the car and also the fact i need to buy/get built a hi flow turbo :) all this stuff here is looking at 8k+ BUT i plan on running the car in hillclimbs and track days all the time so im not just spending the dosh for targa :D

www.targawrestpoint.com.au has all the regs on what you can do :-)

Good luck getting the 350 passed for Targa with the engine mods!!!
he doesnt have any engine mods :S lol
Just spotted some BS^^^^^^^^^ :P

Also saw the red R35 this morning in Salamanca

what BS you talking about lol... me rather confused lol

BS is IN BOLD ya computer tweaking geek!!!

YUP! pretty sure i remember seeing this car about at powercruise!

Should of come and said hi :D

Some dude named chris got some footage of me so i asked for the rest and here it is!

and that footage shows exactly why I couldn't be bothered with Power Cruise.

Get out there on a proper track day with only 4 or so cars and full use of the track...

Much more fun if you ask me :blink:

And yes I am friends with the guy whos car the footage is taken from and also the guy in the "Fking RED Holden" as well.

    • 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.
