hey guys,

basically i need a drift wing... but i am going to modify it myself and install an led brake light.

can anyone tell me where to get one besides carmate or are they all the same fit?

if ppl say carmate is shi* with bodykits etc. then surely theyre d wings must be a bit flimsy

give your input! i wanna go buy one today lol

cheers

Another vote for no re:Carmate.

Buy somewhere local where you can see what you're buying 1st hand.

I'll never again buy a fibreglass/carbon fibre/aftermarket bodykit without seeing it in person..I've learnt my lesson..

I'm not gonna say anything bad about car mate.

There is this place that I coulda sworn sounded very similar to car mate that I wouldn't ever go to though. hmmm... I wonder what the name is.

The people at that place are arrogant pricks, have shit quality parts, shit service if you try and bring stuff back.

If you have a problem, you will not get a refund. Simple as that.

Even me wanting to swap for something else in the store, took about 5 hours of telling the prick off

The guys at said place also stink like asian fish.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      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
