I can appreciate the amount of time and money he must have spent on it.

Just out of curiosity, if I dug a massive hole and shovelled 2 skip-bins' worth of $5 notes into it, could you appreciate the amount of time and money I spent doing it?

Assuming you weren't allowed to go and dig it all up afterwards, of course.

No because thats just a waste of money.

This guy obviously has a different taste in modifying vehicles to what I do. He's spent a lot of time and money preparing the car to satisfy his tastes, which i can admire and respect even though his car doesn't particularly appeal to me, its plain to see he has put some effort into it.

Being a cockhead and throwing money away in a hole using a shovel is another matter entirely :P

How do you know that my hobby isn't burying treasure and living out my pirate fantasies? Or I'm a furry, and burying stuff is foreplay before I go shag my partner while we're both wearing dog costumes? Different tastes, etc....

All I'm saying is that appreciation can only go so far. I appreciate guys who build track-focused Integras, even though I don't like FWD. I appreciate people who are into hang gliding, even though I'd never strap myself to an oversized kite and jump off a cliff.

This, on the other hand....taking a reasonable car and a reasonable amount of cash and coming back with something unreasonable. He could have built a car like Shonen's. Instead, he built something that looks like a dog ate a paint box and then vomited all over it.

We could sit here and argue on technicalities all day, but that would be taking the thread off topic. Bottom line is its a subjective opinion, and neither of us are wrong because its all about personal perception of the situation.

PS. Fur-Fag... KAWAII!!! ^_^ kekekekekkeke desu desu desu desu desu desu desu let us continue this on /b/.

Hey its on fire...oh no its not :P

Seriously James it's ass and no just subjectively, technically as well. There is no cohesion at all, I cant figure out what the idea is...probably none. Roll cage and a big screen TV...WTF! 5inch taco yes taco mmmm mexican food, in the passenger footwell, yellow and black leather with matching yellow dash surrond with a 300k speedo :P . Man this thing is all over the place then top it of with the tail light swap and, what are they, GT-C Volks and the ghey flames. Man needed someone to tell him when he started to STOP! and have a think or buy a copy of option or hyper rev or HPI and "get on the trolley".

In the end it is his money and it is his expression so meh, just hope it doesnt park in my street

    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • 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
