got my car serviced yesterday and while my car was on the hoist we found out that my right cv boot is blown and there was oil leaking everywhere... can i still run on the track with this condition?? (i couldn't find anyone who was willing to recondition my cv boot @3pm on saturday of long weekend... :) )

I will be there with Unique Zed with new R32 GTR diff 4.3 ratio which should be interesting as first time out with lots of changes. I think may run out of legs down the straight going from 3.7 diff ratio to 4.375. Will be good for Wakefield and Oran though. Weather looks like will be perfect and public holiday should be a big one.

Does the BBQ accept Green prawns and maybe some egg plant or only snags for the V and Coke drinkers?

Join the club with my speed limiter still in place :)

is there anyone just turning up hoping that someone will drop out so they can run on the track?

i *might* drop out thanks to the cracked right cv boot...

keyword : *might* ... i really wanna run this time coz 5 of my friends r running too... but if it doesn't look good, i might just have to drop out... and fix the damn thing for next track day on the 24th july...

This cold weather is giving me some trouble, noticed pinging earlier, been out and stuffed in some octane boost, hope that will sort it, first time I've tried it.

My track tyres were showing 18 psi after 5 kms from cold. So put them up to 36 psi, but might lower them again on the track. What kind of psi are most people running with 225/50/17s ?

About to take out the stero, shed a few kgs. Easier than going on a diet.

See you there ! can't wait !

Popped the bonnet to do an oil change today and found a half dozen or so well done snails on my rocker covers.

Might have to drive a little faster so these bastards can't catch me!

Pete - I'm up for helis as usual, you bringing the gtr or the PIMPMOBILE?

    • 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.
