i wanna put an andra approved roll cage in the 33gtst, lookin at just doing a 1/2 cage... is it possible to put it in without removing interior, and have the bars just comin through into the boot? also is there any chance of it being engineered in QLD, as its a company car, would be good to have this bit engineered as the rest of the car is...?

any ideas would be appreciated

weld in or bolt in? i'm fairly sure andra only require bolt in whereas aasa/fia require weld in

i called a mob kfc or kyc racing and they quoted me 3.5k for a street engineered & fia approved weld in cage

you may have to get the car registered as a 2 seater also, not sure, but ring qld transport and they'll tell you :domokun:

Talk to the local governing bodies and get the facts. Most of what you read here will be wrong ;)

In Vic/NSW you cant legally leave the back seats in the car and it must be re-registered as a 2 seater. Shoudl you ever want to get the car re-registered as a 4 seater then you have to again get the car engineered to ensure thats its safe to once again carry passengers.

    • 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. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
