Hi guys,

I'm trying to help a friend of mine who's a motoring journalist for a Japanese magazine at the moment.

He's italian, but lives in Japan and sells his storys to both Japanese and Italian magazines. He's looking at selling a "Fresh from Japan" style article to some of the Aussie and NZ magazines and I wondered if anyone had, phone or e-mail addresses where I can contact the main magazines as I'm sure they'd be interested and he's a wicked photographer and gets to see allsorts that we don't and he gets to see them first alot of the time too.

And best of all, he's a GTR driver too :P

Here's a sample of some of his pics from my site, it also shows the type of events he attends as well as the traditional test drives. Have a look at http://www.gtrcentral.com then go to the overseas section.

Any help is much appreciated.

Wow Shell, thanks very much.

That's exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks.

I've read zoom and speed and I think they're the sort of mag that would be interested, are the rest the main sorta import performance magazines that are around ?

4 sounds OK for Aussie but I would have thought you'd have more, as we only really have a couple at best and one of those is debatable.

What's you've given so far is gold though Shell, thanks again.

no probs at all Fraser :)

Speed and HPI are probably your best bet. HPI is totally about imports and Speed is mostly imports as well as rexys etc...

Zoom is more technical, "build ups" etc (as you would know).

Motor and Wheels are similar to each other...except that Motor is totally performance car orientated, where I don't think Wheels is as much (I think, i don't buy it, except for the issue where this website got mentioned :) ). They're not import mags though. But they do feature nice photography and car related stories from overseas, so would be worth a try for what you want.

I really can't think of any others??? They really are the only main ones, as far as i can think of atm...

    • 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
