True, but i have had such little experience driving a manual. I figure if this is going to be a keeper, i could always do a manual conversion later when i get a bit more confidence.

youre lookin at a fair amount of dollars for an rb25 manual conversion, best to save the money and effort.

:EDIT: good spot luke, didnt even see that.

When we first spoke to the seller about organising a pre purchase inspection, i had organised it for Morpowa. He then came back and said he couldn't do it that day. He said he didn't mind coming down my way to boostworx. He said he had most of the work done there. Maybe im just being given the run around.

this is the first ove been online all day! so ner :D

took the rolla out for drive today, she uses about 1/4 tank to 200kms which i dont think is too bad really :(

however, the spark plugs are rooted so ill be changing them in a couple of days time!

yeah for a lil carbi creature mine goes pretty hard if she wants too lol and being manual is a bonus aswell. the interior on mine is very mint as, there is a little hole on the drivers seat but thats about it really, rest of the car is pretty clean, had new tyres on too

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
