pete,

if you wanna cover the cost of 2 missed weekends (the best paying shifts of the week) so that i can come along on this awesome road trip (which i was embarking on straight after a 10 hour shift) i would be more than happy to do so.

much love,

dave.

so the 2 for 1 tuesdays at the "house of pleasure" still dont pay as much as your weekend regulars?

I thought for sure that was a great idea. LOL

lol, those tuesday tightarses? they barely have enough money to make a phone call.

tight arses, I was told i would have to pay extra for them :):):worship:

ill give you a discount sweet cheeks. :O

I thought the 2 for 1 was a winner for sure (except for the mother daughter combination)

you serious? mother daughter is the best combo ever...

... well, second to sister sister.

That turbo you have there Abe is not a XR6T rear, as they have 'Ford' Stamped on them, not garret.

I was talking about the flange pattern, not the actual rear housing.

I emailed HPIAB today about some prices on some items. Haven't received a reply yet, could anyone tell me a good place to get copper washers from for braided lines, and a turbo manifold spacer. I am thinking ATS, maybe?

I went with the slightly bigger rear housing as that was what about 75% of people are recommending in the Forced Induction thread, and also a few tuners i have spoken to. As it is also going in my daily, it gets driven to and from work, so the speed limit is 60-100kmph, so i saw no point in having a turbo that spools too early. But if my engine dies, it has given me some head room for when i rebuild the RB25.

Shame i wasn't online to see your photoshop Andrew, serves me right to attempt doing my tax via etax.

On the topic of dished chromies..how about these bad boys?

twink... no. those will look awesome on an old mustang, goat, charger, or anything similar... but an import...?

amazing how quickly the level of conversation drops on here LOL

lol. throw some flange and rear housings into the mix and watch the boys go crazy...

... mmmmm... flange.

Some pics of new acquisitions for my new toy.

Plus a CF intake tube yet to arrive. Plus LEDs for all internal lights, parkers and number plate lights. Plus lots and lots of little bits and pieces.

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
