yeh thats what im thinking matty..

also, just picked up my rolla from workshop to have a $710 bill..

what was done?

diff locked, vlturbo pump supplied by workshop)(its external so 5min job), indicator switch ($30), oil filter ($15), tighten back brakes (handbrake still doesnt lock), compression test..

7.5hrs labour to do that?? $500 just for labor? is this correct or should i not go there again?

If it was 7.5 hrs then $500 is a good price. I pay around the $85+gst mark per hour

I have nfi about mechanics so I dont know about the time, but given the list of stuff u got done, it wouldnt surprise me if that were about right

-D

i was gonna say, whats coming next :)

It'll be another 180 to do that 25 conversion on. with all the parts that would be coming out to do the conversion i would be basically parting out the whole car so I'll sell the current 180 and start again with another stocker.

for anyone thats keen, a few of us are going to the Lakes hotel to watch the game tonight.

shouldve got a set that are base height adjustable. run as low as you want without having a crazy uncaptive spring.

but yeah, run it a little high, bout the height of heslo's car would be ideal, low cars sucks.

    • 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.
