i dont have an oil cooler, but i have an oil temp gauge that i always keep an eye on. once oil starts getting up near 110, i start warming down. if it looks to be too hot i wont be driving, but ill come out for a look regardless :glare:

Id come, but im pretty sure my car wouldnt last too long. All things considered, i have no monitoring systems (bar stock items), and i have no doubt id blow my turbo at the very least. But id definately come out for a look.

thought i'd give this thread a bump as i now have my new gearbox and clutch in so i want to head out, really should get brakes and oil cooler first but i figure they can wait til the next one.

I'll be there as long as i can get ahold of my mates car trailer and its not over about 32-33 degrees.

Salad - Will you be heading out? Maybe change the thread title to get a bit more interst, hehe!

I'll be heading out as long as the temp is below 32 that day.

I really should double check my brake pads before the day too LOL. Apart from that, clutch tyres everything ready to go but the brakes. can't wait!!

Nah, I wont be out at this one, so it makes me really not keen to try organise it now. BUT, I will do if there is more interest.

But I can just see this being organised and it turning out to be a really hot day and most people pulling out, which was fine for me before when I was driving, but to head out there to spectate and have about 4 people show up is a bit different...

nooooooooooooooooooooo Jan 12th is Schutzenfest - you should all be coming out to the SAU meet at that!

Much better than sitting out in the sun all day at flyville (there are trillions of them out there!) watching cars blow themselves up in 40 degree heat! :)

I am planning to book my flight back to Adelaide for this event to test out my r32. How hot is it in Adelaide atm guys? Is it really that hot that I should be worried about? When is the next track day after the 12th of Jan?

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

    • 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
