hey all was a great cruise, was awesome to drive along other lines of class and power. Sorry i had to bail so early (two tone silver GTSt from Geelong Bunnings) i had to go to another cruise

Big thanx to Asplicit for helpin me out when my hose came off, damn stupid finger cut it in the worst place too.

Leewah your car is a machine and its even more respectble that u drive it daily, nice one !

See you all at the next one !

I had a great day on the cruise, the weather was perfect!!

Didn't get to speak to many SAU members as I joined the cruise at Bunnings and was one of the last down at Apollo Bay (I had the black S13 Silvia).

The stretch of the GOR between Lorne and Apollo Bay was easily the most fun, I was driving pretty hard through some bits (too bad about all the slow tourists!)

In two or three weeks I and a few other Geelong people will be going on another GOR cruise to Apollo Bay, possibly Lavers Hill.

If anyone is interested in coming you are most welcome to. :)

It'll probably be a smaller cruise with less cars, but if enough interest is shown I'm happy to make it a HUGE one with the Nissan Silvia club attending.

    • 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
