Hi all,

I installed my own mechanical center over a year ago and it has shitted me ever since with whining and backlash.

Seeing as the car is now permanently off the road and i have a waiting nugget requiring a transplant i figure i should get it done properly.

so who's had one done, by whom, and what am i looking at price wise?

I don't have a heap of time with work atm and i am based south of campbelltown for work so trips much further north than liverpool are a bit of a stretch, maybe as far as homebush if i can slip it in on a visit to the office.

thanks,

Dave

Had mine installed by Bosnjaks Engineering, David is the diff guy.

8 Blackfriar Pl Wetherill Park NSW 2164

ph: (02) 9757 2133

These guys set up cars for motorsport and really know their stuff. They preload the diff based on the torque of your car.

They are busy and I had to wait 6 weeks for them to fit me in, the install cost $900 - it was all worth it!

    • 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!
