Oh, and this track bitch still has its wheels pointing in different directions, so there are still some things to do tomorrow morning.

Hopefully they'll still let me on the track if I miss the morning scrutineering session :P

It's going to be about zero degrees at 8am anyway. Way too cold to be standing trackside. I'll arrive after the sun comes out :O

you just worry about tomm.

in good time.

Too late then.... I've got my eye on another one that I'm going to see for the second time this weekend.

I've waited for your photos for 2 weeks now... Can't be that hard to get someone to take some snapshots for you :P

no biggie...im not that desperate to sell...ive been home only a few days...spending time with my young family has been my priority as ive not seen them for nearly 3 months...and photo's of it in the dark when i get home from work would be pretty pointless....ll take some on the weekend if you are still in the market.

lol the threat of "the photo" is probably worse than the photo itself.

but paul is dead right, all you need to worry about is the car tomorrow, will be great to see 2 new sau dedicated track cars debut on the same day!

even if the car explodes you'll have a better day than most of us. us poor suckers that work on fridays

Oh Harsh,,so very Harsh,,,It won't explode,,it's basically a stocker.

Thinking I might bring my Pov1 and throw it in Andrews car so he can relive some footage.

Neil.

i hope it dosn't explode, but i'd much rather be freezing my nuts off at a track, than freezing my nuts off at work.

he said as the valve guide dropped into the bore :)

jks

have heaps of fun and take some happy snaps

Well.... Car didn't make it to the track.

Problem with the clutch apparently, will know more next week I guess.

Punted the Beemah around instead, which was fun... Great handling car, but needed MUCH stickier tyres to get some real corner speed.

Even though it sucked the GTR didnt make, it, it was still good to cath up mate and the BMW sounds hot as!

When I was flagging at the flip flop, the sound of the motor around that part of the track was awesome!

    • 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
