that's falcon... getting my lowered r32 out there is nothing short of a miracle...

not only its steep its also narrow with walls running at each side so theres not much room for going sharp turns and similar maneouvres

anyone else wants to rant about their driveway lol?

i hate my driveway.

Apart from it being uneven bricks it has a power pole about 30cm from the driveway on the driverside pulling in , which results in some epic 3 wheeling action as my suspension is stiff as shit

and this is how it is when i reverse it in

i have a rounded gutter to drive in and out of.

then i have to go down hill to the garage where it then levels out almost instently leaving very little room to get a car into the garage without ripping the front bar off on the step up from the driveway to under the garge.

ive also ripped the front bar off the old 32 on my gf's driveway. the corner of the front bar cought on the end of the drive way and held it while i kept driving back.

great fun

have to take a photo of flicks driveway to add to this thread next time i down there. Its like a hmungously mutated speedhump, couldnt get her old 32 out in 1 go, had to back out angled(concrete fene on either side so not much room to angle either) then go forward and turn to create more angle. Now that was a pain in the ass!

My driveway was fairly steep... I called up the council told em the driveway was too steep for my new car so they came round and re-did it free of charge! City of Port Adelaide Enfield FTW!

That's what im trying to do... already wrote to them today and now waiting for answer.. im in west torrens tho, but i heard councils are pretty helpful with these things

    • 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.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • 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
