Really? I've never heard a bad thing about Jim Berry or his clutches. Can you give me some examples? PM if necessary.

na cant be bothered trolling through many threads about clutches, from memory possibly people either not driving it correctly and chewing out flywheels or starting with too thin a fly, or wimps not liking a slightly heavier pedal from standard

Thanks to your R32 I cant bare to turn the key in mine anymore :laugh: hahaha

anyway, did nightshift last night, got bored:

also, spotted this on Wilkinson Road Gawler River on my way home:

I bought one from a chick in NSW for $450, second hand, only to have my mechanic tell me that it was 100% f**ked. The springs were loose and there were cracks on the pressure plate. I contacted the chick (who is NSW exec) and denied that it was broken and said that it was fine when she removed it from her car (even tho she admitted it was slipping at 350kw).

$450 down the drain from a 'trusted' sau member, I was pretty shitty. I'm considering sending it to Jim to rebuild but cant afford it at this moment.

Not sure if it was the full monty or mini monty, but it has been the single biggest waste of money ever spent via an SAU purchase.

-D

my 1st sau purchase was for a S2 r34 turbo, ended up getting a shitty S1 r33 turbo.

$600 down the drain, seller refused to answer an pm's or phone calls.

grr

since then hasnt been an issue, plus I sell for cheaps so that keeps karma my way

anyone know the EXACT process of gettin sa reg for in interstate car?

go to transport sa and fill out a form and thats about it. they'll issue you with sa plates unless you specify customs

i believe u only need to go to regency if the car is defected interstate or unregistered. if its registered interstate its just a simple paperwork/numberplate swap.

-D

I transferred a QLD Delica over which was registered and not defected, took it to Vehicle Inspections for them to take a look over it(numbers check etc.) and got a form which says its all good been checked over, took that around the corner to Transport SA and filled out the transfer form paid fees rego and got the SA plates....

correct Vu you will need a vehicle inspection but its not @ regency they check matching numbers and tint and no major leaks takes all of 10 mins checking time and back to regency to pay for plates and vis check

Naww :)

In other news, I know of one of the guys who died in the bomb blast in Enfield :laugh:

did he seem to you to be a candidate for the darwin awards?

from the looks of the blast it makes me think one of them mustve lit a ciggie before planting the bomb

lol

yeah would have to add a clause if you get there and dont like it then you pay him for his time to come and get you and catch a plane back home

and go for a drive back to his house to finalise paper work and see where he lives :):laugh:

    • 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
