want to paint them up as bright as that (with the valley cover and cam gear cover in black)

i dont feel confident doing them myself, happy to chuck you some cash to do it though :)

AAA powder coaters at Lonsdale, it will look 11ty billion times better than a spray can and be much more scratch resistant, and they will blast them first so it will come up mint. :)

I suspect broke a good behavior driving clause, sorry to hear but boys will be boys time to take the R off the road and make it better :ermm: or kill your liver :P

Your on the money there Madaz, Had already appealed my license back in 2007 - I was so close to getting off my P's too.

I'm thinking a combo of pwnting my liver and give the R some $$ love lol.

Biggest pain of the whole situation is bus/train to work everyday for the next 12 months lol

    • 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
