If it was a gunmetal 32 4dr, twas me, but I didn't toot. I had the right hand lane to myself, the middle lane was slow in taking off from the lights so the car behind him might have tooted him.

I did see you and went to wave, but didn't get a clear shot of you through the cars.

Did you notice the boys in blue a bit further up the road?

Yeah, that's the one. R32, sorry, was in a bit of a haze. Sounded nice cruising past on boost though.

I saw that, they were talking to a guy in a commodore with big rims. i've been pulled over on that stretch myself so i know how he feels.

saw a black 33 in bruce at about 7pm last night, gave him a thumbs up.. he seemed apprciative (i was in my friends imprezza wagon)

saw a white 33 trying to park in the carpark behind bob jayne on nettlefold street this morning at about 750am..dude.. looked so unhealthy (the low car on that "Road")... there is a carpark about 100m further up the road that is free.. well parts of it are. I wouldnt even park there if i owned an excel.

Spotted you this time on William Hovell, I was a bit back and in the other lane, around 7:30am.

I saw you too, the other day your lane moved faster, i was wating for you to get closer. I also saw a blue 32 GTR and a black 32 GTST near kings ave/parkesway (front of russell offices) this morning and got 2 waves (2 people in the car) from a grey 34 4 door on morsehead drive, they were stuck in the traffic jam, i waved back hoping it was me you were waving at hehe

    • 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
