CURSE YOU SKIPPPPPPPPPY !

Spotted a Ferrari yesterday (Not sure what type - but it looked pretty awesome). I think it was the 420 Italia? (I don't know my Ferrari's). Had some BMW dropkick cut me off in my lane just so he could sit behind it and broom past it (Mind you it was a 1995 5 series -_-)

Spotted a silver R33 with staggered bonnet vents and a dint in the back :P He normally rocks up to Friday night meets. I was looking in the wrong direction as he drove passed, heard his turbo and turned my head. Was to late for a wave :(

Sorry mate.

Spotted shell's 34 in the corner when I went to pick up the '33 from the body shop. Still a nice looking 34 even after skippy paid a visit :)

Ohh so I'm guessing it hasn't been touched yet then? I was wondering if I should go out there for a chat but I didn't know if they'd rather just deal with the insurance company and not have me annoying them.

Canberra plates or NSW? I must admit, I have never seen / cruised with a "Luxury" car on the highway :( Always have wanted too.

I "cruised" with a yellow Lambo on the Hume once, and when I say cruised, I mean for about 10 seconds because he was doing under 100km/h so everyone was overtaking him but slowing down to gawk as they went past lol. Man it sounded/looked good though.

    • 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
