my advice would be raise the budget a little and look for a really nice one. another $5K will get you a hell of a lot more car. conversely spending $5K on the car once you own it doesn't get you far at all. far better to spend more up front in order to spend less down the line.

went and saw a white 93 model today at moorebank, car was rubbish and the seller didnt budge on the price at all

then went to japlink again with my bro inlaw for a better inspection

theres another balck r32 1990 model, had brembos at the front, u can tell the car had a hard life, ABS was missing and re-routed haha said he could do it for 16 minus brembos

that silver 94 in the yard is ok, a palm tree branch fell on it over night so its got afew dints in the bonnett, previous owner was there so we had a chat about the car.

the other 1990 model is clean, but its 20 years old...

ive seen so manyy gtrs so far and none have realy impressed me, but i was looking for ones under 20 grand, guess i have to turn it up a notch and pay abit more to get something special like beer baron said

like i said dude, try not to go under 25k otherwise it will cost you in the long run. i travelled to japan from Adelaide and had a look for a GTR R32 , but eventually found one in Queensland one year after i started looking :( ,the key is just to be patient .

    • 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
