so come back to the undercover parking to find some reject has jimmied off the badge on my grill on the r34 gtr. conveniently he's left the 2 screws sitting there attached to plastic so the retard had to break the badge to get it off. Why anyone would want to do that I still don't know but anyway he's got a lovely broken badge. didn't touch the one on the boot, guess those you can ebay for $10.

Now I have to find a new one, I think I've found the Nissan part number for it so I know what I want but how do I get it? Would nissan dealers locally have it or be able to get it for a reasonable cost? Also the retard has damaged my grill that the badge sits on (thank god he didn't really scuff the paintwork) so I might need a new grill insert. Anyone know how to get one of those too?

Thanks!

Sorry to hear about your badge, mate. Hope you get it sorted.

Off the topic, can you let us know which parking area that happened? So maybe if possible, some can avoid it. pm me if you want.

Thanks.

Lance: They should be fucking killed. No trial, no jury, straight to execution.

Vincent: Boy, I wish I could've caught him doing it. I'd have given anything to catch that asshole doing it. It'd been worth him doing it just so I could've caught him doing it.

Lance: What a fucker!

Vincent: What's more chickenshit than fucking with a man's automobile? I mean, don't fuck with another man's vehicle.

Lance: You don't do it.

Vincent: It's just against the rules.

yeah i just wish he did rock up at the same time I would have smacked him around!

don't usually take my car in to work but when I do I park undercover. This time I was at the concert hall undercover parking next to the family court in the city. REALLY annoyed, mainly because he scratched up my grill, the badge is less of a concern.

hmm wonder if they can get the grill...I called Northside and they quoted me $120 for the badge and $558 for the mesh!! Badge apparently in stock in Melb but grill has to be obtained from Japan.

man if I find these guys I would tear them a new one.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      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.
