Ah man but you'll get to drive around in an Evo soon yeh?

Yes and No.

Depends on when a good car comes up and if I can get it at the right price.

Always a poor showing from us ;)

So poor, even when people have expressed interest to do something on the weekend, nothing happens :P

We need your guidance our Great Leader :worship:

I advise we all pack up and move to coastal areas where the car scene is still strong! Sure they've pretty much killed it off in the retirement village of a town we live in a.k.a Toowoomba but I know for a fact she's pretty strong / unchanged in other areas with shitloads of day/night cruises and meets every month! Some of the coastal/interstate fellas on my facebook do runs and meets in their liners every week!

Need to move there peeps....that's what I'm doing. You can come back to Toowoomba when you're ready to die / chase kids of your front lawn :P

Toowoomba could have a good scene if we were motivated enough to do cruises

Ah Chris, I've talked to a couple peeps about it and what it boils down to is that the guys are just too scared to take their cars out around here. You see all these nice rides during rush hour but t-bar is pretty much dead on a sunday afternoon these days (where a couple years ago there would have been plenty of JDM and american/italian muscle out and about. They're scared about driving around in a convoy and even more nervous about hard parking. It's sad hey?

I wish things were different.

On the plus side though I did get my wheels done so now she has 4 glossy black shoes! Now we just need to spray the Silvia black and then it's photoshoot time if anyones keen for a bit of a pose ;)

Might be getting a professional photographer later in the year too (speaking of photos)...some of ya's might be up for a groupie! He's that Hackenberg guy / NPHO on facebook. Killer photos!

Conversely, stories of the 5oh being tougher on simple things like front mounts, bov's and pod filters in brissy/GC, are well versed. I am sure there would be contingent in these areas that feel just as paranoid as you do, Tom.

I went for a nice putt on Sunday arvo (cause nothing happened :P) and don't recall seeing one cop car and have never had a drama with them for a long while.

I used to go everywhere in the old girl and only got pulled over once in 4 years here in tbar.

That was for suspected BOV cos he heard the flutter. They were nice and let me go shortly after a visual check.

Don't be an arse and don't do silly things = no trouble from nobody :)

BTW, saw the Clint mobile going down Hume bout 5pm today. Just turned onto Hume from Margaret in the "new old girl".

Looked very clean and understated...just the way you'd want it to be these days for all you paranoid peeps LOL

Going to scope out 3 evos in Bris tomorrow. Hope they live up to expectations :thumbsup:

    • 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
