Late reply but no runs for me for a while guys. Will be very busy the next couple months at least until life settles down for me.

Will also have to reluctantly miss Nov 9th dude. I'll be sending someone off at the airport that day.

You will just have to make the Christmas party then :)

Next sunday ... doooo eeeeet .

Not many skyline cruises on

Well man just last week a mate of mine with 5 other imports got pulled into queensland transport for a full on defecting session that went for a couple hours.

News like that spreads....and equals less and less cruises. Has definitely put me off that's for sure :(

A cruise is meant to be something one enjoys....not an event where you try to spot fat c*nts in see-me vests in the middle of the road waving their glow in the dark butt plugs around.

Yeh I know what you mean man...I'm doing likewise. I've just been focusing on work stuffs while the car sits in the shed all week and only comes out for a grocery run lol.

Life would be quite chaotic for you at the mo eh? :D

Luckily, we are not in the same position as Brissy/Gold Coast guys when we go cruising around our area. We have passed numerous cops on our little jaunts with 5 or so cars and have never had any dramas. If you hit the limiter constantly in 60 zones and hang out at with the douchers on Thursday nights you deserve to be pulled up imo.

Totes down for a Queen Mary run, bit of different scenery would be good. Could be available on the public hol

Ah well I'm not too fussed about it all anymore Clint....I'm looking at pulling out of the car scene for a while and focusing on more important matters. Start investing in something that actually gets you some returns and not just takes your money never to be seen again haha....8 years of pouring money into these pits was just cray cray (for real real, not for play play)

Maybe get back in to the scene one day with a nice cruiser of some sort? I mean all I / we do is cruise around...so maybe a nice phat V8 land yacht of some sort....maybe even something along the lines of a hotrod or a Cobra for those Sunday drives in the hinterland ;) Something nice and raw - an easily accessible engine with 4 wheels attached!

Even fancy the occasionaly 240z and 928's

^ He still has it. I see it occasionally driving along hume st LOL.

Either he's heading home or perhaps going somewhere to get a feed?

To be honest, I don't think they're money pits. I don't drink nor do I smoke, plus there's also money going into the bank so some of my disposable income has to go somewhere. Spending your money/consumption keeps the economy going.

Although I have to admit, having any disposable income may be a thing of the past and I think you've understood my current situation pretty well, Tommeh ;)

Chris, I'll make it a point to attend Xmas at yours. Your family puts up the maddest feed!

all about having a healthy savings/bills/disposable ratio mateys. I have too many other extra curricular activities and habits in addition to the car to warrant spending considerable monies on it.

yes I do make an appearance on Hume st for my daily commute, when I use it for work. Gets so boring driving the spare car. Nick, you seem to spend a bit of time on Hume st yourself?

    • 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
