in trems of quicker or price?

the mazda just needs intake and exhaust opened up and you have a very well handling, very fast, legal car, ready to go.

(albeit ugly as a hat full of assholes)

the gtst needs another few g's on handling and a few more on power. Until then it's just a bag of dicks that will get defected anyway

If I was a crazy bastard, I'd get hold of a Eunos 30X and put the BPD-T from a GTR into it. 154kw in an 1100kg car and that's before you get to tuning it. Apparently a fairly easy and common swap around the world.

In every way yes, but I'm a bit tall for an MX5 and they've been turbocharged heaps before. I'm sure you could get one of those Eunos for 1500-2000. Be a 5k weekend and beer project.

there are guys my height running MX5's

god knows how they manage it

Wait wut?

You live with your gf now? That was quick!

Where does she live? And when do we get to see her?

Technically living with? I guess... I'm there like 6 nights a week and go straight home there from work...

Royal Parade, Parkville, right opposite Princes Park... and literally walking distance to Garage Cafe ;)

When do you get to meet her... hmmmm, never? She's not into cars much at all, I might see if she wants to pop down to GC for dinner. She has lunch there sometimes since she works at Melbourne Uni, in the building that is directly opposite GC.

    • 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
