saw that ad, was sick!! :D Feck 75k is very impressive, my dad is regretting buying his Sti because of these 45 AMG's, if only we could go back three months :(

trust bmw to say that :P

Wow that's awesome man, drove a 250 petrol a few months back felt the same, albiet it had more features, as my mum's c200. :S but then drove a e250 cdi coupe and saw the difference, these 250's pull hard i'm sure you're coupe would be quicker than the e!

Mines a sedan, I have no time for the coupes anymore lol.

But yeah, 2.1litre twin turbo diesel, you would hope it hauls lol they are definitely not slow!

It left the missus rx8 for dead lol

Lee- nah they don't come in manual... But eh.

ahhk fair enough yeah the sedans are so comfortable defintely don't regret mum getting a sedan. haha dat mercedes torque just makes you laugh tho, plus amazing how it can deliver surprising performance whilst returning like 5.oL/100km!

Long line of cars trying to get into the cardigan street multi level car park, after a half hour of snails-pace movement, my turn comes to get up into the barrier bit...usually I come in from another turn in so there's minimal scrapeage...but yeah drive in, car can't get onto the ramp...so after 5 mins of struggletown the car park employees had to come and push my car up the ramp... :|

No idea lol normally about 150 for skylines I think though. Never bothered to get the wagon done with all it's glass.

Yeah the quote I got back this morning was $170 for 35% supply and install. Good enough for me... Considering you guys say he does good work...

    • 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
