Was looking at getting one of my Tein SS coils revalved, as it's squeaking a lot (done ~40,000km on them). Spoke to the guys at Fulcrum who rebuild them and they said it's normal for SS to shit themselves after ~2 years of daily driving. So if you get anything more than that, I guess be happy :/

I'm not lol. Though I do acknowledge you're putting essentially racing parts on a street car, wear is always going to be an issue as the daily grind is tougher on some components than the track is :/

Mmm yeah I wasn't sure if it was the whole Tein range that started making noises guess it is

But they have a Pulsar class this year... and its every 2 years... i was excited for DECA but there will always be another one

Yer but 1 x DECA is more fun than 2 x CSA nationals, so you'd be waiting another 2 years to have the same fun anyway.

Got my group certificate yesterday come on tax man!

Tony what happens if don't declare interest earnings?

They will audit you and fine you, speaking from experience :)

F**k Pancake Parlour...Tony paid $28 for a chicken breast without a pancake lol. And I paid $20 for potatoes covered in cheese :/

Kebabs next committee meeting?

Who paid....?

Shits me cause they function like they did when new, it's just the friggen noise that bothers me. Sounds like I'm rocking EA Falcon suspension...no offence Dezzeye.

Haha yeah I know the feeling, although my SS never made noise the stock struts can get really bad on the evo's

    • 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
