Most exhaust shops will use 409.

But I would be inclined like yourself to use 304. I use these guys for all my ss tubing and bends. Very good quality products and the finish is perfect!

Spewing your not in WA, otherwise I could supply the tube/bends for you no problem...No doubt at a much cheaper rate then the general public can get.

Not sure what the big time fabricators here are getting their Argon for but BOC wanted $160 for the fill on an E size bottle and $13.90/month rental, just Called Star Gas and they deliver for free and charge $55 for an E size bottle and $12.50/month rental. Any other QLD peeps out there with good prices on stainless tube?

You need to check how much gas is actually in the bottle I'm paying $170 for 10.5m3 boc was only 8.4m3 and I pay $18 rent per month but if I get someone else to sign up I get free rental for a year I'm with supagas and I get free pickup delivery

I got Supergas down to $125 for the 10.5m3, you need to speak with the sales manager, you can't haggle over the counter.

Another gas wholesaler just offered me large bottles for $80 but I am yet to determine if I will be better off. The Supergas bottles have much higher pressure in them from my experience...

Hey bud I'm in w.a I'm after sone stainless tubing if u could msg me on 0497075260 cheers

Anyone know where I can get some 3mm thick flat acrylic sheet from? Prefer local in Perth, but will do online if it's cheaper. Masters and Bunnings have similar stuff, but they are very expensive.

Need it for composite tooling, so can also use polypropylene or similar. Just something that is plastic, relatively thin (2-4mm), and shapes easily using a heat gun.

does anyone have links and contacts for aluminium in Victoria, mainly for straight pipe/tube however full industrial retailers that do sheet, plate etc would be useful too

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
