I WOULD LIKE TO SAY A BIG THANKYOU TO JIM 72GT on sau THE OWNER OF A KGC10 DONE UP AS A REPLICA GTR FOR DRIVING IT FOR MY WEDDING ON 5/11/11.

I dream about the car every day and when i buy a bigger house which should be soon i will buy that car. when jim turned up at my place i saw the car and almost cryed it was clean neat and fitted in with the other wedding cars very nice. Jim drove very professional from my house in the wedding convoy to chatswood and even waited to after my church service was done to let us take photos and wow did it attract attention.

When i get the photos i will post them up for all to see then hang them on my wall.

Jim thankyou very much for all the effort you went to eventhough your own skyline was out of action you did all the running around to borrow your mates same car to make my day even better goodluck in moving house and in the future.

THANKYOU VERY MUCH

Hey Adam!

Honestly mate it was my pleasure. One thing I should point out straight up is ....that was not MY car :blush: The closer the date came, it became evident my KGC10 would not be ready, so thanks to a "NSW Corvettes Unlimited " member and VERY good friend of mine, lets call him "Ganders"... very generously made his freshly refurbished KGC10 available for the day.

And a great day it was! During the Wedding ceremony we went for a coffee up on Victoria ave nearby.....in that time the parked KGC10 appeared to be the cause of three near misses due to people doing double takes and sudden pull ups in an attempt to get photos!! :D It caused a bit of a stir with a few of the people walking by as well " What is it?..NO WAY!! Hey come back and look at this" etc

It was a pleasure to meet you, your brothers, mates, grooms men etc. I had fun, and ..um yeah, I now have ANOTHER plan for mine :cheers:

P.S. I wore a family heirloom thin black tie and got my hair cut Jase, the Skyline did the rest :cool:

Awww ok was spot by a member going west on M4.

On second thoughts maybe it is just the photo?

I said it wasn't Jim's car because the car looks white/cream in the pic??? Jim's car was recently on a truck and is currently sitting with another KGC10 and a handful of Prince Skyline's :ph34r: But Jim's is silver/grey. It does look the same - so i should have clarified the colour in the picture first.....Is it just a bad quality picture which makes it look white?

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • 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.
