nah, I don't think so cos when I spoke to him, he had just made this "batch" up (his word - like he just took some cookies out of the oven) from the laser cut flanges he had just received.

anyway, he said that he made up a bunch (maybe 10) and he must have sent you one of those, and then when I spoke to him yesterday - he only had about 2 left - so I got one of the last ones. :D

Have you measured the diameter of the pipes at the turbo flange side? wanted to know how big the wastegate pipe is.

the guy u r talking to i am assuming is Rama! he talks abit of shit!

Mine was the original order with 1 other that he had to do before he got the whole bunch of other orders. thats y he sent me mine quickest, 4 weeks is still 2 bloody long.

i will measure the wastegate hole when i get home, they could have made that pipe a bit bigger!

thanks man, yeah thats what i thought from the pics - but he said it was 1 1/4 or 1 1/2 inch and that what the ones at jms are, so I guess it's ok

when u planning on putting your in?

mines going in on friday, with new plugs and s-afc tune!

mines going in on saturday along with a front pipe being made up and having my cat flanges flared out to 3" at a place in south yarra!

(SAFC to come later for me)

I just spoke to rama and he said that wastegate pipe is around 35 mm (between 1 1/4 and 1 1/2 inch). he made a good point by saying that the hole for the wastegate is samller then this so this size is more then enough - anyway if the wastegate pipe didn't flow enough, all it would mean is a tiny bit more boost under high revs :D

yep, was gonna do it on sat at ice but thats the only time I can get the dump etc fitted so will have to wait till next saturday!

what would you estimate I'll be on after the dump front etc? (have bleed set at 10psi, airinx pod, cold air partition and super drager)

what will I then get to with a tuned safc later??

its hard to say with different cars and different dynos!

come down to calder this sunday and see what u can run in the 1/4 mile, thats the best indication of power!

might be going cos a friend is taking his vl turbo - but I don't know if I'm gonna take my car down??

what are the people there like, never been!!

its good i went last friday but didnt run! i just wanna go to race my friends vr 5.0, thers sum real quick ie 9sec cars but it's just fun 2 see what your car can do!

update!

gerald just called me, the new dump pipe aint matching the location of my 3 inch front pipe, so its going to exhaust shop now to get the front pipe cut and rotated so it fits properly!

This means no dyno tune today, and since grand final is tmorow the dyno shop is closed, so i gotta wait till monday to get the s-afc tuned!!! FARKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK:mad:

he had to drive it to exhaust shop with no exhaust, straight off the dump pipe, that would have sounded sweet!!:)

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
