Recommended Posts

Silly question, but can someone confirm that Mr Jim Richards drove the Winfield R32 at Bathurst??? Was that the "pack of bastards" race???

Yep, that's the one.

Winfield GTR was '92 as was the pack of arse holes line. It was sponsored by GIO Insurance in '91 when it won out right as opposed to on countback in '92

In 90 and 91 it was a factory sponsored car with Nissan as the primary sponsor and Shell and Yokohama as sedcondary sponsors. The GIO car was a Bob Forbes owned privateer GT-R. The car was built by Gibson Motorsport as a customer car.

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
