Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

guys i used to work with on oil rigs would work 12 on 1 off ones fully retired at 24 after 7 years on the rigs.

Gallardo in the shed for his troubles

I have a mate the same, He retired this year at 32 after 10 years of work as a mining engineer in a gold mine, at first he was in Kalgoolie then he was in Mauritania, worked 3 weeks got 2 weeks off where they would fly him to wherever he wanted and was on 500k a year for his troubles. He has been more or less everywhere in the world and owns 6 houses outright in Perth and Kalgoolie. He is pretty much just living off rental income for as long as he likes.

mine, silver 33 gtr , white wheels and missing rear wing end caps

I do think i recall seeing it out there. Hard to remember a lot of them. So So many cars. But luckily a lot of ppl's cars arent setup for continuous track use and half the cars where parked in the pits cooling down so the track was never too busy lol

what do you mean you need to upgrade your stock radiator when puting out 3x the factory power? and now you tell me i need to add an oil cooler and possibly a trans cooler too???

madness.

  • Like 1

i was speaking to a former truck driver, has his own house and mostly paid off by his early 20's

he was saying you need to seriously think about how/if you can handle killing someone when you hit them, because its not a case of IF its a case of WHEN. he got out of it not too long after he nearly killed a guy that drove through a stop sign without stopping to check traffic.

    • 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
