I'm will most likely not be making it to this guys, had someone run up the back of the skyline today and insurance isn't even looking at the car until the 16th so I doubt I'll have it by the 27th

Bring the hire car out. Useful bit of information in the post below.

For those unfortunate enough to find themselves in a similar situation and without their car whilst its been repaired, I was not aware but its a legal obligation for the party at faults insurer to pay for a hire car whilst yours is being repaired. Acorn Rentals is a company that handles this for you. A simple online form (providing you have full details of the party at fault) and they do the rest. Don't get tricked in to renting one yourself (if a hire car is not included in your policy) and then sending the claim to their insurer and hope (pray) they reimburse you!

I am out now guys, just found out the misses has planned a dirty weekend away ;)

well that's too bad for you :P

    • 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
