Most cars on gumtree are utter dirtboxes, if the owner can't even shell out $50 for an advert then what else haven't they shelled out for

i work in a car yard the minute i hear a customer go on about what they have found or what there advertising on gumtree i pretty much show them the door.

If they can fork out $50 to place a good add to sell their car then what are the chances they have enough money to buy a near new car.

And also 9 times out of 10 there looking to swap their cars

100% disagree.

Yes there are shitters of course but there are also nice things.

We are now down to 23 cars boys..........

Yesterday, my mate paid a deposit on a 1 owner low mileage (verified) White 1994 model that was for sale at Carizma International in Melbourne.

It's coming up to Sydney on Monday week........... (May 25).

As a devout Holden man it took me about 3 years to turn him but eventually he gave in!

I don't mind that my car wouldn't be in the feature. I'd be thinking of bringing my own photographer for a personal shoot at Bathurst anyway if it were held there??? Mind boggles.

Adding 2cents worth.

Agreed there is less being advertised, agree prices appear to be going up

An issue I have is the Price vs Quality.

Mostly really well overpriced poor examples up for sale at the moment.

I'm particularly Talking about the ones on Carsales ATM.

    • 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
