cool, i heard that u can only run about 10psi with stock intercooler, but im not certain about it. sounds about right though.

Even though I had a R32, I ran just over 1bar on a day-to-day base, Stock turbo and cooler. I’ve noticed a lot of skyline owners are a little “soft” when it comes to how much boost they run… Hell I ran open boost for a while, coil packs were rat shit so just dies coming up on boost.

Nice work modr33s2. How did you find Hardcore?

Nismoboy - I found Hardcore to be a good bunch, they tell me they have the 3 top HP RB motors in Australia and from the very good tune Pete did on my motor I believe he is capable of that.

666DAN - PM me for details but here are some pics of the 3 different sizes I have, they're all stainless steel.

Well i drive it everyday but I dont really use boost all that much, its just there if I need it, and if it were a track car I'm sure it wouldn't last all that long, but have been assured by Pete at Hardcore and Daniel form here that the turbo can handle it as long as i dont thrash it too much all the time like at the track.

Just touched my palm below thumb (damn no workshop vice or workshop for that matter) just adds to the 100 or so scars allready there (oh thats the other hand)

As for mesh give me some dimensions

The mesh is measured with a drill so a 2mm drill fits through the fine a 4mm through that roll and 11mm through the stuff I used.

I TIG welded all the cuts so it doesnt unravel but with the 4mm stuff I had on B4 i didnt do that and held together fine

    • 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!
