Righto:just quickly(as I'm rushing out the door to get to AutoSalon),here's the deal:"Nissan Skyline GT-R" DVD from Duke Video,usually about $39 to $49(at most places...)-$21 to SAU'ers in A.C.T.-you'll have to pick 'em up from me;maybe trivia night or Friday night cruise? Here's the blurb from Duke themselves:

"The original 'beast from the east', the Nissan Skyline GT-R is an icon for power, speed and advanced Japanese automotive technology. With straight-6 engines capable of being tuned to over 1000bhp, 4WD, intelligent torque-splitting differentials, rear wheel steering and enough electronics to keep a space station going, the R-32, R-33 and most recent R-34 models are mechanical 'tours de force'.

But what do they go like and what speeds are they really capable of? Our new DVD traces the GT-R's technical development and tuning options, and then puts you in the hot seat for several memorable rides. How about a lap of the old Nurburgring with 'ringmeister' Dirk Schoysman at up to 190 mph with drifting at 160 mph? Or a ride on a GP track in the ultimate racing Skyline - the Falken Tyres R34? If that's not scared you, an Autobahn blast in a 600 bhp Prospec-NISMO R34 should do the trick!

If you thought only ground-hugging 2-seater sportscars with names like Ferrari, Lamborghini or Porsche could be called 'supercars', think again!"

I own it(naturally...);anyone who want to commit to one,I need numbers NO LATER than Monday 4pm!! Takes about 1 week to get 'em here! Any qustions,call me on 0414 484 171. I'm off to A/S!

LoL...Canberra is expensive. I picked up (an original copy mind you) for 10 bux from a local market! :P

I'll assume you can get a genuine,or at least a pretty good burnt copy,from eBay or the like for less;if so-go for it. Or even your local markets-where I'm sure they sell genuine Rolexes for $50,too. That's your perogative. Besides,as first posted,this is offered to the A.C.T. SAU'ers;so maybe you need to organise an even more wonderful "group buy" elsewhere?!? Righto then;rant over...

For those who want the real deal,read on. These are new,genuine Duke DVD's,straight from the supplier to me. Warranty and all,they'll take about 3-5 working days to get to me from when I place the order. I'm about to have 6 days away from Canberra(no,Gus;you can't have the keys to the GTR or the Forester...),and I was going to place an order on Tuesday morning so they're here when I get back. Seeing as it's only Leech and SupaFly Skyline that've put their hands up,I can do two things:order two copies come tomorrow arvo,or if it's OK with Leech and SupaFly Skyline,leave this posted offer running until I get back,THEN place the order. What say you,gents? I don't mind either way. Oh,yeah:Auto Salon Sydney was pretty cool today...

Money on arrival is fine,gang. As stated earlier,I'll now put the order in next Tuesday(24th);probably see the DVD's on either Friday 27th or Monday 30th,I'd imagine(maybe sooner). If they're here on the Friday,I'll bring 'em out to our usual Friday night gathering,if not,Trivia night will be the go...OK?

    • 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
