guys keep on topic or the thread will be shut
I still think you are getting things back to front - there is NO need to close a thread that started as a 'for sale' in the general stagea area (instead of in the 'for sale' section where it belongs) if it wanders off the 'for sale' topic.

ie Sure, move it or close it for being a 'for sale' in the wrong place if you really think you have to, but if it it turns in to a general chat so be it! It is after all in the general stagea chat area!!!

its weird i cant wish someone good luck with the sale and ask about the transmission even though this is related to the sale of the vehicle?? ok now that doesnt make sense especially

considering that the seller indicated that if we have any questions we should feel free to ask hmm

Quite possibly mine. You don't feel the need to return to stock exhaust do you? :wave: I'd happily take that 3" off your hands.

On another note, how much would it cost to do a manual conversion the same as yours? And is this a service you would offer?

Good luck with the sale. If you feel the need to return the exhaust to stock, I'll happily take the 3" off your hands :rofl:

BTW: How much would a manual conversion cost, and is this something you would do for another Stag owner? Or do you only do it on your own cars?

I could do it, but cost would be a killer. Don't know exact cost but console, shifter surround and associated parts (console lid, rear ash tray, rear cupholder, main cupholder etc) are VERY expensive out of Japan. Secondhand almost impossible. Plus shifter surround has to be repainted to suit your car. 260RS have their own one off colour. If the interior isn't black then the console body will have to be colour changed as they are black only. Also 260RS have two types of consoles early and late. The G sensor must be relocated also in some cases, a new mounting bracket must be made so that the sensor is level in relation to vehicle and its new position. Many hours involed here and the g-sensor must be pulled apart to attach to the new bracket!! tricky little sensor if you f#@k it you up for a grand!!Anyway i would have to price it all up if your real serious.

Dammit Alan,

was really interested in your car when I saw it at SnS and spoke to you late that day, but then noticed it didn't have either the sunrooves or leather. If it had at least the sunrooves, I would have been so much closer to making a decision and coming up to see the car properly.

Doing some research on insurance at the moment, so once I've sorted that and a few other things I might still give you a call. If it's been sold by then, then so be it.

Good luck with the sale, regardless.

Nick.

      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
