Trailers, mmm I think we will build one, see exact costing and go from there. I only want a very very basic one. No tyre rack etc. Will be around end of the year I reckon before we look at building on

New front bar and lights going on after some numbskull backed into the GTR in Woolies carpark on Sunday arvo.

Not like he hit it real hard, just pushed the whole car nearly a meter backwards, while it was parked, unattended, with the park brake on and stuff...

Ouch :)

Doesnt really look like much at all actually.

Till ya get the bar cover off and see all the little bits that add up.

The rio is creased and bent on both sides, lh headlight has been pushed sideways into the indicator breaking the mounting lug, the rio mounts are bent and will need to be straightened...

Its been in the bodyworks today so they can do a quote and send off to my insurance company (Thumbs up to Shannons and Cooee Bodyworks)

I think the guy who did it will be a bit surprised when he gets the bill from them as he doesnt have insurance and I dont think he knows exactly what it was he backed into.

Just before you get all suicidal check all your breather plumbing and PCV valve to make sure your not building up to much crankcase pressure. A turbo seal is like a piston ring, so not a lot should go wrong in such a short time, but even a new seal will leak if there is to much backpressure in the bearing cavity so that the oil can't drain out. :D

Just a thought.

Garrett 3071, Hks version is 28-35 and about $2k more, http://www.horsepowerinabox.com/HPIAB2/category12_1.htm

The 3071r on here are bolt-on and some guys on SAU are making around 275rwkw. As for injectors there’s not a lot out there for neo's but Ben at SPG will be able to get them for you.

Got our wagon back last Friday and took it for a drive Saturday to blow the cob webs out after 2 months, believe me they are all gone!!! 'Vi-pec plug & play' works a treat with auto. My vote for Pete Lockett at Fuel Tech Automotive, Launceston.

Getting everything together to finish my car off ready to be tuned as i dont want it to be off the road for 4 years :)

Car currently sits with the following set up:

RB20DET

TD-06 20g L2

HKS 264 cams

Tomei 555 injectors

GK Tech cam gears

HYBRID GT FMIC with GReddy hotpipe

Just Jap oil cooler and relocation kit

APEXI power intake

Thanks to BMS i have coils, Z32 and coil cooler on the way, a decat pipe thanks to the guys from SPG and a new extinguisher supplied by Hamish @ REVOLUTION.

Once fitted (next week hopefully) the car will be ready for rego/tuning so i can start driving it again.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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
