fitted a new diff to my car yesterday. What a improvment! my old diff was paris hilton spec, ugly slogged out and worthless. Gotta be worth atleast 2 seconds round basky!

Pulled out all the interior out of the 34 last night, Gave it all a good clean up. Mounted the seats replaced all the little screws etc that were missing. Pulled out all the center console etc found some shit wiring for the head unit and gauges fixing that tonight :/ Giving it a service, new oils, pads etc will chuck some pics up when I get some :)

just fitted the new power fc, booked in with the great Andy Kuc at pro automotive for a tune..

then hopfully Bosnjak engineering will have my caliper adaptor's finished so i can fit my DBA 5000 324mm rotor's

Got my car in at GT GARAGE after it decided to drop all the oil into the cooling system due to what we believe is head gasket failure. Doing a rebuild with a few forged internals, new N1 oil pump, Nitto head gasket, machining the head etc etc. Plan to run a bit more boost when its all bolted back together and in the car and aim for 270-280kw atw provided the stock AFM's can handle it. Lots to look forward to :P

any reason why your going for an N1 pump. from the experiance ive had they are no good anymore. as in there not made like they used to be. Nitto pumps are the way to go on any half decent build.

i may not have owned any of the engines or buit them myself but i have first hand seen the engines built with N1 pumps and also fail with N1 pumps.

Going with the N1 pump cos thats what my Nick at GT GARAGE reckoned i should go with when he did up a parts list, going to add a crank collar to it to hopefully avoid the issue that are usually associated with the oil pumps. I'm not planning on running huge power or using the car in a way that will put the pump under too much stress so fingers crossed when its all in and bolted up and i get the car back on the road it should all be sweet. I'll definitely ask Nick about the Nitto pump though and see what he thinks, always open to helpful suggestions that will benefit the car so i appreciate the heads up :) Cheers.

have a search on the forum , there are pages on how the strength of the gears arent as high quality/strong as they used to be.

some say yes, others wont touch them.( old type are ok )

if i was spending the $$$ on forged internals id spend the extra over a N1 pump to get the NITTO

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • 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
