Aren't the pre-facelift 6mt’s different to all the others in some way too? Remember reading something ages ago about differences but really can't remember what it was.

Back to the circuit after the offroadin stint the other week. Had a bunch of issues with 5th gear, need to do the bushes and whatnot so I dont have so much play in each gear. Half a second slower than my PB last year. And the not so good bit of the day...

Hi Guys, Anyone in Christchurch with an engine crane/hoist they could lend me for a weekend? I can pick-up/drop-off to wherever. A box of beer for the lender! Cheers,

Yeah man can do. I also have a code for 15 percent off their customer service department gave me if you want it.

@Andy_Mac yes for the TVG it’s carbide and sanding. I was playing with stones and they clog up way to fast but make a nice job being bigger diameter. With carbide and a hacksaw a half day should be enough. Have mostly finished but waiting on heads before I make the final taper as I think the TVG needs about another 1.5mm bigger all around to match the heads. For the manifold the flapper wheels on a 200mm shaft should be able to get further inside than the carbide can to smooth it out nicer.

Yep stock fit flange for bov is already included, don’t remember there being a gasket but my bov bolted right on Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Are we talking the stock Subaru Flange? Because I took my intercooler pipe to a local fab dude, and it cost me $40 cash to get the flange for my Turbosmart BOV welded in place looking mint.

I've done two sets now with carbide burrs on the end of a 10v makita battery drill without cutting fluid. Hacksaw out the centre divider as close to the sides as possible then slowly work it down with the carbide burrs until it blends with the rest.

Sucks that it gets stung with tax now. Going custom on a good locally made core is an option still from fabrication shops and can get nice looking piping too. To answer your question about the HdI kit, it was pretty awesome. Very efficient and I did have pics somewhere in my garage thread about shining super bright light through it comparing against some other core to confirm it’s not just some S*** design (though my IAT logged before and after confirms this with real data) . My turbo was spinning out of efficiency range and basically blowing hot air so for the IAT to come down from ambient +20-30 range to ambient +3-10c range the hdi FmIC had proven it’s worth to me Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If you can wait a while I have a friend who has amassed a collection of intercoolers and is going to be testing them all on a dyno - all different price ranges etc

My stock bushes do have a lot of cracking, but doesn't necessarily mean that they are done from what I've read and heard. Anyway, I might change to whiteline bushings in a few months, thanks for the feedback

Just heads up that it can be pretty random with customs. Both of u may make same order arrive same time at customs and one of u get taxed other one doesn’t Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
