I went to Active for a year back in 2009/10, then went to Club Lime in tuggers coz I got it CHEAP through work....now I go to Anytime in tuggers. Pretty useful so far since I usually go outside normal gym open hours, plus it's not horribly expensive. Has 2 racks with olympic bars plus plenty of freeweights, can't complain about anything other than the typical dickfaces that go there and waste everyone's time and space.

EASY THERE BUDDY, I'm not your enemy. I got no beef with you. I don't want to fight.

I'll replace your washers for $100 lol

Why did you get new washers?

Fat flamin mongrel. lol what gym do you go to?

I'll make sure to be home. Karl has a short temper, easily set off. Tends to start swinging at anything and everything, punching small children etc. Dangerous guy. Definitely require backup.

fix't

Why's that? Mine had stickers and tape on the box that had writing on them advising the package was opened for inspection.

Yeah I was curious as to it was inspected too, oh well...haha Definitely caused by impact and not Stao. Fault of my wastegate wad entirely out of mine and Stao's control.

It doesn't, I would just get the FNT mods done before paying for a retune. 2 birds 1 stone sorta thing. Although not entirely sure on FNT, only because any modifications to the housing that increase response is sure to add heat in some way...

pfft Oh well at least now I'm not so horribly against removing my turbo again. I think I'll have to do it once the car's registered again so I can have Stao modify the rear housing before I go flex fuel....

My g3 had the wastegate flapper stick, but only due to postal staff packing it back into the box badly after deciding to check the contents. This caused it to be damaged in transit

So you didn't get the rubber hose made up? You should have anyway man

If you tickle me in the right spot, I'll share my bed with you free of charge.

I think I still have some 5 stud ones in the boot of the car, if they're what you want then you can have them

Lol I assume you're on a phone, coz you called him milk

ABS in Fyshwick would definitely have what you need tools-wise

I was curious about the heat part, so I'm not sure what kinda hose you'd have to use.... The pressure however appears to be absolutely shit all (15psi) in the grand scheme of things. My vacuum lines to the actuator hold slightly higher pressure than that without clamps.

So if you flared the ends of the hard line a tiny bit, and used a proper hose clamp....effectively nothing.

Awesome! The block-side water line fitting is pretty much the only reason why I absolutely never want to remove my turbo again....Now I'm going to do it the moment it's back on the road!

Actually Mik you just provoked an interesting thought - the water system isn't under very much pressure, is it? What could possibly be a drawback to doing exactly as you said - replacing a section of the hard piping with appropriate rubber piping, which would allow some flex and easy fitting of the banjo bolt onto the turbo? Surly if you routed it correctly and insulated appropriately, the heat from being near the manifold etc would be negligible. Especially if you positioned this rubber piping further towards the back of the block, away from everything.

I've honestly got no idea how difficult it would be to swap

lol dude I knew this would happen...I'm sure Pat feels for you big time, I know that even when I was simply refitting the turbo the second time it took me hours to get the water line back on (banjo bolt would NOT line up). I'd suggest perhaps removing the turbo from the manifold, then attempting to get the banjo bolt onto the thread in that position, then bolting turbo back to manifold. Will give you a bit more space to work with. Otherwise you'll have to remove the water lines completely and get braided lines to suit.

Don't stress lol, if it was ceramic just plea . I went over the pits with a gutted cat and they didn't pull me up

My cat is empty and I've never seen any flames....I am disappoint
