hey guys.

ive been slowly piecing together my RB cefiro with a garrett GT3040, and pretty much only have the fiddly fits to sort out.

except for the oil and water lines......

has anyone used or are using the GT conversion kits you can buy from gcg ?

any info or feedback is appreciated.

im using one.

comes with everything you need. 2 banjo fittings, and some hose for the water lines (you've got to cut, expand then clamp the hose + banjo fittings on), and a completely new oil feed hose + fitting for the block.

one thing i think it needs is some kind of heat resistant cover for the water lines as mine are starting to change colour from the heat.

its pretty easy. just get a copper pipe cutter from supercheap (the same thing plumbers use) for around $5-$10 so you get a nice clean cut on the water lines and you'll be sweet. you'll also need to expand the ends so you get more clamping force onto the pipe.

other than that its all pretty much straight forward.

      yeah I've never understood that either.... And to answer an earlier question, I write the date on open bottles and throw them if more than 12 months old (which they almost always are, because I don't need to bleed them unless I'm changing lines/calipers etc in between)

      Nah, the one that hit the boot was a big steel locker, around 6 foot height, 4 foot wide and 2 foot deep, empty it weighs about 15kg and had about that amount of stuff in it The photo didn't give a good representation of the actual damage, the large ding on the passenger side was about a inch deep, the one on the driver was about 1/2 inch deep, right on the curve, where the inner boot frame doesn't let you get behind it with a dolly Basically the same issue with getting behind the damage on the centre of the boot We could have filled it all with bog, but my OCD would be triggered every time I looked at it, knowing what hides beneath  As for the locker, I did get the shits with it and put it in the scap metal bin, but, I pulled it out and it is now sitting in the garage at home full of car servicing stuff, cleaning gear and random tools, it's going to pay for it's indiscretions

      Whilst I typically don't cheap out on things, if I can save some money, like $1000, on a clean straight panel, that gives me $1000 to spend on other stuff, basically free money really 🤔 🤣

      Is the toolbox that damaged the boot seal the same item that fell on the car during the storm a while back?

      Who are you to deny yourself? I’ve said this many times to myself and apart from getting what I really want, I go quiet for a while whilst working out what I just did to my savings and how will I afford what it cost, then, next payday…
