man, youd wanna have a good car to be out there, i find it bad enough driving my company car up

the freeway on a hot day :)

Not wrong Craig.

The locals were telling us that they don't bother recording temperatures that exceed 50 deg but temps in the mid 50's are quite common.....whew, I'm thirsty just thinking about it again!

All Skylines would die up there unfortunately.....and some 4WD's too, lol.

Nothing grows with that heat, not even weeds.

u might be able to change the springs inside the wastegate so u can run more boost, when i bought my turbosmart gate it came with 4 springs

running your gt3076 with the .7 compressor housing on your low mount manifold might have clearance problems with your engine mount

when i mounted my gt35 on my 6boost low mount manifold i had to have the engine mount machined down a bit to make it clear

Those manifolds were sold with in the HKS GT3037 kits which is the HKS version of a the GT3076 so he shouldn't have any trouble. you can see on the front 3 runners they curve up before the collector which allows for large compressor housing to clear.

EDIT!!

LOL that's not what you were saying though, the kits were bolt on items though so there shouldn't have to be any mount modification needed, from what i understand they actually move the turbo forward slightly from the factory position.

Your apology is accepted and I appreciate that it was done publicly rather than by PM.

IMHO, it takes a real man to come out in public and apologize, so thanks.......water under the bridge now. :P

I'm sorry you're bold Pete :P Apology accepted? :teehee:

I know that of lot of people on here have arguments with their wives and girlfriends over the amount of time and $ spent on 'that bloody car'.

Valentines Day is approaching so I thought that I'd put forward this T-shirt as a gift suggestion:

      Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...

      Yes, a plan for non-action is always my first sort of plan! I'm happy to see what falls out of invision's update. I had been having some thoughts on what to do with this the other day and they all seem to have fled my memory, after various solar panel induced traumas, squeaking suspension sphericals, etc etc, over the last little bit. I'll try and recall what I had in mind and make sure that I put it into print in some form before the Alzheimer's strikes again.

      The ability to have both a 5500 stall for launching, and a regular lockup for every other scenario is pretty sweet. Does it actually work well like that though in the real world? Would it hold up to track use and otherwise you'd never know you had a stall converter in it? If so, that's awesome

      The thing is, once the content has been tagged we can chop and change the end result as much as we want. Its identifying the content in the first place that needs to be done regardless of the final outcome.

      Sorry @GTSBoy I thought I'd replied here. There's a new BIG version of invision coming out soon, it might be worth waiting until that happens as it contains a lot of improved functionality for tags. My suggestion would be to add a top level page (not thread) with some info on it and then link to sub pages for various topics. We could even just start really simple with 2 or 3 pages underneath it. Those pages could just have a view (like a pre configured search result) of the tags we choose to put on it. We could have some background or an intro on each of these pages. My only issue is that while admins and mods can update the existing content to contain the tags we want, new posts can have whatever tags the author wants. That said, the reason our tags are so messy is because of that, so maybe we restrict tagging to admins/mods in edits.
