It makes no sense

No sense, NONSENSE I tells ya...

But srs why not come over to this whore town, talk crap (for free mind you) get more people interested and be easier to access... Some people

I see your Wife getting around in the beatle nearly every morning on my way to work now, She had your skyline the other day.

You could always come visit me if you miss me that much.

So...My supposedly top notch custom heavy duty clutch that is just over a year old (sub 5000k's) is already nearly worn out... took it for a drive today and noticed that my clutch engages half way up the pedal.

I will be adding that to the list of stuff to replace in July.

Yup on her way to work in Clonarf. She had my car for a few days, as hers was getting a new carby and tuning.

I have been meaning to come and say g'day

Thats lame, What brand is it? and i assume you have checked clutch fluid lvls? not that its leaking everywhere.

Drop me a message or a call and come up for a beer man check out the new digs.

It was custom built by RPM, I don't think it is a fluid issue.

its not...... Its pretty much purchase by the Drum. Sucrogen E85 is what it will be running on. Long story short, getting a Haltech sensor installed in fuel line which can sense the blend of fuel so i can run either E85 or 98 pump. Even a mix of both, then the ecu will adjust the tune accordingly

That's pretty cool and probably more manageable as well. How much of a power difference is there between the E85 & 98 for you?

if i get a 15% power increase ill be happy.

Yeah in July mine is going to a new shop to break the 400 mark, I'd say it will be back in for a new brand name clutch and a metal head gasket not long after if not during

Get video footage of the Kaboom?

    • If there's enough meat in the housing where you want to put the M12 adapter, then do it, but be aware that if/when you f**k that up you'll probably be repairing it before doing anything else. I'd just drill it out and tap ina 1/4" thread. No need for rocket surgery when the next most obvious thing will do. You could throw a 1/4 x 1/8 bush in there and use the same fitting you intended to use.
    • Is the only issue that the oil catch can is getting filled on hard runs? I'd be thinking more about oil control issues rather then the head lifting, especially as you aren't seeing spiking in the coolant pressure.  Do you need restrictors in the head, or better drains from the head? Does the sump need venting to the catch can?
    • Tried to make 1/8npt threads into compressor house of the turbo for my EBC. Threads got fu#ked and ended up with and elongated hole, so I do have good amount and nice threads 90% of the hole but 10% I only had 1-2threads there and rest of it is flush on that side of the hole.. So my idea is to do M12 x 1.25 to AN4 with braided lines instead of 1/8npt to 4mm vacuum silicone hose.  and hopefully get a better thread. M12 is quite big and AN4 is a little bit bigger than 4mm (4.9mm inner diameter braided PTFE hose). but this should work. Thoughts? Otherwise I will weld and adapter onto the turbo.   
    • Looks great, I hope everything is working well after all that time!
