Next to the passenger side strut tower.

it will be heavily concealed by pipes and heat shields.

its not that silly a question, when i was a teenager and only first getting my hands dirty it was like an epiphany moment when i found the turbo on a friends car. admittedly they thought that was really lame but i was still in awe of my own achievement :P

I did the same on seeing my first turbo car nearly 15 years ago. Anything that had turbo written down the side in HUGE letters was the shit.

definately not NA, but yes thats exactly what i see when looking down the passenger strut tower. thanks for the help!

i'll get under tomorrow and check it out... im just curious lol :yes:

A noob question like that is normally gunna stir up some cheeky comments, but at least your trying to learn... The GTT is an awesome car... Try read as much as you can on SAU and be careful what threads you start as the guys may come across the wrong way if you ask a silly question :) if you have any 34 questions just PM me and ask... May save you the flaming! ;)

Can't know everything all at the start, if you don't know, search then ask.

Sorry didnt know he was going to be SITTING ON TOP OF THE ENGINE!

just tryin to help man

here's a quote for you

The right hand side of a vehicle, by convention, is the side to the right of the driver while seated facing the normal direction of travel. Consequently, a person observing a front-of-vehicle engine compartment while standing in front of the vehicle would have the right hand side of the vehicle to his left.

there has to be a general rule to save world wide confusion :cheers:

A workshop i worked for made us use "Near Side" rather than "passenger side", i thought it was stupid! But everyone has their lingo i guess!

yeah a bit silly i reckon..... But anyway, i am pretty sure this thread has achieved what it needed too, itll go the wasteland if we keep changing topics i guess :P

yeh i did a search but couldn't seem to find my answer. I don't doubt this has probably been mentioned or even asked before, but I just couldn't seem to find it.

Anyways, I did end up finding it thanks to everyone that helped :)

baby steps for me lol. I'll be sure to shoot you up with questions that I have Mat, thanks again.

Its one of those things you may not find in a search as its not asked that often, if you buy a turbo car you generally have some basic knowledge, but hey as you say "baby steps"....... But try avoid too many threads with simple things as the guys will generally start with the LULZ :P

    • Coming home late at night and driving past the police is the only reason i need one haha And yeh, definitley needs a switch to quickly enable it, dont have time to be getting my phone, opening an app, waiting for it to update etc before being able to make the change
    • Because it is financially convenient for them lol. Why wouldn't they want to give you the lowest possible valuation for your car?
    • Yep. @Duncan also shannons they will rip you dry and will be probably limited on how much you can drive. Also keep in mind that you always have to have it garaged with Shannons, with enthusiasts as per their PDS you can have it 2 times per week on the driveway for example. 
    • I had a generic 4" Varex rear box on my old V8, worked a treat for sneaking home late at night, it was as quite as stock when closed The car was "fairly" loud when open as it consisted of 1" 7/8 headers to 3" catted Y pipe, to 4" single, it did have a resonator in the mid pipe and only the Varex out the back I also hard wired in a Varex dash mount switch, as the key fob thing is a pain to use when driving I wouldn't recommend giving the beans when it is closed though as it creates a large restriction in the exhaust  It also can in very handy when pulled over for "random" breath tests or just cruising past the constabulary   
    • Here is the before and after of the scraping/sanding of the IC pads on the tachometer board for the fix mentioned in this thread. And yes it worked fine after. Just a note if you change any components on the board the tach calibration can be wrong showing the wrong idle etc...only problem is once it is installed back in the cluster you can't get to it to adjust...ouch! My fix was to cut out the calibration pot (the blue one) from the board and run it with two wires to the fuse panel under the dash where I could adjust the idle calibration once everything was installed. And yes I soldered everything up again including the half soldered components either side of the IC in my photos
