Can get AXT turbo to drill and tap for you in Dandenong for $160 includes a larger hose drill and tap. Other mechanics quoted me $600, $700 and $800...lol Good luck hope this can help fellow s1 n/a vl owners. special thanks to WOGPSI for all his help and Wkd VL. cheers

RANT START... Those addresses know who they are. LOL so many dodgy questions. What can I skimp on bla bla bla. Read a Book people find out what detonation/ Pre-ignition and pinking is. Get off your lazy assez and do some home work. If you can't even read the thread you posting in then keep your 'been asked a thousand times' questions to your selfs. Also there are a lot of good guys and girls on this forum that do there best to answer your questions and address any issues u may have Have some RESPECT and read what they post b4 you asking any questions Pisz me off. Nothing's easy in this life, if u want it work for it then maybe some one will ask you for advice Rant end...

^^^^totally agree. This is my first post ever on this site but been reading every thread I can find on na to turbo conversions and it's so frustrating when so many people are too lazy to do some reading and just think people have nothing better to do than type the same answers over and over. So many people on this forum have such a wealth of knowledge and if all these dumb rrses keep posting rubbish the people with the knowledge won't bother helping out. Thats my reply rant... Anyway, Ive just bought a complete turbo motor, everything from fmic to flywheel including ecu, harness and injectors, only need a fuel pump and high pressure fuel line and my pootrol should go a little better. Anyone interested in my conversion I'll prob start a thread on the build.

Yeah man go for it, good to see a patrol n a bit of diversity around here. R you Gunna put turbo badges and dose pipe on it lol or go sleeper patrol. then post it in the bt1 thread hehe but seriously go the turbo badg

certainly not a dose pipe, well not until I'm at 250-280RWKw then I'll be able to justify making a fully sik turbo noise. My Patrol is no sleeper, it's got 7" spring lift, 2" body lift, 36" Simex ET2's and about 1kW of spot lights. I don't think I'll go with the badges, more likely a full body wrap with crazy shizzle all over it. Just cause I can!!!!

Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Just wondering is it legal to change from an RB30 A6 motor and drop in an A8 RB30et? Have upgraded the brakes and suspension to suit already. Any info would be a big help. Thanks guys

No problem
