  5. Its been a couple years so I cant really remember the clearances etc. but I think the turbo might hit the bonnet with that adaptor it looks like that would make it pretty tall
  6. Hey man just a heads up Ive had two of those manifolds and haven't had any success. Turbo fouled on the strut tower when all bolted up. I had to make a 'U' shaped adapter that mounted the turbo in place of the aircon.

  12. Gee I feel popular for all the wrong reasons ha When I say "shortcut" you as a customer wouldnt know the difference in the final product but as a person building it I would know what, why and how it was done. No one should "shortcut" when it concerns someones safety or the structural integrity of a job but theres a million and one ways to do something, some are text book, some seem cowboy. Personally im a perfectionist in my work and im frequently told by my boss not to be so picky, i ignore him
  13. Lol ive never been so compelled to post on bimmersport before haha bbs - I dunno if your in the engineering industry yet but you will find a lot of what you learn at tech isn't necessary when your on the job due to time constraints, accessibility, cost etc. If a customer wants a product and they want it yesterday and under budget then sometimes corners are cut even if it goes against your work ethics

    Tyres rubbing

    Whats the width and offset of the wheels? Where is it rubbing?
  15. True bro how much 0.7mm stainless do you weld?
  16. haha i dunno why i feel like i have to defend myself but f**k it ill take the bait im not advocating the use or non use of a torque wrench to tighten wheel nuts but in my experience ive never used one except when i was doing trucks and never had any wheels come off and of the 20 odd mechanic mates i know its only happened to one of them and that was during their apprenticeship As for tire techs, would you trust their torque wrenchs? They have probably dropped them countless times and they wont be accurate anyhow
  17. There's a difference between text book and practice eg. I "should" use filler rod in my welds at work but 99% of my work it isnt necessary as its sanded off and polished
  18. Ive never damaged a wheel nut with a rattle gun and every gun ive used i wouldnt trust the torque settings on Lol who uses a torque wrench on wheel nuts?
  19. A rattle guns not going to wreck your wheel nuts pal unless theyre using the wrong size socket its common practice to use one and if a shop didnt use one I would question their expertise If theyre not torquing them up with a strong arm after the rattle gun then theres a problem........ If I get stuff done anywhere Ill only watch them if the workers look like rednecks or flat peak muppets
