    • Did some testing over the weekend. After idling the car up to temperature in the car park with the bonnet open the intake on turbo side was hot while the other side was barely warm. Say 70c vs 30c between sides.   Given the hood was open and hadn’t been making boost the turbo wasn’t very hot leads me to suspect the coolant top tank since that would be at 90c according to the coolant temp sensor.   The tank is a killer b one so all alloy and the mount is a 6mm heavy plate bolted to the manifold so it transfers heat well compared to old thin steel or newer plastic ones. https://www.killerbmotorsport.net/shop/utcrv2an-b-upper-turbo-coolant-reservoir-v2-with-an-fittings-631     added some thermal washers above and below mounting plate and Heatsink to the top threads of the bolt. Total cost around $10   https://www.bunnings.co.nz/zenith-fibre-washer-suits-5-16-m8-30pk_p2310760   will it make any difference driving, likely not as only time that intake air will be slow moving is in heavy traffic.
    • Fitted new steering column shroud that fits the paddles.   replaced the hatch release buttons as the main one has turned into goo.  Not hard except one nut jammed up under the wiper motor took a little finesse. Remove tail light 3 nuts per side. This reveals 1 plastic screw clip per side, but leave those until last. Do the 4 nuts on inside, then free up the wiring. Then go back and do those plastic screws. The wiring has a mounting clip that you could clip off the old one before the plastic screws.    swapped the pump wiring on the dual pump setup chasing a fuel pressure issue. FYI the Dremel spanner fits the radium nuts under the wiring. then the rechargeable light ran out so gave up for the day.
    • Thanks for the reply mate. Yeah have read both those posts and just about every one I can find online. Have found a decent amount of conflicting information. Such as this vid on YouTube where he welds up the main body of the diff body and not the spider gears at all.    Derby is Waikaraka Park this Saturday! Should be a bit of fun for sure 
    • I have no physical experience either sorry but yeah sounds like you've read this one? that's usually my goto : guide when people ask the question   any newer threads usually lead back to there eg from here sounds like fun where is this derby? 😎
