Ouch !!!!.....

Skyline GTRs are capable of winning targa Tasmania, but the Porsche teams have top drivers, financial backing and a wicked automotive package.

I hope to see a GTR or any Japanese Performance car win the Targa Tasmania some day

That's good.

I spoke to Jason and John at Targa 2001 and they are hell nice guys.

I think they are definitely one of the better crews who can take the fight up to the Porsches and would be very sorry if they missed Targa 2003

Cheers

Not written off!!!!

front end damage, pushed wheel back and up into inner guard. Was running again a couple of weeks after from all reports. They also had a near miss on the run into Savage, only just got the car back on the road. Savage quite a long stage and the car "ran out of tyres"

Cant be that bad if they are going to run in Targa can it?????

Datsun versus Volkswagon should be a good show

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
