Love it !!! :(

So did Terry actually get some good starts or do the bog-down & catch-up thing again ?

Poor Brocky, he must really be getting tired of seeing those Skyline tail lights after all these years :P

BTW, Top pic of Rod's car !!!

And one of the GTRs . this is for cars up and including 92 or before 92? And when were the 32s out 92 wasnt it.

32 GTRs were racing (and winning) in the ATCC in 1991.

32's were winning in late 1990!

Hooks

I thought in the first few races that the R32 and the R31 were in together on australian soil (the changeover period), the R32 got beat by the 31's?

Yeh Jim Richards actually win the 1990 SATCC in the R31 GTSR. Mid season Skaife started running the GTR at rounds getting it ready for Bathurst and the 91 season. I think the GTRs first round was Winton in 1990, adn the GTS-Rs last rounbd was Oran Park with Jim behind the wheel wrapping up the championship..

Can anyone remember what the R31 GTSR came at Bathurst in 1990? Or did Gibson just run the single GTR? I seem to recall in 89 the R31s came 2nd and 3rd at Bathurst behind the Shell Sierra.

    • 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)
