Thanks to call from Beau and posted in Spotted I saw my previous Sinsita crashed just up from my place.

This morning around 11am (name removed) came undone on the Condor hieghts circle under full boost. He is understandabley devasted but unharmed. He loved the car as much as I did :D

It looks like it will be a write off and I will post parts and prices in time. It's a great car and has some really trick stuff. Such as a New Garret 2530, Microtech LTX 12 and dash display, CF Bonnet, Veilside front bar, UAS intercooler and custom piping, Genuine Recaro race seats, HKS SS BOV etc...

Damage is front right gaurd, drivers door, roof. The metal bus stop/seat is flattend but luckily no-one was sitting in the shelter.

So that's where the bus stop went! I was wondering why it was gone when i drove past it last.

That's no good at all. No offence, but i drive up that way every day, i don't see how an accident like that can happen if the driver was being sensible. But hey, i'm no angel myself. At least the guy is ok, seems like it could have been a lot worse.

    • 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)
