You should get them a couple of days after Oxford transfers the money and it clears.

the buy is sposed to be ending tomorrow guys please advise if still interested!!so i can finalise the buy.

at this stage we have only 10 people that have paid up and a few that have pulled out, but there are a few remaining that have not let me know if they wanna go ahead.

so 10 ppl does that mean have to transfer $45 instead of the $41?... (since most ppl have transferd $41)

count me in for '90 RB26

will send payment once i get which price to pay lol

I paid last week, you really need to let people know if they're payment has been recieved mate. especially since the end date has come and gone...

I'd just like to know if the money has reached you or not...

hiya all

just to let ya know that the group buy will be finalised on monday and all the deposits from people will be paid to the distributor on tues or wed.

so hopefully they will be sent out to you guys by the weekend.

but if you would still like one i will be buying a few extras to have if ppl are still keen, only difference will be they will cost $41 plus postage(instead of $41 including postage)

cheers oxford.

...now that i do have the valve and can finally get around to changing the engine oil, what should i replace the oil with? (weight, brand etc)

hiya andy

i use MOTUL oils in both my bikes and my cars, they are good quality without being horrendesly expensive, 5ltrs of turbolight 4100 which is a 10/40 weight oil should set you back around $45-50 depending on where ya get it. when you do the oil change don't forget to put a light smear of oil (clean of course)around the gasket surface of the valve to assist in it sealing correctly.

as these oils have scrubbers added in them when you change it, it should come out black as this means it has cleaned the carbons and silts out of your system.

if the oil comes out cleanish so to speak it means it has not really been decarbonising anything inside the engine, which over time can lead to earlier than normal bearing damage or failure.

hope this helps.

cheers oxford

    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • 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)
