As I'm sure the goss is out. Some of use knew...some of use thought they knew and to those who dont know...

Congrats to Powerplay at Drummoyne for bringing the only Z-Tune to Australia and best of all, make a track day out of it so we can see this thing up close and doing mach 1 down Oran park straight.

I had an awesome day (with one of the slowest cars...Who puts a R34 GTR V spec in Group 4?) Liz.....I think I owe you a six pack, we'll have to wait till times are published.

Weather was perfect and the day was almost incident free. I'm gonna go sleep for 12 hours now :D

You've been beaten to it by a different thread mate :D

I think we should all use that one for pics :(

But yeah, totally agree with the congrats for Powerplay

Im halfway through uploading pics

Nah Sam, you got me by half a second. 6 pack coming your way!

There was a 1.37 recorded under my name but htat was when McGill was driving the silvia (i wasn't far behind him though with a 1.38!). I didn't know how much fun i could have in an NA silvia, but damn that thing can corner!

Anyhow, mission accomplished for the day, by the time I left the track, all engine warning lights were on, burnt oil smoke coming through the air cond vents, busted coilovers knockin on every bump... ready for it's build up.

Damn it was an awesome day! So hot out there.

thanks to jo, alistair, tosh and rob!

Haha sorry about that being in grp 4 thing. It was totally our fault, me and Blitz requested to go in the same group and Joanne must have rearranged the groups the only way possible. Putting us in group 4...

Then Blitz didn't come...

So i was there by myself...

I think in a different group I wouldve had less holdups but ultimately I'm a noob so my time's would've still been pretty crap. Next time I'll know better...

Hi Kris,

I explained the groups to Nick ie: group 1-most experienced grading down to group 4-less experienced.

Nick actually requested that you both be put in group 4, thought it was a bit strange at the time.

Cheers

    • 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)
