That looks hot, Burns. The P1's set it off nicely.

Is your FMIC a cross-flow design one, where the return pipe goes back towards the passenger side to use the standard holes under where the air-box would be? If so, is the return pipe behind or under the core (can't really tell in the photos)? Where did you get the cooler from and roughly how much was it?

Yep it's a Dayz with a bit cut out for the intercooler.

It's just a R33 brake cylinder stopper.

The return pipe is behind the core and it uses the stock holes but they have been enlarged for the bigger pipes.

It came with the car so I don't know what cost is. It's a Blitz kit.

It took 4 months to get the parts and another month at the panel beaters but the outcome is fantastic.

Being backed into by a Prado wasn’t that bad a thing after all.

:ermm:

This (the blue thing I outlined in the photo) is the brake cylinder stopper - it attaches at one end to your strut tower, and on the other side to the end of your brake master cylinder to stop/reduce firewall flexing when you're hard on the brakes.

Less flex in the firewall means better and more consistent braking, and a more consistent pedal feel.

    • 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)
