got my car serviced yesterday and while my car was on the hoist we found out that my right cv boot is blown and there was oil leaking everywhere... can i still run on the track with this condition?? (i couldn't find anyone who was willing to recondition my cv boot @3pm on saturday of long weekend... :) )

I will be there with Unique Zed with new R32 GTR diff 4.3 ratio which should be interesting as first time out with lots of changes. I think may run out of legs down the straight going from 3.7 diff ratio to 4.375. Will be good for Wakefield and Oran though. Weather looks like will be perfect and public holiday should be a big one.

Does the BBQ accept Green prawns and maybe some egg plant or only snags for the V and Coke drinkers?

Join the club with my speed limiter still in place :)

is there anyone just turning up hoping that someone will drop out so they can run on the track?

i *might* drop out thanks to the cracked right cv boot...

keyword : *might* ... i really wanna run this time coz 5 of my friends r running too... but if it doesn't look good, i might just have to drop out... and fix the damn thing for next track day on the 24th july...

This cold weather is giving me some trouble, noticed pinging earlier, been out and stuffed in some octane boost, hope that will sort it, first time I've tried it.

My track tyres were showing 18 psi after 5 kms from cold. So put them up to 36 psi, but might lower them again on the track. What kind of psi are most people running with 225/50/17s ?

About to take out the stero, shed a few kgs. Easier than going on a diet.

See you there ! can't wait !

Popped the bonnet to do an oil change today and found a half dozen or so well done snails on my rocker covers.

Might have to drive a little faster so these bastards can't catch me!

Pete - I'm up for helis as usual, you bringing the gtr or the PIMPMOBILE?

    • 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)
