im not promising a showstopping interior but by my 4th trim it was pretty damn good....

It will take between half a day to a bit more to sit down and do properly... but seeing as i get mid week RDO's ive got time during the week if you guys want to leave your trims with me...

A case or two should do it.... One case of Hoegaarden would go down perfectly i think! a slab or two of carlton would also do the trick.... you could just give me cash if you didnt want me drinking on the job (kiddin)... but im pretty easy..whatever ya want to offer i guess...i dont know how much a professional would charge? a few hundred easy i think!.

Depends how quick you guys want it done, and how long it takes me i guess.. ?

Both leather? and you'll supply the material too? ive got all the tools and knowledge :P

    • 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)
