Sorry Guys . If I knew it was going to cause all this I would've said nothing

I've always been interested in the local build up's and as you said anthony we are all skyline owners from newy.

I will probably never be able to tune as many cars as you have effie but i am trying to expand my knowledge of tuning as much as possible so I thought it might be cool to see this vehicle getting the numbers dialed in ..

I thought wrong

Hey i appreciate your interest Kyle...but where do we draw the line. Id like to see you and catch up but the less people at the workshop the better. Ive got dozen's of people/mates who want to come and watch but have told them id rather they don't come over. Come down when we race and pit with us etc..bit more excitement and more to see/watch.

in his defense though.. it does a get a bit how you doin when there are too many people hanging around.. its harder to tune a car when people are asking questions and stuff. It happens with me all the time as well. He is the owner of the car and its his choice.

I should be tuning my car on sunday or maybe tomorrow arvo.. you can come watch me if you like :)

yeah it is hard we had a $250,000 rod on the dyno with a 80k engine.... concentration, space and quiet when you need it are paramount to getting a good result. I prefer to keep bystanders on these type of jobs to a minimum (owner, tuner, engine dyno or engine builder only)

For general customers who are happy to have freinds watch thier car on the dyno... no dramas but now and again we do have closed tuning sessions also.

Had a few hours of tuning 1pm till 4pm got it all mapped up to 7000rpm. Took our time making sure all was perfect at each load cell tuned. Guilt-Toy did a stellar job tuning such a big car, his easy does it, cautious approach was excellent, no 'rip tear bust' here. We had Mark linked up to the laptop with his computer at his shop in QLD keeping an eye on things and helping out when it was needed.

We were having a little issue with oil leaking from the turbo drain flange not being tight or maybe not having a gasket fitted. As we were stepping up the RPM the leaking oil was getting worse so instead of having an oil fire we decided to pack it up.

Yeah it was a long day.. Lots of work was done to the car to prepare it for the Dyno. I was pretty fussy and was starting to annoy paul with some of the requests before i was ready to tune it. Everything got sorted out and we only had a few hours left to tune it.

This car is awesome. So tough its just amazing how good the engine is, you can tell that it was built by a true professional *cough paul Red R Racing cough* lol :domokun:

The gearbox took a bit to get used too, I connected Mark @ Godzilla Motorsport to have a look at the map and give it a once over before going over 4000rpm and we had a couple of things that needed to be changed, after Mark was happy with the setup it was smooth sailing all the way.. There was only a couple of videos taken because Paul was too busy making sure the turbo drain was not leaking, just as we were ready to start power runs it was decided to stop and fix the issue before taking the revs up anymore.

Here are some pics, and Videos

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      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)
