I'm need to borrow a stock boost solenoid for obvious reasons ASAP. So *somebody* must have one sitting in there car, or garage unused.

If you have any sort of bleed valve or other boost controller installed, you will have a spare one. Hell, even if you don't know what it is, I'll come show you. If you have any sort of boost controller, it will be sitting in your car spare and unused.

Needs to be an R33 valve, although R32 could be the same (anybody know for sure?)

Need it ASAP (by wednesday at the latest). Will return the following week.

come on.. don't make me slap you all...

u all got one.. i just need to borrow it .. i'll come by and pick it up, even take it off your car for you (5 min job).

Most of the time its just sitting in there for decoration, as most workshops just leave it bolted on and disconnected once they install a bleed valve or EBC.

raza: thanx, if u could track it down that would be great. Its a little cylinder thing about 5cm high with a couple of house points into it on the left strut tower (just below power steering reservior). Most places just leave it bolted in. If they put on an EBC they should give it back to you.. its yours after all.

riggaP: why else does one return a car to stock for a day? Mine was long since removed unfortunately, so don't have one to stick back on.

Thanx Ula.. yours is a GTR though - doesn't it run different stock boost to the gts-t's ?

will keep it in mind if I can't find one of a GTS-T

Eastern suburbs preferred as well :D but will come collect anywhere if i have to.

Well I had lined up with Raza.. hehe... ok, might be easier seeing as you're eastside too.

I work 9-5 during the day in Box Hill. I'll give u a call tonight most likely. Can meet somewhere lunchtime and borrow it. Will be much appreciated!

    • 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)
