Yep, I miss my eyeballs watering from the raw fuel pouring out the exhaust on the startline, and then my chest and body shaking that much my vision goes blury for that 5.0 secs following (well now they do ~4.8s!) ..... ahhh memories :P

Mate I just had a fantastic flashback reading this post.........I almost forgot the feeling but that's exactly what used to happen

Yup, never used to miss the top fuellers being in adelaide. Top Alcohol and Door Slammers were good value too. Started going when i was 8 (in 1988 with my dad) and went almost every year till they stopped coming (around 1999 I think it was)

For this I severly resent Bob Jane's management of AIR, and I hope this new track goes ahead real quick and f$#ks up his sale prospects for AIR, PRICK!

I missed that feeling, it's been 9 months since I got my last dose of top fuellers & speaking of which dammn Syd they're getting to enjoy Summernats atm. But, can't wait to see the progress of this moto complex.

Its almost worth considering an interstate trip with a few interested SAU'ers for an International meet one day.

I'm definately down for an SAU track day! It's so close to my place too.. i really can't wait. Gives me motivation to do a bit of suspension and brake work in the meanwhile.

Howie you back in the country

Not yet mate, still in malaysia at the moment... will be here in east malaysia for another couple of weeks before heading to KL for a few more days then back in Adelaide. So much has happened in australia since i've been away.. i can't wait to catch up on it all, there was a full page spread yesterday on the Rudd apology in the Borneo Post newspaper.

Hi people, There is a rally on for people to show their support for the motorsport complex ( see flyer below ) The more people that show up the better. Lets get behind this and support it 100%

    • 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)
