noway it will cost 2k max to fix that....(unless its sum backyard job)

professionally fixed would cost 5k+

just my opinion..

thanks for your input, but if you're not intrested please dont post in the thread.

If someone is serious about it i'll fix it for them for 2k at a panel beater and if it costs more i'll pay it from my own pocket.

Unless its a serious case of mates rates or cheap repairs there is no way thats $2k to repair.

Rear passenger side quarter alone would be more than that to source, have grafted onto the car once the other one is cut off, prepared and painted.

Not to mention the passenger door, window glass, alignment etc.

My 2 cents - dont bite but i dont think its a good move to assure any potential buyer that its a "Maxiumum" of 2k. So if you cant afford to spend the 2k now and fix prior to sale, what happens when joe bloggs buys the car, has it fixed at a price of say $5-6k, and comes to you for reimbursement of the balance? will you be happily handing the cash over? I doubt it.

    • 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)
