Tokage Imports down the coast can get bolt on flares for the r32.

looks f**ken hot when done the correct way as well.

+1 for cutting th guards though

and you will need some wheels with big neg offset and wide to make it look good.

think the OP's talking about rivetted on flared guard skins, not torana flares.

unless its a track car (or a track pig) it looks ghey with aids really. also its kinda pissweak if you do it on anything under a 30mm flared fender.

lol if my beaten up sack of shit had rivetted on guards, it'd look natural... cos it'd continue the "ghetto" theme.

but if a nice clean straight car had rivets all over it, and wasn't blended in... unless it was a track car everyone would just think you're a massive poser.

    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • 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)
