I know the top level drifters use them but wondering what they would be like on the street and the ocasional track day and supersprints. http://www.toyo.com.au/Proxes%20R1R.htm.

to be honest they are a bit pricey if u want to waste them on the roads, proxes4 would be a good option for road and even on track, they a really sticky tyres, the r1r's are awsome tyres, you just need to ahve a look at the top drifters and you can see how grippy they are, i do recommend toyo's because they have always worked the best for me, but check out the tyre thread as said above

Have T1Rs. I reckon there's better out there for the money. What exactly, I'm not sure yet though.

Adrenalins possibly?

I have T1R'S they've been great but you can feel they lose a lot of grip towards the end of their life. Thats probably to be expected with any tyre though.

I love to see a comparison or if someone has compared the following: Adrenalins vs T1R's vs R1R's.

      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)
