so i wake up this morning to a message saying my poor 32 got smashed, this being from fellow SAU member shaz! so i think some vandals, or a small ding, shaz goes on to explain, she was in haundorf and some drunk idiot was on the wrong side of the road, going around a corner, the car in front stopped, as did shaz, the guy behind then plowed shaz up the ass at 70km/hr!definately not enjoyable for anyone!

now shazelik is still in hopsital waiting to see a specialist for her neck, she also needs a new rear bar for a 32! lol

anyway just putting it out there, have her in your thoughts and prayers, never good for this to happen to your pride and joy, but worst of all she is hurt, so jsut think of her! and show her some SAU love!

cheers boys n girls

yea funny story tho, she let someone from work take her car up the shop, just down the road, and he comes back with a gutter rashed f**ked up rim, so shaz is having no luck! but now everyone knows her life story! lol sorry shaz! but jokes aside, is a nice car, and she is a good friend, so thoughts and prayers everyone!

That's certainly bad luck, but if she was stationary I highly doubt the guy was doing 70km/hr at impact.

That's write off speed for both cars pure and simple.

60km/hr vs stationary car is enough speed to make a VL two feet shorter.

As always, and others have said, glad she's ok - no-one likes to hear of fellow enthusiasts being injured.

thanks guys got outta hospital last nite

had to have so many scans and xrays, they thought i had fractured my neck. but they think its ok. just have to go back for more scans over the next few weeks.

i'm really not sure how fast the guy hit me, he said he was doing 85 before he even braked n he was sitting pretty close. He told the cops about 70, but i really have no idea.

the rear bar is totally f**ked, the boot is all pushed up n won't shut n the drivers door won't close properly. haven't really looked at it closely, yet but i think the reason it doesn't look so bad is becoz he must have tried to swerve to miss me and hit the tow hook on the right hand side of the car. His car is totally stuffed tho.

if anyone knows of a cheap rear bar going around let me know.

Thanks!

    • 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)
