poofff

polished alloy is ppoofier than chrome

pooooooooooooooooooooooffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

Geez you have a fascination with poofs, gays and bananas. Are you locked in or too scared to come out? :blink:

Not happy Jan! This happened towing the car last night not long after having a flat tyre and finding the spare was a Commodore wheel, and the hubs are Falcon! GRRRRRR!!!!!!

I think someone's overtightened the bolt with a rattle gun. One had been broken for a while.

Hey Baron...how would the Atlas 200 go towing a trailer and car. The lock up security of the back for tools nad tyres...hell somewhere to sleep woudl be cool. Cheap rego too. Could it tow a 1300kg car + trailer?

yeah it should be able to. I mean it can carry a 2 ton payload in the back alone, so surely could tow a trailer and car, and fit a few hundred kg of tools, spares, esky, bed and pee bottle. maybe even some nudie mags and it already has a nice light in the back to read them by. it's 4.2 litre diesel so torque shouldn't be short. gearing limits it to probably 130 or so though. actually not a bad idea. you could easily have room to sleep/relax in the back. could fit heaps of shit in there and can fit 3 people in the front. can be driven on a car licence (just) and being under 4.5T is still affordable to rego.

actually it would make a cool tow car. you could set it up with a cheap compressor (supercheap have one atm $190 off, going for $170 2.5hp etc looks ok), small water (or beer) tank, 240v power, you could get some huge team wang decals for the side. and a beaded set cover for the seat.

Is worth serious consideration. I mean i can fit a bench, seat and bed in the back. Throw a littl Gen Set in their, air compressor and tools/tyres. Throw a camping fridge in there...then a tow hook. For about 25k all up could have a pretty full on support/tow vehicle...

Hmm...

hell I'll even look after it in syd for ya!

plus it's an import for that extra JDM cred, and when you reverse a japanese lady comes over the loudspeaker in japanese to tell everyone about it. great way to meet girls... can't ask for more than that.

Oh yuk,,,thats not a pretty sight. Someones in for an ear bashing. I hope that was the only damage.

Neil.

yeah that is ugly.

Richard....I was thinking about that truck but you would need somewhere to store it and the car. in the end if i do get a truck the car will have to fit inside....

dick

does it do skidz?

king oath.

dunc. yeah that is the downside. storing the thing, and you're right. the ideal way is to have a truck you can put the car into as then you effectively have a rolling garage! but my truck is cheap cheap and getting cheaper by the day! lol. and has JDM credibility which you need.

    • 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)
