Well, as some of you know I was fortunate enough to fly over to the USA for the 2008 SEMA show earlier this month!

After 11 nights in America Im glad to be back on Australian soil but the trip was awesome!! I'll have memories of Vegas, the SEMA show and so much more for many years to come!

I have attached as many photos as I can (I took over 600 pictures) to give you a taste of just how amazing SEMA and Las Vegas are.

Enjoy :P

Very cool. I've started saving to go next year with some friends. Any tips?

You cant get in to SEMA if you arent registered as part of the international automotive trade or media.

Stay at either Caesars Palace or the Belagio, they're the nicest hotels that we went through.

Take as much cash as you can but dont spend any of it on gambling... Vegas is an expensive city!

If youre not taking the missus - make sure that you visit "The Spearmint Rhino Club" - very expensive cover charge and drinks but well worth it :(

Already got that covered.

Accommodation is covered, one of the guys cousins lives close enough and is fine with us crashing at his place.

I'll keep this in mind... especially the "spearmint rhino club".... sounds intriguing!

    • 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)
