R34 GT-T at Tooronga Station, Malvern


Recommended Posts

To whichever lucky sod owns the Grey/Silver R34 ( complete with SAU stickers ) which parks at Tooronga Station, a word of warning:

I often see your car at the station in the arvos when I get off the train. Last night some dodgy character was scoping it out.

He looked in the windows and watched it from a distance so I watched him from a distance. He soon noticed me looking at him and he bailed.

I dunno if he planned to break in but I thought I'd mention it.

Cheers,

E

Hes playing with fire leaving it parked at a train station all day everyday!!

I gotta agree there mate. Its always parked in the same spot. Not in the Station carpark but outside it on the street. Very conspicuous. Well, I always notice it.

i remember reading once that a large % of car theft and breakins are from train stations... Bit silly to park any car there, never mind a nice 34

you're best off buying an unregistered crapper for $200 and driving to the station every day i think..

it will be hard to steal a car even if it is parked outside a train station in broad daylight. I dont know..

u recon?? after the morning rush at the train station, there is no 1 there very easy for a thief to steel a car in the middle of the day!

ahhhh...funny. It can take a thief less than a couple of minutes to disable even the fanciest alarm system. And how many people at a station really pay any attention to what is going on in the carpark?

you may as well just leave it parked at a shopping centre each day as well... with a big STEAL ME on the window..

but surely there wil be ppl walking around, cars zooming by.. ppl frm their houses looking out .

actually, i don't u'd need to, as another large % of cars stolen are stolen from shopping centres..

Anyway, my point is if you leave your skyline at a shopping centre for long periods of time or train station BAD BAD BAD BAD

Ok firstly, the 34 is never in the carpark, its always on the street outside the carpark. ( easy getaway )

Secondly, how many times have you heard an alarm go off and taken notice? Actually, how many times have you heard an alarm?

Most alarms go off and nobody ever flinches unless the alarm keeps them awake.

Guys, now i am worried.

I park in on the road rather than the in the station so cars coming pass can see it and anyone trying to break in.

I guess I will have to collect my car now and drive into work... damn petrol and parking costs.

    • 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)
