well i think u all need to have a teaspoon of cement and harden the f**k up hahaha...

its not that warm... nothing like abit of sweat! good for weight loss :yes:

yeah i agree with u Adrian "harden the f**k up"...haha

i had to ride my push bike 14km's to work today and will be the rest of the week until my gearbox is fixed

then again my dark skin is used to the heat and doesn't bother me at all

+1 i'm loving this weather! You guys all forget every year its like this, why don't you go live in tasmania if ya want to be cold all the time!!

^^^ I can't agree with that enough.

The amount of people I meet all day whingeing about the weather - this sort of weather is what Adelaide is all about.

So many people love winter - it makes me sick - give me 45 over 14 and raining any day of the year!

I am absolutely loving the current hot spell!

And no, before anyone asks, I wasn't in an a/c office at all today - I was out in the heat and in my black[/] Skyline (which did struggle a little bit with the heat when I was sitting around idling for 10 minutes at a time). The twin thermos do a great job, but I must admit were lacking a bit today. Nothing a quick squirt of water on the radiator didn't fix every now and then (I keep around 20l of water in the boot for such occasions).

Bring on more hot weather!!!!!

I agree with that as far, but gimmie 45degrees then rainy summers nights with the full summer thunderstorm

*sigh* i miss full on torrential rain

the kind that starts with a crash, speaks as a roar from an angry god, and the afterechoes and tears from the heavens continue to course through the earth

yeah. i want.

-D

Only another 6 days of it though (or so they say). Must admit nothing better than working on the car with the sweat running off you quicker than you can replace it!

And you know its bloody hot here when Roxby only got to 44 today!

^^^ I must admit I did love living on the 7th level of an inner city apartment building in the centre of Darwin for nearly a year around 2000 - sitting out on the balcony watching the storms roll in over the Timor Sea .... absolutely awesome light shows!

Then when the storm got closer running inside and battening down the 'hatches' (louvre windows) as the rain hit the windows at the back of the balcony half way up.

i dont mind the heat i was in the shed most of the day fixing the aircon fan under the dash on my son's vt . had half the dash out new fan put in place and the dash back together . was sweating like a stuck pig lol .

got to admit walking back into the aircon house felt good :-)

Beach is a good idea...however i don't want my car keys stolen...i don't trust them in a bag on the beach with me 50-100m away in the water. I sure as hell ain't walking there in this heat from my place. I have a temp sensor inside the house...35 degrees according to it.

lol drive the car on the beach near you. i do all the time just dont park too close to the sea or a rougue wave will ruin your day.. i hear them at night , big splashes all of the sudden.

and i love the wild life the heat brings out too. skimpy is good..lol

    • 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)
