Having been a former commonwhore driver...tyres are cheapish...depending on where you get them from (for me they would last a while as treated the commonwhore as a cruiser car)

a typical p-plater commo driver would have the following options added on

- fully sick stereo system with at least two subs in the boot with no sound deadner...volume no lower than 20

- lowered springs that are so low that it requires a rear camber kit but owner will never get it done because it looks so good! or chopped springs

- 3 inch exhaust with a 3.5 - 4 inch cannon

- at least 18" rims (mainly from the Holden range)

- Snap-On throw-over car seat (passenger seat optional)

- Monster Tacho with shift light (mind you the car is completely stock and my possibly drive an auto)

- racing pedals

- shift knob

To Add on to Tango's typical day...I'll add on the typical night

19:30 start car and do burn out reversing out of driveway

20:00 pick up friends...do a burnout out the front of friends house

21:00 do burnout/dougnuts in macca's carpack to impress girls in a civic/lancer/mirage

22:00 - 00:00 drive with mates in car...yelling at chicks driving next to them...drag race evey car off the lights...burnout at every set of traffic lights

1:30 - pulled over by cops - unroadworthy sticker applied and/or car impounded for hoon laws

lol

stupidest incident i have seen - I was driving home at was a set of lights, I was in my car (stagea)...a AU XR6 Rolls up...fully muzzified (rims, lowered on its nuts, monster tacho, and car load of people)...he wanted to run me but i couldn't be bothered. So the lights turn green...he spins the wheels and starts to fishtale everywhere...little did he know that 3 cars behind him was a unmarked VE SS cop car...pulls him up and has the car impounded.

stupidest incident i have done - This was going back a few years ago when i was driving the commonwhore. Was coming home from a cafe and was driving back to Kelior Downs...turned down Sunshine Ave. after you get off the Calder and you have the big roundabout where Maccas is...I noticed that the sprinkers have been on and has wet the road...I said to my mate "it's going to be greasy better take it easy" for people who don't know this roundabout it goes downhill a bit - around the roundabout and then uphill out...So I went through the roundabout at about 25k and as I gave at little bit more gas to go around..the back end slid out...I've ended up sliding for about half way around the round about and then corrected and faced the right way...went back around the roundabout and got to my mates place...my other friend who saw me slide though I was going to drift the roundabout

i know this roundabout WELL ,coming from kealba along sunshine ave following a commy VL fully sick uley style , DOWN SHIFTS QUICK BRINGS IT BACK ON BOOST, sprinklers had been on , attempted right turn towards keilor , BANG SLIDE UP INTO THE MACCA'S CARPARK A GREAT FEAT AS IT GOE'S UP A DIRT INCLINE , TOTALLED , MUZZA'S RUNNING EVERYWHERE , LMAO . :)

    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • 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)
