Have a look around http://www.nisswreck.com.au

They are located in South Australia, have a crap load of Skyline's being dismantled etc.

I think they bring alot of their damaged cars in from Japan to salvage for parts.

My guess is that people here with R34 GTR's are not their daily rides so even if there are plenty in this country, they are seldomly being driven, hence, no wrecks.

For all the ppl I know who has them, only one person uses their car for business.

such a tragic loss of life and car

people with 34 gtr's would usually be a little older and mature than ur average gtt/gtst driver so fewer would be smashed.

yeah thats one way of putting it.....

like i said, the R34 GT-R.... is a car which the people who want it... (generally young people) cant afford it... but the people who can actually afford it....go for something more exotic or more luxury.

pretty much every late model porsche or Merc & even BMW owner could afford one.....im sure people see Merc SL500s around....

they cost 5 - 6 times the price of an average 60,000$ R34 GT-R.

your right in a way i guess

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      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)
