In the end I didn't see any of you out there racing in 46 degree ( over 50 at least in the car ) racing , at least I was out there supporting the sport..... You all say that we need a quarter mile strip here in SA yet none of you support drag racing by going out to the track and having a go..... So I don't think it's fair for you to laugh at someone that is actually supporting the sport. Everyone needs to start somewhere... No matter how slow or how fast you go..... I travelled 6 hours to get to whyalla alone, and that's just for whyalla. So if you do want a quarter mile strip here in SA then start supporting the 1/8 strips by going out there and having a go..... It shouldn't matter how long it takes to get there If you are true to supporting the sport then you will go out there and do it.

Drag racing thrills. Street racing kills.

I'm not saying straight line racing is for everyone...... You don't see me laughing or bagging out people that do drifting or any other form of Motorsport. In the end we do what ever motor sport keeps us happy. I just don't think it's appropriate for people to laugh at me for what they consider to be a slow time. Especially those who have never been out there and done it themselves.

Cara, you're getting ever so slighty cranky cos people dont know what you're on about half the time. Some of us realise that there's 1/8 mile around, and what you're running etc (ie cos you do have conversations with some of us, me included). So for me to see that, i go "hey, thats not bad for a first timer with a dead stock car on a f**kin hot day"

whereas everyone else goes WTF?

same as on 31 club, not everyone knows............and there are going to be some that stir. Learn to deal with them without going off the deep end at everyone..............because going off the deep end will piss off those who are willing to help you out

    • 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)
