Hey guys,

A mate and I are considering investing in a cheap, unregistered, dedicated track car, but can't seem to find them anywhere.

Is there a carsales for track cars or something, or are they just that rare?

Cheers.

hahah yep my105.com is car sales for race cars :P

that, or go to a local race meet. odds are 30% of the cars you will see are for sale.

finally...contact the club for whatever category of car you are after, eg IPRA.

many many race cars are for sale, just not actively so.

BTW I think a cheap club style race car is a great idea. so much cheaper than tracking your road car. main issue is you will need a tow car and trailer which can blow out the budget

More like 95%. Just that the other 65% of owners don't realise it yet.

If it's anything like rallying, most of the cars never get advertised. There are plenty of gems "for sale" which never get advertised, and get sold through word of mouth, often for very cheap prices.

Again, can't speak for the track cars on MY105, but a lot of the rally cars I see advertised there are way over priced.

      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)
