Yokohama advan neovas is what im after (tyre)

a038r_big.jpg

and what a GORGEOUS tyre it is too...

i was suggested a set of these by someone that knew where to get em from, let me try and get in contact with em again (theyve gone walk about) and see where he got me the quote

from memory it was some place on Westal Road/Clayton, but the only place i know of around there is the Falken Tyre distribution place, might want to give it a go and see if they can source em in

also, might want to give Traction Tyre & Suspension Centre (65 Kelletts Rd Rowville 3178) (03) 9764 2811 a call as i belive theyre Yokohama dealership and have ties within the racing industry

worth a chance

ill get back to you about that other option

EDIT: aahh sh|t, just realised your in NSW

    • 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)
