haha made you all look :(

this is just a quick thread because so many people around are quick to speak badly about workshops... this is something GOOD about a workshop

my car may be finalising a sale this weekend, but - as we all know... soon as a car finds out that it's for sale. it will break.

my injector O rings had corroded and decided to leak petrol on the inlet manifold while driving. and when car was off... it flooded the motor with petrol so made it hesitant to start. Pain in the ass. not to meniton how dangerous it is!

i wasn't in any hurry to fix this problem, as i am able to leave the car at home and it's important i am at work at present moment, however pressure was on me as the potential buyer wanted to view car this weekend...

i called andrew @ hyperdrive to see if there was ANY possibility of getitng the repair this week, he politely told me they're fully booked but call back later if there's a cancellation...

to my favour there WAS a cancellation. i got my car repaired the next morning, for a price i'm very happy with, and cos i wasn't able to pick up my car in time they EVEN took my credit details over the phone and let me pick up my Cefiro after hours. my car drives and starts like a dream again

juust a quick KUDOS and a job well done by the team @ Hyperdrive, keep up the good work and the excellent customer service, guys!

Ant at XSpeed tunes my R. It's a safe tune, it could make more but I'm not qualifying for Bathurst. The last thing a tuner wants is a grumpy fark complaining that his dragon blew up and they get the blame. XSpeed could make way more out of me if they put the R on a knife edge but they dont becasue its a long term relationship...pfft I'll put the 2.8 together eventually though :)

    • 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)
