not sure but I think he accidentally clipped the limiter once in there

I lol'd, yeah just a few times. A bit low on tread there at the end there too.

Ken hasn't excelled at WRC since he joined, still doing OK for a first year but he's doing a shit load better than Kimi

Ken Block is more than just a WRC driver, he's the creator of the DC shoes brand and an entrepreneur, hence why all his cars and vids have DC as sponsor.

If you guys have foxtel, check out Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy factory, he makes a few appearances with Dyrdek with the WRX and a Go kart called Gymkhana 2.1

Not sure why people bag the bloke.

If i had 20mil in the bank id be building crazy cars and doing stuff like that everyday :)

Id least with the sponsorship he would be making coin out of it.

I just don't think he has a ridiculous amount of ability, he seems like a wanker in a high powered car to me. Sure he's got decent skill but if I had hours a day to chew through tyres in a 600hp+ car I would be able to drive as well.

Want to impress me? Do it on a virgin track, with no old tyre marks from previous runs in sight. Do it in one take rather than splicing the best footage from several runs together. But maybe I'm just jealous because he's doing it and I'm not :blink:

    • 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)
