mmmm i didnt really sit down with gavin and sort much out, which is kinda annoying me cause i wish i had, ive probably got a lot of the wrong stuff to put on, and gonna wind up with an undrivable car ie too slow off boost and too slow to come on boost ect

yeah he definitely told me a couple of things I didn't know about various components, and why it is good to go for type A instead of Type B

I would have made a couple of mediocre choices if left to my own devices

well urs will be done before mine hten cause im still waitin on parts to come

nah mine probably won't be good for at least another 8-12 weeks, as I am buying the parts when I have spare money, not gunna use the credit card, except maybe for Gavins labour and tuning cause once I have all the parts I don't want to spend another month saving to pay for the labour whilst all the parts are losing value sitting there :)

I will show what parts when it's done Warrick :D

Hi all :wavey:

still no parts, yet they were promised to me today :) dad is getting cold feet about me having a "fast car" and being an absolute idiot and its looking like it wont be done before my mechanic is due to leave oh what a great day.

    • 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)
