Like I said, I think he is taking on too much work. I have only gone too hime twice, once with the GTST and now once with the GTR. First time I was completely happy but this time it has been really average. I generally don't use mechanics at all as I generally do it all myself, but just wanted an opinion on the general condition on my car and I wasn't confident with getting to the oil filter. That all fixed now with the relocation kit. Not into workshop bashing but poor work is poor work none the less. 90% chance i won't be back.

Neil, he IS the best. the only negitive feed back i have heard is that he is too busy. and thats true. he only has a little shop with limited amount of space and workers. let alone the time it takes to leave the work shop and tune some of the cars he gets. Some people run monster turbos but dont run decent fuel, leading too along time spend on tunning cars.

I have been to s*bze*o and they were usless the bloke there was talking me out of doing mods to my car, unless i spend 10k.

anyway i cant give gav and the boys enuf thanks to helping me and poiting me in the right direction.

    • 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)
