I've found most 'JDM' owners go ford after getting over the jap cars

I was going to say PFFFFFT.. then realised I have a ford sitting in my carport >.<

but it's built by mazda, so it's ok :P

I'm not leaving Jap cars yet...

I just want to have 4 dr's for the baby and not have the NUMBER ONE defect magnet on the roads.

the EVO will probably be an 8MR with an exhaust and tune (~230awkw) so if i do get EPA'd it doesn't matter

fwiw, i've only been pulled over once since having the car for a "random check"

and the second time because the car was unregistered due to Vic roads not clearing the minor i got from that "Random check"

both occasions no fine or anything. the copper was polite enough to speak to vic roads on my behalf to yell at them and sort everything out so I could get to my Job interview for Merc. even offered to take me to the interview and back to my car if it couldnt be sorted today or in time.

he even looked under my bonnet and said its really nice and neat.

other than that popo dont really look at my car even if im next to them.

*Touch wood*

i would never have said that lol

    • 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)
