Yeah was thinking about fuel efficiency difference as well, if I got an r1 would have to have exhaust already done bugger forking out heaps for an exhaust

Yer get one already zorsted, decent slip ons for R1 start at ~800 new.

hmm worth a try one of these days.

then again, looking at the menu, i'm suddenly not interested anymore. LOL.

Cause it doesn't have dog on it?

And for hot food, you could try ash's recommendation, in fact, i will eventually go there to check it out, but i'm in no hurry.

Their Sushi/Sashimi IMO is some of the best I've ever had in Melb. I usually go there for the cold dishes, not the hot ones.

Tookaiya special gets ordered every single time. Sakura Salmon rolls as well... Mint.

(I eat out a LOT :))

Also you can try Izakaya Den in Melb CBD for some more upbeat/contemporary style Jap - some great Imported beers to choose from in there as well. Must book though, the place is ALWAYS crazy busy even on a Wed night

Whoaa. Really? I've gone past that place by bus for 6 years going to school, always thought it was some average place like all the other asian restaurants on kroad.

Nope definitely not average. The owners (husband/wife) split semi recently and the wife still runs it. They also had another place in Moonee Ponds somewhere under a different name and was smaller, i believe he runs that :)

Rode in my mates 360kw xr6 and then I jumped into a mate's 200kw EVO 8.

Xr6 was crazy quick, its a three speed trimatic and pretty much fried tyres in every gear. Quick but felt sluggish. EVO felt faster lol, is it the weight and torque?

EVO's have a very short 1st through 3rd, so their acceleration is lightning quick, hence they are so fast for a streeter really

yup. no dog. i'd like some dog tataki

but since it comes so highly recommended. might pay them a visit soon, maybe tmr? LOL

i tried rabbit once, had some funky textured skin, was done in a stew. would never order that again,

snakes, and crocs and frogs are great though, neutral flavour. but pythons can be a little stringy,

monitor lizard is alright too, had some soup made from that.

wild duck's alright. not stinky like roo or lamb.

so if i were to try dog/cat, it'd only be to find out how it tastes, that's all. not a huge gastronome when it comes to obscure exotic meats.

Tookaiya - Keilor Rd. Been going there regularly for 7-8 years.

I've been to places like Nobu, Koko etc etc... And they are really good as well... However for the price, you will not find better that Tookaiya as it's not a fancy joint, just good quality traditional style. Massive thumbs up.

Not too far either, will have to give it a go. I'm more interested in what I'm assuming are the more boring dishes, chicken and rice based dishes...He's been there 2 days and already had chicken gut skewers (whatever the f**k they are) and some other strange shit...

And I eat rabbit all the time, doesn't taste gamey at all imo

    • 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)
