Went through two sets of Supercheap 3/8th no name brands sockets in a year when I first started playing with cars... Somehow was able to strip the insides of the sockets, even when using the correct size... and WITHOUT a breaker bar...

Then got a good set of Kingcrome 1/2" sockets ages ago and it's still in perfect nick.

Fark 3/8ths, I want to be able to work on a truck if I want to :P

I want a cool toolbox now... with rollers... and a built in fridge :(

hah i saw that the other day also! couldn't believe it....thought armin would of been in there and thought deadmau5 would of been higher tbh.. but seriously this wanker dj pauly d.. wtf, who would pay to see him..

The Situation here is that they have more tools than you Tony. :rolleyes:

Must get a set of those geared spanners i think they're called?

Wish I had like a grand to spend on tools...

Ratchet spanners are life savers

Links to a decent tool set that has everything? I might make a start to pull apart my engine whilst its sitting in my garage

I had some cheap tools that served me good for a while, but thief decided to help himself to my tool set.

I started with this set:

    • 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)
