Hmmmm DECA.... Considering Shockworks Coilovers and Whiteline Bushes before then... Wonder if its possible within a month, working full time?

Have already done the 4 Rear K-Frame and the 4 Diff Bushes with Whiteline goodness... So just Arms and a few other bits and pieces to go?

coilovers arent too hard to fit, but still needs alignment.

doing bushes DIY... yeah have fun with that :P

How do the shockworks coilovers compare the the BC ones?

Richo runs BC coilovers, seems to be good enough for him at the track

Coilovers I've got no troubles fitting...

Bushes, I'm not going to try ghetto remove any bushes that should to be pressed, ever again ;) Mike (Miguelone) and I spent a full afternoon trying to get the suckers out of my K Frame...

I've heard some very good things about them, local support is nice, they're only a few hundred more than BC BR's.

Currently I'm running Bilstein Shocks and Springs, I'm about 3cm too low at the zorst, I'd like something damper and height adjustable which is still silky smooth for the street (which my current setup isn't). Car was imported in 2006 with the Bilsteins on it, so they're getting pretty old I'd say.

Fair enough!

So now that your car is sorted when you coming back to the track?

yeah coilovers would be a pretty good upgrade. picking the right ones for daily use is the tricky part I reckon.

sif coilovers.

i got brand new bilstens and am getting eibach progressive rate springs.

silky smooth for daily duties and not too rolly for corners.

    • 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)
