wandered down to sand own today to watch state and national racing series... seeing the sports sedans hit monster speeds at the top of the hill and run a 1:12 flat was worth the entry fee. rajabdamn

What kind of cars are they running?

the fastest were space-frame, fibreglass V8's... some with NASCAR and Trans-am leftovers running 360 wide slicks. but was an SAU ex-tarmac rally 32GTR in the mix too.

the rest of the day has 2 races from each series: MG's, formula Vees, some other open-wheels, sports sedans, sports cars, classic touring cars and old holdens.

i found out it was running through till sunday on friday evening... wasnt sure if i was going to make it or not depending on how tired I was after winton. was $25 spectator entry though, so a bit pricey, but fuill days worth of racing to watch. I'd rather watch it than go to F1's tbh.

    • 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)
