Yeah really good. I got a set of tien coil overs brought in and they were really good, kept me updated on their progress and once they landed they got to my door the next day. I would definitely use them again

I have trialed many different companies over the years the best being: www.japanparts.com, you just email them the part you're after and they will bid on it for you same as import monster but cheaper.

I would then probably use Jesse Streeter and importmonster would be my last resort, they just charge too much compared to the others. Their bidding system is easy to use but I just cant justify the price differences.

I do laugh a bit when people complain that they but a $20 item off Yahoo and complain that it costs $50 by the time it gets here. Sure shipping costs vary depending on size and value, but you still have to pay for someone's time to pack your item, put it in a container, unpack it and post it off to you, even if it's a 20c washer. I've happily used Import Monster, and will do so again when the need arises.

I'm particularly after opinions on there WHOLE car importing service. Not the parts service.

I too have used them for parts and the service was good. Of course you pay a premium! It's a business. They need to make money.

Anyway......opinions on the CAR IMPORTING service please people.

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      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)
