Hey guys and gals,

I'm Luke, I'm in the throws of finding the right R32 GTR to buy. I've wanted one for years and now is the right time to 'join the club'. A couple of mates have R34 GTR's. I love the 32's. Looking forward to finding the right car and then building it the way I want it - Nice driver, but not off it's head - sleek and beautiful.

Looking forward to the journey.

Cheers gang.

Welcome, good luck finding the right car. It's half the fun of the whole experience. Get good at finding GT-R related items as you will be spending the entire time you own the thing finding/replacing shit for it!

If you get the car for $15000, prepare for another $15000 to evaporate before too long.....

We all set out thinking that way! Mine has been in (various- moved twice since it's been in bits) sheds for the last 2 years in a million pieces. Life is a bastard at throwing shit at you to make time limited! Kids, work, sport, gardens, etc make it bloody hard to dedicate time to your baby. Maybe I'm just crap at time management! Anyway, all the best, good luck finding a good one!

    • 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)
