Hey Brendan.....hope life's been treating you well. Got any projects on the go these days?

Not a lot of any-siders around here any more! We moved so far south west we fell out of Sydney altogether (because sheds)

LOL - good to hear from you guys. It's be a long time !

@Duncan No project on the boil (that's the reason I came back actually) - I"ve been in Adelaide for 4 years now - Once married and with 4 kids now - I've had no time or money for Car projects.

However, I think that is all about to change.

So I came on here looking for a clean 1989, 1990 R32 Gtst. Anyone know anything for sale ?

I wanna get a track car under historic rego.

We are now blessed with The Bend, Mallala and AIR - so time to get back into it.

Cheers boys

Still trying to work out if you are planning to change the married and kids status, or the car projects...

(congrats BTW!)

I don't know a 32 gtst for sale, probably even those are starting to go up instead of down in price these days unless they have been thrashed in between. A wanted to buy thread may still get different sellers to other sites, but the state and social parts of the forum are pretty quiet these days

How's life treating you ?

Dad life mate - I figured it was time to actually log back into the forums :) 

Finally a GTR owner again too, so might make a cameo appearance at the putty road cruise.

    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • 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)
