ok - with only a few minutes left for 2004 and much happening on an international scale. The most disturbing and most tragic is of course the devastating Asian earthquake and subsequent tsunamis.

I hope that everyone is contributing to the relief funds for this crisis as much as they can as their are many who desperately need it.

Australian Red Cross has so far raised more than $24 million in pledges for those affected.

Australian government has so far contributed $35 million.

It is going to take a long time for these people to get their lives together (if they ever do!!) The least we can do is give up some money for them.

Im having a quiet new years eve tonight and I am donating some of my "drinking" money to the fund. (It sounds pathetic hey?)

I reckon it would make more of a difference if we all personally donated. I just donated 50 bucks via RED CROSS , can anyone else match that (or beat it)?

Happy new year (for some)!!

thats good news that your friend is ok.

I dont know if many people know but apparently their was a huge quake out at sea between New Zealand and Tassie about 3 or 4 days before the quake and tsunami hit s.e.asia. It was one of the largest quakes on record.

I live on the south east coast of NSW and lucky for many of us the plates shifted horizontilly and not vertically.

      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.

      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)
