I also have a R32 GTR - and I had a similar problem( I think)

Try a 4 way wheel alignment (I took mine to a WRX guy here in Brisbane) My rear passenger wheel was out by a MILE – even tho I supposedly had a 4 way alignment from one of the 'mainstream' guys only a few month b4 (no names)

Also - check that your HICAS is working - I've herd stories about guys pulling the bulb out of the dash so you don't see the warning light come on.

Rear wheel alignment - excessive toe will cause the symptoms your describe. Set it neutral.

If you still have hicas, which i will assume you do, you need to ensure the rack is centered before it is aligned. I don't have hicas anymore because its crap, but I was told some Pedders shops have the tools or whatever to center it.

What do you mean tools to centre it. Do you mean the ignition key?

Coz when you switch the car off it automatically centres. Wheel alignments are set normally after that. It's only active steer rear ends that need to be locked in place. ie. Hondas

    • 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)
