Pretty woefull really - the driving rain filled up the first two spark plug holes and resulted in unintentional water injection - boost wasn't staying controlled so we backed off the gas and ran again. was still breaking up so we pulled the plugs and found the water :)

new plugs and 75hp gas with heaps less fuel was better and cleaner but still way too fat (11.3:1 AFR's and 111mph) so we bumped the gas back up to 100hp and kept the fuel as it was and saw 12.0:1 AFR's across the whole of 3rd and 4th gear.

As this was our 4th run, the time didn't count towards qualifying - would of easily made the quick 16 if it did :O:):(

Either way we still had a ball of a weekend and Stuart from Bezerkly was as good as ever - (especially when I was breaking down and being a cranky man).

Big effort to TWOOGLE too!

    • 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)
