Trailers, mmm I think we will build one, see exact costing and go from there. I only want a very very basic one. No tyre rack etc. Will be around end of the year I reckon before we look at building on

I havent been around lately but...

Finally got the rear wheels off my GTR.... Had to get a socket machined down so it would fit into the holes of my wheels, then beat the shit out of it so it would stick to the security nuts enough to get them loose. About to go clean up the rotors and paint them up a little along with a general cleanup under there.

No worries timmay. Just finished off for the day at autosalon. Have had a massive week, but the car is running awesome. Turned the injectors down to 80% and is alot smoother now. Blew an intercooler pipe off from newcastle to sydney yesterday, boost controller wasn't set and when I planted it, it ran 2.2 bar. haha, felt good till it popped.

Done anymore on the pig tim?

How's that 32 of yours coming along benny boy?

They are a sexual rim! your whole crew must have em by now?

my updates are, don't get your original 4 stud hubs modified to 5 stud. im not happy with the overall job and further more the safety of them. so i will not be using them at this stage till i get a second opinion from an engineer. but i really think that im gonna have to get some billet ones.

Off to melb for Drift Nationals this weekend so ill give a better report next week

Got a replacement RB20DET, so hopefully will have the car going a bit after new years (I want to get a few things and do some other stuff before I fit the new motor).

Its just another redtop, but it has good compression (170psi most cylinders), all the electrical connectors and stuff are in good nick and its pretty clean externally, doesn't appear to have any real leaks.

Will post a update when i get back from Brisvegas and for all of you that do know whats happening (SHUT UP TILL I GET HOME) :angry:

Other than that as some would know i was ever so nicely run up the arse in the skyline by one of the other fellow cruise attendee'd lastweek and for my efforts after getting pulled over for a RBT i got a defect for my exhaust (damaged in the incident) and lost 1 point and $80 which means i say bye bye to my lisence as that was the last point i had and i had to borrow it as well :)

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      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)
