Someone mentioned 'entrapment' before and you see it often in threads relating to fines etc, im fairly sure that entrapment is an american thing and as such, has no relevance here.

Also reguarding the cops word against yours, i have *heard* that if a regular traffic cop (sergeant, constable) in a marked car pulls you up, they must show evidence of you speeding, however if it is a detective in an unmarked car, their word is deemed evidence enough.

Not correct. There must be sufficient evidence to prove the offence. It does not matter if it was a sergeant or a detective sergeant. If it was a highway vehicle that pulled you over you have no chance of beating the charge. Fines are listed into categories. 15 and under/over etc. The speed that you were caught doing must have been over 45km. The offence code it broken down to exceed speed over 45km. This means that all tickets over that speed are listed as above. The only chance that you have is if it wasnt a highway car then the officers that pulled you over estimated the speed because they are not fitted with radars hence the reason general duties vehicles dont get people for speeding. You can question their estimation skills in court but i seriosly doubt that it was one of these vehicles. Highway are fitted with radars and video cameras. If you do allect to go to court and plead not guilt, then the police have enough evidence to prove the offence. Seriously court will only cost you more money. Speeding is a very easy offence to prove. All the police have to show is that you were the driver of a motor vehicle on a road or road related area and that you were exceeding the speed by 45km. Talk to a solicitor but i think they will all say the same thing.

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSP male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSP reducing bush?

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
