seriosuly, booking out a cinema would be sooooo much better.

it'd be like a big lounge room of just us SAU people. comfy seats, snacks and bevergaes, big screen and the sound to go with it...

if you do it at a drive in, yeah you're with the club, but you're all in your own cars...so its kind of secluded in that way...

i rekon the cinema option would be better. that way when we all laugh at the really cheesy bits, and let's face it, there will be LOTS of cheesy bits (Maybe some more MOTEC exhausts etc etc etc :P:) ) you aren't laughing on your own.

and I ain't taking popcorn near my car

There was something advertised on the radio today that there will be a special screening of fast and furious 3 at coburg drive in. From what i caught they are making a big event out of it with car displays etc.

Is what you guys/girls are planning part of this?

Either way, put me down for a spot to coburg, i'd be up for meeting some new people.

we are not going to coburg with the drive in fell free to go but not under SAU just as your self but you had to have you photo in by today so have fun

yeah, normal or drive in would be good

not sure if it would be worth gold class depending on the length of the movie and how good we think it will be!

but i reckon a line of skylines at the drive in to see fast and furious would be gold!!!

(have done it for one and two but without the line of lines next to us!)

yep was thinking of that.. hmmm... Richmond burney would be alright cause parkin's free and it's fairly safe...

As an option did you want to join groups with us (GT Car Club) as we are organising one on the (Saturday) 17th June 2006 at Knox (I think it is VMax, still to be confirmed).

We have about 20 people so far but I can increase the numbers if need be.

Vic Organisers: If you're interested email me on [email protected]

nope but there was a competition for free tickets.. did you enter that?

hrrm frx026 I think you mean Karingal not coburg.. can't see anything about coburg..

"On the opening night of The Fast And The Furious: Tokyo Drift on Thursday 15 June, there will be no hotter place than Village Cinemas Karingal. From 6pm to 9pm, on display in the car park outside the Cinema will be more than 20 fully blown Japanese Drift Cars. The bonnets will be up, doors will be open and the owners will be there to chat to. The Calder Park Legal Off Street Monaro will also be there with Calder Park Vouchers. See the movie and you'll have the chance to win a $500 Clarion Car Sound system thanks to Autobarn Frankston."

    • Have a look at that (shitty) pic I posted. You can see AN -4 braided line coming to a -4 to 1/8 BSPT adapter, into a 1/8 BSPT T piece. The Haltech pressure sender is screwed into the long arm of the sender and factory sender (pre your pic) into the T side. You can also see the cable tie holding the whole contraption in place. Is it better than mounting the sender direct to your engine fitting......yes because it removes that vibration as the engine revs out 50 times every lap and that factory sender is pretty big. Is it necessary for you......well I've got no idea, I just don't like something important failing twice so over-engineer it to the moon!
    • Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.
    • 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 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP
    • 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.
