No BOV on cross overpipe.

the cost of getting the Rebik computer removed is around 160 (2hours labour) if you can get someoneto do it for you fine, but if they're not a professional auto electrician (as in operating from a biz and issuing me with a receipt) i'd want some kind of garuntee that my car will run the same after the rebik is removed.

intrested in ur gtr injectors

Thats great, do you want me to set you up on a date with them? see if you've got similar interests? or do you just wanna buy them?

They're in a box ready to be posted, let me know by phone as many people have expressed 'interest'. i might have to let the injectors decide for themselves.

Cheers

Any chance that you'd be willing to ship the aircon compressor to perth. Mine caught fire today :wave:

Cheers

Jai

i'll ship it anywhere at your cost but only if the money appears in my bank acc first.

how much would a compressor weigh? I just did a aus post calculation, to send a 10kg parcel 20cmx20cmx20cm from brisbane to perth would be $30.75. I dont think a compressor weighs close to 10kg. so $30 would be ample I'd say

Have you ever picked one up? its one of those things where it doesn't look heavy, the you pick it up and say oh shise! i almost dropped that on my toe.

TELL YA WHAT - just caus i'm nice i'll say $20 for pastage plus the marked price for the compressor!

Anybody keen?

    • 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.
    • 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.
