Guys and Girls-

Because i've been out of action for a few months *cough* *cough* ( 6 months) plus the other probelms *cough*, i think its time for a meet and greet again.

What do you guys and girls think- yes we meet up sometimes in small groups.

What happened to the monthly meets???

I was thinking about a Saturday, 20th July:uh-huh:

And as you can see i can legally drive now (after the 18th July) :uh-huh: :uh-huh:

For how long-- i don't know?????????????

My record isn't crash hot:lol: :lol:

A joint, BIG canberra sydney cruise would be great.

But driving to canberra would be quite a trip :P

Im always up for a cruise & would be nice 2 see peoples faces instead of avatars (got nothing againts them though) & there cars.

Trade/swap stories & whats been done to other peoples cars & a bbq also.

Just an idea

Joe.

How about we organise one sometime mid-august? I think maybe we could get some more clubs involved. I could get some people from Autostyle along, Bayside imports might come along, and we'll see who else wants to come. Depends who you like i spose. SilviaNSW, Impact AutoSports, Datnet, Xzibit, DtmPower, few others. I think it'd be good to organise a big cruise though we've gotta seriously consider some things to make sure it's organised heaps well..

We need a meeting point which is easy to get to, with PLENTY of parking, and where traffic wont be a major issue.

We need contact numbers, UHF radios, or maps, some way of keeping everybody together and knowing where they're going exactly.

Then we need somewhere nice to meet in the end, where once again there's enough parking space and traffic won't be a major issue.

I'm not too good with directions etc, so somebody else can organise it, but like i said make sure we get it right!

I know SilviaNSW have CB's, not sure about any other clubs. Spose we can just exchange mobile numbers or something, just so if anyone gets lost we can round them up.

Police attention seems to be a big issue lately also, so we'd want a destination/route that's not going to take us past areas where police are known to be plicks, right? And also i think it'd be good to make sure we don't bring along anybody (ie: other clubs known to do silly things) so that it doesn't end up giving our club a bad name.

Just my stupid thoughts :D

      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.

      And if you have to drill the oil block, then just drill it for 1/4" and tap it BSP and get a 1/8 to 1/4 BSP bush. The Nissan sender will go straight in and the bush will suit the newly tapped hole. And it will be real strong, to boot.

      No it doesn't. It just needs an ezy-out to pull that broken bit of alloy out of the hole and presto chango - it will be back to being a 1/8" hole tapped NPT. as per @MBS206 recco. That would be for making what you had in alloy, in steel. If you wanted to do just that instead of remote mounting like @Duncan and I have been pushing. A steel fitting would be unbreakable (compared to that tragically skinny little alloy adapter). But remote mounting would almost certainly be 10x better. Small engineering shops abound all over the place. A lathe and 10 minutes of time = 2x six packs.
