Last night around 12pm my mates 180sx was stolen from Woolaware in the Sutherland Shire, and long story short we want it back and we want to catch the person/people that stole it!

The car is a 1990 model 180sx, LICENCE PLATE NUMBER: AXZ35S, Its black and is fitted with a Standard SR Front Bar, aftermarket Side skirts and Rear Pods as well as 17" gold spoke wheels without center caps

Its got an SR20DET Black top engine, totally stock with a pod filter and a breather filter on the rocker cover breather, also has an exahust system with a smalish cannon but its reasonably noticable

Interiour has an old school kenwood single din deck, tweeters in the door trims, a weird semi standard looking gear nib and a 4 spoke steering wheel with a momo horn button [not pictured in the below photos]

Car has scratches on the lower front bar and small buckle in the front passengers guard and a paint crack on the front drivers guard, door on tthe passengers side dosent line up with the door seals either

its has a FRONT PARK LIGHT AND REAR SIDE BREAK LIGHT OUT so if your driving around at night look out for that, but the theif may replace them so dont rely on it

Here are some photos [note the steering wheel is different and the front bar scrapes are different in these photos]

Now for the part im sure your interested in

WE ARE OFFERING A $500 CASH REWARD FOR IMFORMATION THAT LEADS TO FINDING THE CAR AND/OR THE PERSON/PEOPLE WHO STOLE IT!

If your out and about and you see a black 180 parked in a carpark, on the street or in a workshop/mechanics, stop and have a closer look, even if you see a 180sx in primer or at a pannel shop, stop and look, if you find this car it will make you a quick $500, all you have todo is ring me, not asking you to be a hero and try and recover the car from the theif yourself [you can if you think your capable, we'll buy you a beer ontop of the $500 if you do]

If you find the car dont touch it! Cops will want to fingerprint it and all.

My phone number is 0401289525 its on 24/7 and if i dont answer i will usually call you stright back

Cheers people

OMG that sucks..

OMG DUDE!!

today me and peter saw some black 180sx on back of a trailer or something.. with a red s14 as well..

turning off onto the menia bypass from menia -going towards sutherland

But i dont think this is the same car tho.. it was black however.. looked very idential from rear.. but im pretty sure ididnt see any plates on the car!!

Peter was doing like 80kms, and next he freaking brakes hard to check out the car..

Maybe he might post it on ns.com section as to what he saw!!

hope you get the car back dude..

    • 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.
