Saw two classics tonight, Vp commodore between gepps cross and parafield running on 3 wheels (rh rear blown and on the rim) with bumper hanging off! Then a Falcon at Salibury with the plates NOBNDRY! ment to be no boundry i think, made me :) big time.

On topic, R32 GTS-t on North tce around 10:30pm, grey and no boot spoiler wearing those new SA plates. And an R33 like Krishy's at the Yorktown/Main North intersection around 11:30pm. Red Stagea in Melbourne street around 5:30pm.

spotted a stark with 32..clean as all hell with 5 spoke ?? rims...i think they may have been impuls (dont really know my import rims) behind me on old south road yesterday arvo...then went past a black 32 gtr sitting really low on black rims...looked evil....same road opposite direction...i was in the two tone white and mud VZ ute with motor traders down the side......also spotted a few 'lines at BP

i thought you said you liked throwing your money at me :D:D

its not free money u know. u do have to dance for it.

Yeh i reackon. I keep checking the forums to see if anyone spotted me coz im everywhere driving all the time. Got pulled over last night in it but they were looking for you Carl. lol. :D I see a heap of skylines smile or wave at me but no one seems to say they spotted me. lol. Slackers.

Spotted Matt (SNIPER) driving past me at Maccas Happy Valley the other day. Gave him the good ol smile and nod. Very nice car mate.

yesterday arvo in a mini buss to the girlfriends formal spotted Sled's old 34GTR.... SPY 034. Was rather intoxicated ill admit theirs no way im sitting through a f**king formal sober.. none of the girls understood why I was so fired up when we passed it.

Im

E-slapping u sled now for selling that car...

Spotted a Black 33 pulling into Villies just as i was leaving. Got a nod. :D A silver 33 4 door on Brighton Road, flashed me as i was waiting to turn. :D A female in a Yellow S15 going up South Road, car sounds hot. Also saw Jarred in his silver GTR pulling onto Panalatinga. ;)

:blink: I was on my way home From Mallala, Had my straight through exhaust on, and i mean a 3inch pipe with no mufflers or anything :P

Spotted me at Windy just before being told by youths to do a burnout. I simply told them it couldn't because it's not a commodore. :(

Also spotted a silver R32 at Mount Lofty, possibly the one from Kahli's cruise.

    • 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.
