Yep ex-Melbourne taxi. Lives a few streets away from me. Saw it on the way to work this morning. It's pretty sad they're tagging cars now... but that's the first instance in ages I've seen shit like that. That car always sits in the house driveway, too... which is even more of a worry.

Looks like some 13yr old job, though. Although some guys boat down the road got tagged a few months back with some bullshit. Not good.

Very sad that it's coming to that.

Spots for this week: Wine red 33 at the flaxmil/kenneth road round about, nice as rims on it, had SKYLINE stickers on the rear quarter windows. WNT at start of standard plates.

The red 31 from kmart tyre and auto, monday morning same place as above heading south and again today at the beach rd/south rd intersection, i was in the little '08 micra sitting at the lights looking at your car, still wouldnt mind a HR31 myself. Recon you were heading to work both days..

And today a red stag pulling down a side street off investigator drive in woodcroft, looked verrry nice, young kid driving it, recon i saw P plates too.. Driver looked like he was 17...

Red 2 door is Lupes.

'indeedly' purchasing scandy's wheels.

spotted a wine red 32 gtr, with im guessing white xd9's filling the guards and then some on marion road at 4.15pm.

a white 33 gtst going up the freeway at about 6pm, nice female blonde driver.. :D

    • 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.
