This 1993 R33 GTST Skyline has been with me for 4 years, Previously with an RB3026 conversion it has since had a standard 80,000km engine and transmission conversion from a half cut.

The car is now basically standard with the whole rear K Frame end having been replaced including diff, arms, shafts, hubs and everything else associated.

The reason for this was that the whole drive line package previously in the car was sold together.

The clutch has been changed to a heavy duty sports organic and flywheel machined and a complete oil and cleaning service done on diff, engine and gearbox.

A 3" straight through exhaust with highflow cat has been fitted from the down pipe to cannon muffler.

Front mount intercooler kit and pod filter have also been fitted.

The car has been completed cosmetically with a full Nismo 400R style body kit including vented bonnet and genuine Nismo 400R plastic side skirts.

Bilstein shocks with king low springs.

A 42mm alloy radiator has also been fitted aswell as new Nismo master clutch cylinder and new slave with braided line, radiator hoses and heater core hoses aswell as new battery.

In the lighting department there is also a set of new 10000k H.I.D's.

The car has 18" 9.5" F-R Super Advan wheels with 90% tires which fill the guards the way they should and look amazing.

The car has also just been cut and polished.

    • 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.
