Any mobile phone towers near by?

Your own mobile? Dodgy?

Telephone box on the corner?

Power lines, transformer?

Gas leak coming from drain?

You break without clutching almost stalling coz ur in a hurry to get past ur ex gf house?

Dodgy electrical equipment in someones front yard? ...last years xmas display was dodgy?

Any suspicious vans with blacked out windows that have "Pizza Delivery" on the side and a big mofo satellite dish on top omitting an electro magnetic pulse as u come close?

:D

Your own mobile? Dodgy? No love..its happened over the eyar and in that time i've had 3 diff mobiles.

Telephone box on the corner? Nup lil suburban st

Power lines, transformer? There is both of these but why not anywhere else

Gas leak coming from drain? What would this do??

You break without clutching almost stalling coz ur in a hurry to get past ur ex gf house? Naa if I was going past her house it would be with tyres blazing and smoke filling the street *lol*

Dodgy electrical equipment in someones front yard? ...last years xmas display was dodgy? Not that I can see

Any suspicious vans with blacked out windows that have "Pizza Delivery" on the side and a big mofo satellite dish on top omitting an electro magnetic pulse as u come close? mmm ill have to check on this one..

:D

Also up near me in the dandedongs at sky high is like a second lookout that has a massive phone tower near it.. my mates r33 won't alarm when he is up there however mine does.. so i guess this rules a similar thing out..

...They could be dodgy omitting some level electromagnetic field. I know of a non-car related problem where an electrical cable was crossed over a data cable bringing down the whole system.

What would this do??

....Maybe entering the intake stuffing the a/f ratio? Or doing something to the afm?

....Actually it may be so. Maybe ur alarm re-acts to other phone towers that his won't and vice versa? Maybe there's one a block away that you cant see?

Alternater, get it checked see how much it charges, maybe its playing up on ya, do u do a hard turn and it happens????? could be alternater not charging batter properly so u do hard turns where power steering uses allot of enerygy and u got ur headlights on and causes a problems( im just blambling what it could be dunno really not a genius lolz) , if it is a spirit i suggest u see a priest to bless your car,

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      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

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      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.
