Hi guys. I'm Hayley and it's my car that was stolen :)

Still haven't heard anything about it so please continue keeping an eye out for it. I have insurance and luckily they have agreed on a market value I am happy with, but I would still love to find my car in whatever condition it may be.

I will PM you a list JDM032, thanks.

Cheers guys.

It was a pretty funny evening :D Glad to have it back though I was starting to get a little excited about buying/building something new, which I still may do later.

Looking forward to getting it all repaired by insurance and having it looking nice :)

good to hear ya got it back!

consider yourself lucky that it was that easy to find....

and well done to the r31 skyline club member!

glad you got the car back and in reasonable condition. reminders to everyone to check and double check your alarm systems making sure they are in working order. it doesnt hurt to test the alarm every so often. if your worried about the neighbours getting annoyed do it in a car park or maybe at your local park. :)

Glad you got it back!!

Pretty funny story. Though if it was me i dont think i could restrain my self while waiting for the police to show up. I would of gone straight at him!

haha... f*cking theives. Deserve a bat to the face.

Anywho~ hope it all gets covered by insurance (Ur audio that is).

=)

name & shame I reckon......or just PM an address & we'll give you a name & what he likes for breakfast

Hahahaha, hell be sorry he ever thought about stealing cars!

I've got a phone number here that i wouldn't mind matching a name to, can you help Sled :)

;) It might have been fun to mash his nuts but this way I get all my shit back no problems and its all covered and going to be replaced/repaired :)

New sound system... woot! :D lol

Still thinking about selling it after its all fixed up... not because anythings damaged or bad about it, but the there's the temptation of something new now :D

well if you keep hayley, make sure you go get an alarm, kill switch and a club lock for it! See them try and take it then lol.

;) Hahaha. Yeah... I think I'd much prefer to have some kind of silent alarm that wakes me so I can run at them with the axe :D

Little angry chick running at you in her pyjamas with an axe raised screaming to run the f*** away... might be a bit shocking :D

    • Have a look at that (shitty) pic I posted. You can see AN -4 braided line coming to a -4 to 1/8 BSPT adapter, into a 1/8 BSPT T piece. The Haltech pressure sender is screwed into the long arm of the sender and factory sender (pre your pic) into the T side. You can also see the cable tie holding the whole contraption in place. Is it better than mounting the sender direct to your engine fitting......yes because it removes that vibration as the engine revs out 50 times every lap and that factory sender is pretty big. Is it necessary for you......well I've got no idea, I just don't like something important failing twice so over-engineer it to the moon!
    • 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.
