haha

regarding the fuel - please don’t put 91 in - think about it man it’s only like 5 buks difference.....i have a n/a r34 tiptronic (i know i know i hate auto's as well - i had no choice) and it goes hard as....i didn’t get sick of the tip, its responsive when it’s in tip mode and when it’s in D (which i only use when I’m eating and driving) is smooth and still just as fast. Get extractors and exhaust and you would never notice the diff.

but again on the fuel! Don’t get a skyline if you’re not planning to feed her properly - even if it’s an N/A - I never fill up on anything less the 98 - so that’s v-power - vortex ultimate 98 – premium etc – “You only get out what you put in” hahaha Nutrigrain ad :)

Good luck with the hunt! If you got any questions about tip’s I’ll be happy to help – had mine for almost a year now :D and if you’re in the area and want to come and take a look be my guest

EDIT* just realised your in vic :) never mind lol

i own 2 cars at the moment one is a r34 25gt and my new one is a r34 gtt and i find the auto's to be pretty good. but to get power out of the N/A you have to rev it a bit more which is a good thing also :) . if you want a 4 door r34 you can buy mine without road worthy for $9,500 or with road worthy for $10,500 i have a post in the for sale section somewhere.

go the r34!

      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.
