From what I understand R33 GTS's arent being complianced anymore, at least not in WA.

You're best looking at private sales, there is a for sale section here. Dealers are likely to charge about $16k, too much in my opinion.

Best idea would be to have a good read through the NA section, and you'll find specs and mod suggestions.

As you're new too, Ill say it first, the SEARCH button is your best friend in here, pretty much most things have been asked once or twice already.

Edit: Have removed prev. comment until cleared up. Thanks

Well, you cant import NA anymore, unless you owned it in Japan for a year, so rule that out.

DOnt ask me what drugs your on, but u can import r33 non turbos and r32 under the 15 year rule under the new import scheme. Prestaige motorsports, J-Spec and any other private importer.

Do your research before misinforming people.

cheers

Yes, thats right all cars no mater what make of model once complied must be stock. You can still import hi performace cars from japan to australia but the complince will be very expensive because you have to remove all the non standard accesories fitted to the car.

r33 turbos stockinto australia are around 16k on road.

i may b selling mine in a few months series2 $18000

there are a few GTS skylines around in Perth if you find a private sale you could probably bargain it down 2 $13grand but id say you mite need a bit more for a decent one most of the ones ive seen in the newspaper and autotrader have been around the 15 or 16 grand range

you could import one but i dont think itll b worth it you wont save much. i imported mine almost a year ago and didnt end up saving as much as i thought i would but if you want a newer one then impoting may b the way 2 go???

    • 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.
