For everyone's info, the following Mod changes have been implemented recently.

Congratulations to the following members who have been promoted by the SAU admins to Moderator status :

SLED

Heslo

Respect their authority, or feel the pain of their ban sticks :P

Cubes/Joel has chosen to step down as a mod, but will still occasionally be around as a normal member.

Whatsisname/Matt and myself stay on as normal.

That is all.

Cheers guys :P It's a great opportunity and I hope I can serve you all well :) As I said in the wasteland it's sad that Joel felt/wanted to leave, he is a great resource that I will miss, he knew his shit but hopefully he'll still pop in here from time to time to lend a hand ;)

Joel was that sensational of a Moderator it takes two to replace him :action-smiley-069:

no - there are just twice as many d!ckheads/useless posts/people out of control than ever before - hence why Joel has had enough and has stepped down.

about fuukn time, current moderation of this shithole is useless. Pete and Luke can finally draw a line.

you had better be joking .... what don't I do that you would do differently? Your answer dictates whether you get a permanent holiday from SAU, so word it carefully.

It's ok Nightcrawler, i had just woken up and was grumpy. I was merely stating that changes had to be made because there is far too much bickering on here, too many ppl with their knickers up their clacker and more warnings need to be given out before it turns SAU into a complete joke. No disrespect to the current moderators at all, there just wasn't enough of you. I've been contemplating cancelling my account purely because there is too many ppl getting on their high horse and ruining what used to be a half decent forum back in the day.

i hardly see any probs round here as fault from the mods (excuse my brown nose) were not lil kids here and without parental supervision should be able to hold conversations without them blowing into full scale guerilla warfare

i think people need to take it easy when someone disagrees on the things they do to the car, crazy as it might seem we all have different ideas of whats good and uncool on cars

and also people need to lay off the attacks when giving your opinion on what someone should do, remember at the end of the day it aint your friggen car

just 1 of are more common repetitive boring arguments i see around the place

and remember this is the damn net no tone of voice someone could easily be joking and comments sometimes may get accidently taken seriously lighten up and pass the peace pipe.

dan midnight dribbles carry on :action-smiley-069:

This is a great forum, and I have been a member longer than most :action-smiley-069:

Problem is there doesnt seem to be too much to talk about in SA anymore when it comes to Skylines. Spotted and wasting time threads about nothing seem to dominate the headlines with some defect banter for good measure. A lot of the guys and girls with big combos wont post for all sorts of reasons, and some of the newer members - no offence - have nothing worth posting about. Its a Catch 22 and someone needs to step up with some worthwhile content ;)

Well done cubes, you've been a stable on this site since I've been a member.

I can understand your frustrations. I find it hard enough reading some of the dribble on here some days. I can only imagine how hard it is to keep things under control.

well done Joel, your efforts are appreciated.

I agree with a few others, Well done Cubes on the job you did, was sad to see you leave, but yes please stay around! I know alot of people appreciate the advice you give.

Congrats to Heslo and Sled, and to Nightcrawler on your promotion.

      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.
