This should definately be monumental :cheers:

Tez, its great to see the car community coming out to "Worship" the R34 :( hehe ..

So far so good, great organisation.. Homebush isnt too far from my place anyways, just gotta' go up King Georges Road :)

... In short, i will definately try to bring a convoy of cars down to envy the R34's :)

Hiya VikZ,

Yes things have hotted up quite a bit. there'll probably be a lull until a week before this 10th B'Day Celebration, but there's a likelihood of a fair contingent of Non R34s making up a group #3. CHO5ON with his new acquisition an R32 GT-R VS2 is one of them. He'll come in handy for next year's organisation of the 21st B'Day of the R32 GTR I believe.

The place at Mt Wilson where we intend to line up the R34s will be a long straight stretch just before Mt Wilson OR

if numbers are low, there's a short straight stretch in the middle of Mt Wilson OR

there's a picnic area after Mt Wilson off to the left.

There's also a 2nd Martial Art group interested in making this Japanese theme a major event. Vetting is still going on.

Cheers,

Eugene & Terry

A very good mate of mine has a quite large property at Mt Wilson. Its a frequent place for weekends when we both take the cars out for a run. There are some very nice corners on the way there, but the road that actually leads to Mt Wilson is quite shithouse with the exception of the 180degree uphill corner most of it is bumpy. So take it easy :(

Before you guys go organising anything for the R32's FYI the club is already organising an anniversary with some heavy hitting cars :cheers:

Thanx, we've earmarked a day to recon that road. Fortunately, that road is relatively short. Last time I was up there, the road into Mt Wilson was a bit crumbly = a bit bumpy, yes.

With regard to the 21st Anniv of the R32 GTR, there's NO competition here > all co-operation. Keep us informed!!!

It would be great to have all models of Skylines on the day. Although it is R34's anniversary, it would be good to see owners of different models rock up to commemorate (did i spell it right??) the beasts!!!

FAAARRRRRRRKKKKKK why did my car have to be out of commision for the next 6 months. Maybe a rep for deep blue should come and keep an eye on me so i don't cut myself and bleed out crying.. Everyones donation will be saving my life haha

Oh well i guess ill see everyone there if i tag along with a few mates who have GTT's

Also i was thinking maybe a prize for best exhaust note?

Though it would be hard trying to bring a chair for everyone to sit down during the contest to hide their shame while listening to the many different variety's of exhausts on these beasts.

1stly, my heart bleeds for ya David!

Next, one of the organisers proposed that ie. exhaust note at 3Krpm ; and one canned it (out of respect to property owners that'll appreciate their peace and quiet). If we have to go to the picnic grounds beyond Mt Wilson, your proposal may be re-introduced hehe.

    • 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 BSP male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSP reducing bush?
    • 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.
    • ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
