Hey Joey,

Welcome aboard :D

looking for Cruises and events check here out http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/fo...p?s=&forumid=37

You just missed a big cruise through Mt Nebo on Sunday, it was mad!

(you will have to keep up with the rest of the Gold Coast crew when on the cruises as we have a reputation to upkeep, shouldn't be hard in a GTR)

mainly people head to broadwater car park on saturday nights, just bewards copps have car busts there and inspect vechiles and under cover cops are everywhere, the esplande is on camera 24/7 so dont speed or do burn outs.

dont race on the m1, especailly with a cruise.

drag your friend in your own time and speeding is bad mmkay....

the laws up here are differnet also.

40+ over speed its $700 8 points and instant 6 month suspension.

speed caermas are NOT marked or hiding, like unmarked cars with speed caermas out the side, vans that sit on the side of roads and motorbike coppers crouched behind a roadworks sign.

but the main places are easy to find if you just cruise around followin people for a night, they show you everywhere.

and uhf channel is 16-20.

safe driving and hope to be cruising soon :D

surfers cruising is more posing than anything else,

organising a cruise through surfers is pretty much a waste of time. traffic lights break up groups and it becomes a pain in the ass.

cruises and events are commonly organised and details are posted in these forums (events section and otherwise)

if your bored of a sunday do what everyone else does, lap the esplinade, personally im sick of it, too many ****sticks and wannabes get down there and hang shit on people. if you dont have a gtr, big wheels or wild paint then u dont count it seems.

saturday nights if your bored is the bwcp, however esplinade is also happining then as well if you feel the need to show off to the pedestrians.

basicly sunday and saturday is a cop fest, u will be pulled over if you fart in the wrong direction.

and watch when changing gears in the wet, i changed from first to second and got done for "drive a vehicle in way that makes unnecessary noise" yes the car did move a bit sideways, but thats because i realsed the clutch a bit too fast :D

$240 and lucky not to have 3 points taken.(which is the usual fine)

    • 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.
