LOL. You show me a wrecking yard full of A31s and I'll take back the things people say about your boyfriend.

You show me an A31 that isn't an ugly piece of shit and I'll stop knobbing your girlfriend behind your back.

LOL my point is right there, you morons never fail to deliver.

Somebody (usually an A31 driver) raises a point, and you guys go off topic, forgetting the question.

Might as well lock this topic now, save these R33 guys from getting fired up and saying naughty words. :P

What is your point?

The one about 33 wrecks being more common than a31 wrecks? Please tell me it's not that :D I wouldn't want to think any less of you sweetie.

I believe that one was my point actually.

Which I can most definately prove.

You can read, right .... ?

You drive an R33, so I'd better check the basics before we proceed out little debate here...

thats because the R33 is one of the sexiest cars on the road!!! I'd rather drive my R33 than any other car! R33 is the best looking out of all the skylines not to mention one of the toughest!!!! i think my cars sexier than my missus and i think shes catching on lol

I like the 33 shape over the 32.

Cool point bro, R33s are more common and thus more available as wrecks.... do you have anything else to say about 33 wrecks being more common than a31 wrecks? Or are you just here to state the obvious?

I want this point that was raised, supposedly.

What am I not delivering, a picture/evidence of 33s being in more car yards than the a31? Most normal guys have pictures of girls on their computers... you're weird bro.

Why are we talking about A31's anyway? This thread is about the 33, one of the best and toughest street cars of all time!

Honestly some people will do anything to derail a thread! ;)

    • 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.
