Holly shit! I can't beleive me wanting to purchase some sau stickers was going to have this kind of response! If it's such a big Hassel I'll rip the f$&@ers off my car. I just wanted to support a club that has helped me out numerous times with advise and cruise info. There has been events and shows I would have never even known about if it wasn't for sau. Sorry for the trouble.

lax dawg

its cool that u wanna promote sau, so there are sau stickers for you to put on

alternatively, if u become a member, you're welcome to the sau-sa only stickers. exclusivity has a price >_<

in either case, your enthusiasm is to be commended, and no doubt someone here will be able to hook you up in due time

Yeah definitely don't sweat it Jeff .... has been a typical mountain made out of a molehill for absolutely no reason - some people have chips on their shoulders for some reason or other. They are just stickers ffs people, and we have already established that anyone can buy SAU style stickers, and only members can run SAU:SA stickers. Easy.

more accurately it would be to state that this has only just been defined. There was significant ambiguity due to conflicting statements from the SAU:SA exec, yourself included, which is where I would point out - this stuff should really be dealt with at the meetings, with all possibilities taken into account, BEFORE ANY OFFICIAL ANNOUNCEMENT IS MADE

That is all

-D

Geez so the exec, (who all lead extremely busy lives as it is) should get together once or twice a week and discuss and formulate policy on every single little insignificant item that may pertain to real life, SAU forums and the SAU:SA club - is that right?

I will spell it out for those confused.

We had stickers made. I posted a pic of available stickers. I didn't explicitly say which stickers would be available to which group of people, but the smart people among us realised that the stickers explicitly marked SAU:SA would only be available to club members. The member who asked about the stickers picked up his non-club stickers and was stoked with them.

Not that hard.

Negative. I will however say that members of said comittee should restrain themselves upon commenting upon official policy until said details are ran past by the Pres or Vp.

I myself have been chastised for making unapproved announcements, rightly so, and hence I hold every other member to the same high impeccable standards as mandated by our clubs constitution.

Nuff said.

And that is excellent, it is what we want to see happening, however we need to make sure the stickers used meet the application. SLED put it more lucidly than I ever could. There is nothing wrong with anyone taking the initiative on any given matter in my humble opinion - if it happens, perchance, to conflict with SAUSA club policy, then steps can be (and have been) taken to ensure that it does not happen again.

I would like to emphasise - our club is an infant. Its less than a year old and we have yet to discover how to crawl, before we walk and before we run.

Transparency and thorough practice are nothing to be insulted by - indeed, it is this accountability which will ensure the survival of any democratic body.

And I apologise to the executive, if any of its members posts seem like we are rushing the process - We are not. We're just so enthusiastic about it, we're out running our britches. Yo.

Rubbish. Pick SAU:SA up, place us in the baby Recaro driver's seat and let us drive! We can learn how to crawl, walk and run when we need to fill up with gas. :laugh:

the design looks cool :)

yo damo, just a friendly reminder of my free sticker :)

...yes posted to qld :P

just a thought guys,

maybe the SAUSA stickers are more like the old school japanese drift club bumper stickers

that way you can make the background like all red/yellow/watever - and itll be obvious from afar that you are SAUSA as apposed to the standard SAU stickers

so for example, japenese drift club bumper sticker;

they would look hot if it was all red but had white "SAU-SA" or similar - and it'd stand out from a mile away

just my 2c

ps if my idea wins, i soo get a free sticker!

:blink:

    • 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.
