Just an update so you guys know whats going on. I'm just waiting on a response from the supplier for the full address of the account holder and the full address of the bank the money is going into. Apparantely Australia has pretty tight security for international money transfers and just the bank account details are not enough. Hopefully they reply today so I can put the money through.

Sorry for the slight delay guys.

Lol its going to be another 30 kits in the next bloody group buy looks like it.

As an update guys, they have received our money transfer and the kits will be sent out to me some time next week once all the kits have been made up. I have purchased all the express post envelopes so as soon as they are sent to me i'll send them out.

Cheers

If they don't fit I bags them!! :(

Will be happy to pay what you paid for em + postage if you are down with that.

Sure mate :(

Thanks Basho!

Look forward to receiving them PM-R33 :(

hey pm r33, i know your gonna be busy with finishing this group buy off and personal life.... but you got a rough idea when your gonna be able to start another group buy and maybe try to get the braided clutch kits as well as braided brake lines to?

As long as the supplier doesn't have a problem with it I can do another one straight after this one ends; once every one in this group buy receives their kits and is happy with them.

So at a guess the next group buy could be in about 2-3 weeks possibly. The main thing I want to ensure is everything goes smoothly, there aren't any problems and people are happy with the kits. So as long as all that falls into place, i'll do another one straight away for the clutch lines and brake lines.

No news yet, but it is only the start of the week. I'll give them an email tomorrow to see how it's all coming along and where we are at.

WOW, you handled this awesome Phil!!! Count me in for next buy for a clutch line!!!

i've dealt with Phil before this guys and he's nothing short of perfect to deal with.

    • 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.
