What's the appeal in cutting Chap laps and Princes Hwy?

I always see posts from "friends" on facebook saying "Prinny tonight!", what exactly do they do there? Drags, street racing, or do they just drive a long beside each other?

Lol I loved prinny when I was 18 (I'm 23 now) and on p's driving a 250rwkw r33. These days it's just to drive pointlessly and hang with mates instead of going out wasting $200 getting wasted and then all you get is a massive hangover. But yea my car is too modified for prinny these days. Car doesn't ever see it on a Friday night lol

If you can afford it, go do it.

You said it yourself, "drive pointlessly" = waste of time.

each to their own with what they do on weekends. id rather go cruising with mates and spend $70 on a tank of fuel than spend $300 on getting pissing, getting into a fight in a club and being stabbed and carted off to hospital

there's nothing wrong with cruising with your friends on a friday or whatever night... some people prefer just hanging out, cruising, going for a meal, etc rather than hitting up a nightclub :banana:

there's a big difference in meeting up with friends socially, to being a dickhead who goes to princes hwy purposely looking for runs.

I used to go cruising all the time with mates when i was young. Back then i had a 1600 with an angry L20 and twin webbers. We used to cruise all night and never got hassled by the po po.

I dont even drive my car on the weekends at night anymore. Just not worth it. The last 6 months has just become stupid with getting pulled over for nothing and getting reamed.

I had to go to Frankston a while back for a mates wedding. got a defect and an EPA on Nepean Hwy.

Once in Franga it was crazy. Every set of lights young dudes wanting to drag doing burnouts in front of me in their fully sik Vt commos.

I understand why the cops are clamping down because of idiots like this, its just we are easy targets.

    • 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.
