Hi all, iam selling my SSS which I have for more than 4 years and thats without any mechanical problems. Iam very much into cars and mechanically skilled so I did some mods mostly to go faster around corners (ie suspension), then car also has much better brakes and had CAI. Now car is back to stock power, less noisy and is less corner friendly. Still if u interested buying with parts I had ok kool I put them back for u, or actually u put them back :/

SSS is proven old school hot hatch which can with only minimal mods follow or be faster around racetrack than new atmo hatches like Civic Type R or Clio F1, also basic Skylines etc. Bit more of modding and it is real pocket rocket. These atmo SR20DE engine are very reliable and with simple and legal mods are realy capable to be in 14s with strong torque all over the rev range (had one SSS b4 this one so i know what iam talking about). Also fuel consumption is minimal because it is a light car with efficient engine. So i know this may not be SAU type of vehicle (hi power n RWD) but they can be realy fast in gear also in corners with either neutral or oversteer driving which after owning SVD Skyline does for me :) Also that atmo SR has 1 of the best engine notes.

Its atmo so cheap to insure, spend saved money in track days rather than hooning in boosted car around public roads :D Iam selling it because it is the time after 5 years of owning them.

1998 Nissan Pulsar SSS (Series 2) - Melbourne S/E

Second owner, blue paint in very good condition (waxed, hand washed etc) has front lip. Clean and standard interior.

152,000km, always doing 5-6000km service (or just b4 going to racetrack, probably done about 6-8 track days) with syn oils like Red Line, Amsoil, Motul, Royal Purple.

Gearbox box oil is synthetic Motul, power steering Amsoil full syn fluid

- new front shocks/springs ($500) was about to do rear too but came up to sale point

- alarm

- improved ignition

- new battery

- Alpine split speakers (front)

- etc. (as i said iam into cars n everything that may be dropping in performance gets replaced or serviced)

- RWC, rego expires in 4 months

Price, regular price for SSS of these conditions n kays $8200

(roughly comparing to bare stock car there is up to $2000 worth of mods and expensive replacement parts)

      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

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      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.
