So after last decas dinner fail the organiser has called it quits for this one. So we are going elsewhere this time!

We are going to the GV Hotel

Only difference being its book your own table. i suggest getting people who are keen organise tables in the thread. I have already booked a table under SAU so ask to be put near that one :P

Dinner is booked for 830 but we will be getting there around 8 for a drink first.

Its unfortunate that Taco Bills ran its course already but with the new owners, new staff, new name it simply lost its original appeal. its fair to say the new owners dont quite get us :P Shouldnt change the second half of the night though!

Below are people who i have booked for. Im sure it will be more than one table.

I meant Shane as in Purple R33 GT-R Shane (Leon and Wayne's relative.) Would you like to be on the table too? Happy to ring them up and change the booking to 9x. Also, if anyone else wants in on this table let me know now.

you sure wont be partying alone Anna. I will add you and Harsh to the tables.

I am more than happy to add people to the booking on the simple condition that if you dont turn up by 830 we wont book anything for you again :D including hotels hehe.

The last thing i want to do is organise sat night as well but i sure wasnt going to do nothing and we want everyone to come along!! hence the simple rule :D

    • 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.
    • ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.
    • And if you have to drill the oil block, then just drill it for 1/4" and tap it BSP and get a 1/8 to 1/4 BSP bush. The Nissan sender will go straight in and the bush will suit the newly tapped hole. And it will be real strong, to boot.
    • No it doesn't. It just needs an ezy-out to pull that broken bit of alloy out of the hole and presto chango - it will be back to being a 1/8" hole tapped NPT. as per @MBS206 recco. That would be for making what you had in alloy, in steel. If you wanted to do just that instead of remote mounting like @Duncan and I have been pushing. A steel fitting would be unbreakable (compared to that tragically skinny little alloy adapter). But remote mounting would almost certainly be 10x better. Small engineering shops abound all over the place. A lathe and 10 minutes of time = 2x six packs.
