Engineering This car has been engineered for all mods in QLD and NSW - Paperwork is in order and will be provided

Exterior: Paint is in good condition. The front left corner has a slight crease due to rubbing a tyre wall during a time trial even in Townsville.

Interior: Very good condition. Black, everything works and is very well fitted. WRX 2004 seats

Engine: SR20DET fitted with a HKS2540 turbo, EVO 6 intercooler, NISMO 740cc injectors, Adaptronic ECU, Varex(adjustable) 3 inch exhaust.

Other Details: I built this car in Townsville back in 2007 probably. I planned on racing it in the local events, but time did not allow as I was away most of the time for work. I managed a few events but decided to sell it due to the above lack of time and the fact I had a work car and no room. It then got sold to a nice fellow in NSW from this forum, who looked after it and did some extra things along the way. I bought the car back from him the middle of last year.

The aircon is cold, the stereo is subtle but capable, the varex allows you to putt along like a grandy. The Adaptronic is probably one of the most tuned ECU's in the world, I am always making a tweak here or there ensuring the car is perfect. Things like AC idle up, cold start are better than a stock beige camry.

This is obviously a pretty fun car, it has a solid power band and really is a joy to drive. I am selling it because I often have to drive 100+km a day for work, and while it is paid for, the car shouldn't really just rack up KM's for no reason. I will be getting something a little more suited to mind numbing driving and bide my time for a nice build I think.

    • 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.
