Have the details for the east side meet been confirmed out of interest?

Kind of. There will be a meet there. Greg and Dan are just working out the finer details. Should be posted tonight or tomorrow. :)

I'll be there, first SAU event

Skyline - Check

RB powered - Check

Nissan - Check

Good to meet a few forum guys, see you all there, either at the Cabbo BPs or at Samford

Hi Tim,

We will be at the North bound BP (Morayfield) at around 8am.

The guys from the North are nice and laid back so it will be a good run down to the cruise.

Cool man, thanks. Will see you there

West side meet (Ipswich area) will be confirmed on Saturday after I go on the scouting run, sorry for the delay guys I just don't know the area well enough to confirm a good spot yet :thumbsup:

Dont lie Clin, we are really a bunch of uptight c*nts

It's just how they roll bro. And they call every 'G' or the N word. They really are quite strange people these North North siders.

Eh they've never gave me any trouble so they can call me G and dress like ice cube all they want... As long as they're at charity cruise :P

well after 3 hours the cars been polished and waxed,what a c@#t of a job,didnt come up too bad apart from all the stone chips and odd scratches,first time its been done so can only get better.Just got to get teddy,fuel,throw some towels in since the ac is f@#ked,and i am set to go.Cant wait,should be a great day for a great cause. :3some::action-smiley-069:

If one was coming from kenmore would there be a close pre meet? Or be best off just heading to samford?

head straight to samford unless you wanna join the northies for a run around the mountain of Mee......ok that sounds a bit wierd. nothing sus

Dont lie Clin, we are really a bunch of uptight c*nts

totally, northside snobs ftw!.....lol

And what's with dressing like 1990s gangsters all the time :/

I aint seen that.

    • 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.
