Pre-Meet For 100Mm Certified 2014 (This Saturday 22Nd)


Recommended Posts

Hey all, i'm organizing a pre-meet for those who are going to go and spectate at this years 100mm Certified event which is on this Saturday, February 22 Meet up, have a chat, take some photos and have a nice cruise up.

MEET: 9:00am this Saturday

WHERE: Harvey Norman Chadstone (not actually in the shopping centre) it's on the corner of Warrigal Rd and Waverly Rd, the exact address is 699 Warrigal Rd, Chadstone, 3148 VIC.

LEAVE: 9:45am

Cruise up Princes Highway into Docklands, approximately 18km all together, ending up at the 100MM Certified 2014 location which is New Quay Promenade & Harbour Town Plazza, Docklands VIC. Will probably be parking at the Harbour Town multi-storey car park near the event so might need to bring along 10 bucks for parking!

Just a friendly reminder that SAU VIC does not tolerate 'hooning' and any reckless driving. Please drive safely and responsibly so we can all enjoy a nice drive up.

You don't need to disclaimer on behalf of SAU Vic, as this is not an official cruise/meet and therefore nothing to do with SAU Vic :)

Not that it isn't a good idea to drive sensibly regardless of official/unofficial cruises!

That's not bad actually man, the harbour town one is flat rate 10 bucks might go to the one you guys are going to if we don't have much numbers. :)

Yeah should've put that on there, thanks Adam!

*note this not a official sau meet/cruise just something I'm organizing*

Starts at 10 finishes 5. Should take 20 mins to get there and park brah not too far :) might leave lil earlier if we don't have big numbers so far got a few coming.

how many people are actually going to this pre meet?

cause i dont wanna rock up and there be 1 or 2 cars there lol

not too many mate, most of my mates are entrants. i think we have like 7 cars confirmed but yeah more may rock up.

    • 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.
