The always online crap showed it's ugly head last Thursday. They were doing upgrades and something went wrong, servers were offline for 2 days. Single player game literally unplayable because of this DRM "protect the micro-transactions I mean save data" bullshit.

2014 WRX STI handles great (mainly stock)
R34 GT-R with 400-odd bhp handles like a RWD car, like the transfer case is doing nothing. Had to buy AWD controller (set to 50:50) and diffs (f=40:40:5, r=40:40:20) to get it grip, otherwise it would spin on acceleration. Maybe my suspension settings are wonky?

You guys still playing? I got myself a wheel and pedals. I love it, mainly online multiplayer but the penalty system is frustrating as hell. The online time trials are awesome.

Assetto Corsa Competizione is amazing but much more difficult.

If anybody wants to add me as a friend I am Prizank

I play single player stuff, trying to do some credit farming so I can buy the rare cars when they come up (e.g. Hakosuka).

If you join online and do the time trials they pay a lot! I'm getting 1M credits weekly by getting silver in the time trials. 2M for gold (which is far too difficult for me).

The only R34 GTR I use is the GT500 so is RWD anyway, I might only get an hour a week to play it so haven't driven most of my cars.

Some of the time trials are pretty hard, I aim for silver, too slow for golds lol.

Yeah i got 2 silvers, gold too much for me on a controller.

Been doing weekly challenges (only get like an hour or two to play per week recently, been busy with other stuff). Solid $700-900k after you cash in the tickets (and get clean racing bonuses hehe).

Yeah same here, I've wasted most of my money on Nissans for realism so need to try and recover some.

    • Have a look at that (shitty) pic I posted. You can see AN -4 braided line coming to a -4 to 1/8 BSPT adapter, into a 1/8 BSPT T piece. The Haltech pressure sender is screwed into the long arm of the sender and factory sender (pre your pic) into the T side. You can also see the cable tie holding the whole contraption in place. Is it better than mounting the sender direct to your engine fitting......yes because it removes that vibration as the engine revs out 50 times every lap and that factory sender is pretty big. Is it necessary for you......well I've got no idea, I just don't like something important failing twice so over-engineer it to the moon!
    • 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.
