Newbies welcome to this right? bloody far enough away ehh and same time as silvia meet (coincidence? heh) but i'm hoping to come :).
Big choice. Silvia meet or a club that actually does stuff on a race track.

I don't think our commitee could, or even should give a rats what they are doing.

In case you haven't noticed it's been the 3rd Tues each month for some time but come along anyway, the presentation should be fun to watch.

Ohh I know which is higher on my priorities don't worry bout that, it's just that one is 10 mins drive, and the other is 30 :O.

Hang on - this is a car club isn't it? And the cool thing about cars I find is that you can drive them.

But despite this I'm constantly amazed by the number of people that complain about having to drive to DRIVE to a CAR meet!

:confused:

Thats a fair call... And a damn good point...

REMINDER - Meeting is on tonight and includes DECA Footage & Presentations.

Come along, have a meal and meet some other members.

Plus - a few of us will be at the Casino from about 4.30ish onwards if anyone else want to come before the meeting.

Meeting was great, thanx to all that organised it again... The video footage was aewsome missed out on both events so to see the footage was good for a catch up.. Thanx Joel for the slideshow was good...

Catch who ever is going to Winton up there...

unfortunatly i couldnt get out of work in time to come. I was wondering if its going to be possible to buy/get the footage on dvd at any stage?? or maybe download it??

Top job on the photo and video footage guys! Good to catch up and have a few beverages too!

Can I please have a copy of the "Bass-Video-Whore-Who-Isnt-In-This-Version-Junky" DVD? Thanks :P

    • 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 BSP male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSP reducing bush?
    • 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.
    • ..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.
