hey jdill, tell me what your car looks like, I think I might have seen it in greensy a couple of times.

And about the Maloo.. maybe I have seen a maloo in husrtbridge recently, can't remeber if it was green or not.

I got an R33 gtst its silver and i got the gtr wing. Its as good as stock from outside but give it time under the hood

who in the mill park are drives an R33 thats burgandy, and has had a patch up job on the rear passenger side, and a black R33 gts-t??? they live like... a street away from a mate of mine in the mill park lakes estate, you ever see a standard looking R33 gun metal gray with blitz logos on the rear quarter windows, thats him.

That'd be my track car with the ally flashing on the rear. Don't really recall a gunmetal 33 but there is a gunmetal 32 at the end of the street. Was always trying to impress with wheelspin in the wet past my place.

yeah i seen that as well, dunno if the owner is on here but.

yeah i figured yours was a track car, with all the schtickers n what not :lol:

yeah well my mate lives the next street down. my cars there as well at the moment ( wine red R33 with p plates and allblitz stickers on the back window and rear quarters ) so if you see that hoonin round.... tell me, coz it shouldnt be :lol:

Is this the one with the little kid brother who says his big bro is gonna outrace you or whatever? lol.. has he commented on the GTR yet? hehe :)

hey,

im from greensy too, at simpson barracks.. geof, south morang pub goes off of a friday night ;) anyway, would be good to catch up with some of ya, theres a few skylines on base i could try and drag along (about 5 of them plus mine haha),

Bummer I missed this, but next time I'll come along as long (as you guys don't mind a chick in a WRX joining you)

Well it's only the 20th today so the next one will be the sixth, unless we want to get together this weekend or next weekend. So give some feedback on what you all want to do.

I'll wander over at 10:30 but if no-one is there I'm back to the couch for Indy.

Geoff, you can also email me at [email protected] if you like for stuff like this. I have to teach at Pony Club on the 6th November from 10am-3pm so I can't make that one, but would love to join you guys at the next one.

Thanks!

Jenna

:P

    • ..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.
    • Ahh. Well the block damage is a problem, you really need to run a tap or thread chaser through it to see if the threads can be saved, but any chips are likely to be bottom end bound which is bad. Earls seem to have what you need if you want to stick with mounting direct on the block: https://rceperformance.com.au/parts/earls-straight-adapter-1-8-npt-male-to-1-8-bspt-female.html, but as I said above I'd recommend remote mounting the sender
    • I'm not quite understanding or I'm missing steps here, (I appreciate people are trying to inform my brain but I am of the dumb, especially today) - All I want to do is mount the male BSPT of the OEM sender into the system somewhere without it snapping the adapter via vibration. The Nissan sender has a male 1/8 BSPT output. The block has a (very destroyed) 1/8 NPT input. I'm not really sure how a lathe assists with that, and also don't know anybody with a lathe, nor specifically what I would want to buy. I'm not really sure how adding additional adapters creates a better, more leak proof resilient seal here.
