Where is Wakefield Park? I'm interested in coming. Might see if I can get others to come up from Canberra.

Weekdays I reckon would be heaps better. Don't people get *cough* sick *cough* on weekday track events?? :lol:

P.s. I'd so be up for the $125 track to ourselves bisso.

After ringing Wakefield they have no idea about expected numbers, and will not be capping the amount of cars allowed to attend the day.

Cost will be $80 + licence for those without one.

Max cars allowed on track at one time will be 14, so even if there is about 60 cars you will still only have to wait about an hour between runs and should get a comortable 5 sessions in on the day. (by my math anyway). All for $80.00

Ill be going for sure, if anyone wants to meet up on the M5 or something, driving together may help ward off the boredom on the way down. Im anticipating hitting the M5 at Narellan about 6.45am.

I'm up for it but I don't really know where to go. Can I meet you guys at the Goulburn Maccas? What time?

I'll see if anyone else from Canberra wants to come up.

No problems,

its about 15 mins from goulbourn maccas,

keep going straight towadrs goulbourn fromt here, at the mobil, turn left, and then follow the signs from there

Sounds good, meet up at

Servo at Pheasant's Nest (just past campbelltown on M5) for 7.00am sharp departure.

Goulburn Maccas at 8.45!

I've got a feeling the servo could be Mobil, can anyone confirm?

Oh, and radios on 33!

Duncan,

Theres a big servo at pheasants nest, which is about 15 minutes past cambeltown, you can't miss it, although I've forgotten what servo it is :D  (BP??)

Also, I can meet up at liverpool somewhere if anyone is interested.

its a mobile

im there

Should only be $110 ($80 to drive and $30 for licence) But you need to add fuel to this equation... that is gonna set you back a full tank in travelling and a full tank on the track... and I usually run a bottle of octaine booster. Thats about $130 based on todays prices.

Hope this helps.

Dan.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
