OK as far as CAMS goes here's the info:

1st job is to get the affiliation. This entitles us to get L2S licences and compete at club events.

For an event to be coverd by the CAMS Public Liability Insurance we need a permit from CAMS.

To run an event and get a permit issued we need acredited scrutineers, Clerk of the Course, trained Marshalls etc.

This is not going to happen overnight. In the short term we should use organisations like Aaron McGill to run these things for us.

Dino, you 100% sure about the requirements? I thought we were covered as long as we notify cams first. The clerk of course etc is only for speed events, I think.

Oh, and I'll be along :P

If CAMS doesn't give us insurance, just go with McGill, Finlay etc. They already have to have the insurance, so the only cost for them is the day itself.

OK CAMS got back to me.

No probs. as long as we call it a training day or similar and don't have timed evnents and prizes etc.

In the short term this is the go. Eventually we will do Motorkhanas etc.

Lets look at doing it in a couple of months as a Club event.

If you guys wish to organise another event before then and get the insurance etc. don't let the Club event preclude you from doing that.

:D

this is how it is panning out

private daythrough a mcgill

i recon 20 cars max, this means the cost will be around 160(lots of room and everyone gets a really good go

30 car max cost 120 each, getting as cramped as you really would want before getting the shits (we had 40 on sunday and it was too full)

i would rather 150 and get a shitload of time because it would be a shitload of fun and the fact we would be pushing it to get that many car( i personally can fill 7 of these spots)

definate price will be back to me by late this afternoon

You participate at your own risk.

The insurance is public liability insurance. Like if Joe Public walks through the course and gets run over.

Yerp i know :) so to be entitled to public liability insurance you have to be a club member ?

    • 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).
