I'd check the website before going though, just in case they decide to pull the pin on the Wed night event due to Summernationals starting on Thursday.

Good luck ;)

Im going to sydney for a tune this wednesday and thought i

What time do the gates open and start racing?

Any other skylines going to be out?

Woohoo Ian, don't foget to keep the steering wheel straight, no corners remember. I will be interested in seeing what time it will do.

There is one corner right down the end, otherwise the rescue squad will be required to get down and dirty in the sand pit. :D

Yeh, but that is AFTER the racing has finished, no corners WHILE the racing is on.

Gary it would be nice to see you come along.

But i know you arent the drag racing type :D

I will be there shortly when the weather cools down a bit. We have a project R33GTST underway at the moment, that I would like to see do an 11 before we are finished. Plus the Stagea needs to set a time, just for fun.

The last time I drag raced a 1/4 mile was in Australia at Castlereigh, however I did a meeting a few years later at the old Pomona track in California. So RUSTY would be an understatement.

:) cheers :)

PS, can't make it this Wednesday, we have a race team meeting.

Tommy, Ports, or anyone from SAU, come say hello at WSID. I have a Burgandy R33 GTS-t with SAU sticker and a GCG Turbo sticker on the bonnet, and the roughest front bar from following a Semi Trailer down the Pacific Hwy at 3am and he straddled a dead kangaroo and it didn't fit under my bar....bugga.

Ian

    • 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).
