OK, this is what we now need to do, organise EXACTLY who is coming and who isn't then once that is confirmed we can arrange who is bringing what, so if the thread starter could EDIT his original post so that like we can get a list of who's definitely coming that would rock as it would keep a nice point for us to refer to to know who is going so then we can arrange food etc, and for the rest of us, raise our hands to CONFIRM we're coming

ill be the first :D ME ME!!! IM COMING!!!

R31Nismoid you'll have a few weeks no matter what happens. It could be your last harah for a while though!

I gotta check what my mates are doing, but I don't think there is any reason why i can't come. I'll post a definite next week or so, it's still a couple of weeks off.

I need to get my tuned so i can hit the 200's round those bends :D (joking). Where's a good dyno-tune place east that knows their skylines? Might just go back to Ice unless there is somewhere closer to me (its a bitch getting to on the train to pick up/drop off!). Somebody mentioned a place in Mitcham?

If anybody wants a lift coming from inner east (glen iris) i can provide. I might bring a mate or two.

I really want to be there. Hopefully my Line is ready.

If not i will try to twist my mates arm to take his Line or another mate to come with his Cappacinoe. If the weather is nice we might take the roof off :D . Unfortunately no room for anything in the boot when the roof is in there ;) .

apollo bay..dmn

thats a tank of fuel just gettin there :P

Yeah i know..

but the thing is.

There will be a lot of car clubs doing cruises from what i've heard around the traps...

And most will probably only go a far as lorne i'm guessing (usually works that way)

So if we go as far as apollo bay we should have less hassles getting parking/bbq's etc... etc...

we can stop at lorne is no-body is there?

but apollo bay is only an extra 30-40 mins... and some good twsits/straight in that section... coppers to though.

And Apollo bay only had Mobil 8000 last time i was there (for those religious to Optimax might have to do a lorne stop ?)

But stuff the cops. I'm coming REGARDLESS

:burnout:

    • 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).
