hello fellow owners. just gettn my first stagea its a 99 rs4 s and wondering what mods can be done to the neo engine with out spending mega bucks. (and f*kn it up) Im thinking maybee puting on a exhaust, front mount, bov and uping the psi a notch and then a good tune but this alone is costly. if anyone has done some budget mods and can help me out with some info that would be much appreciated.

Xmetal, that shot is really awesome. What sort of filters are you using on your lens?

I've only got a cheapo dslr, I'm not very good at using it yet, but am always after some useful tips. Anyways, heres a pic I did which has been heavily touched up in photoshop.....

I got my stag because I needed a car I could fit a wheelchair in through the front door *check*, It also had to fit in my garage and be able to lift the tailgate with the garage roller door down *check*, I needed it to be comfy and sporty *check and check*, and I needed a flat, easy access rear compartment so I could slide in aquariums easily that I make *check*. All those things, and they look darn hort too! *CHECK!*

Ina sad state of events, I wrote off my old pride and joy: A Honda HRV

Freshly cashed up and at the yard looking at lancer wagons (I don't know why either) I spotted the DAYZ

My pants went soggy (it probably helped that one of my mates had a serious r33)

As to children: Nopers

No wife, no kids, I'm just a bachelor with a house to myself

The car turns heads,

hows it different to a normal RS4 tho, i mean. Looks like a dayz kit and a set of ROH furys (nice wheels). Nice front grille aero FTW and it gets clear side repeaters. Whats the interior trim?

How good is autech interior trim... drool

    • 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).
