cowboyb .... we can't do maps cos then it becomes an 'official' cruise, under the CAMS guidelines .... then we've got issues with insurance etc. - ie. if u have an accident and the cops see the map and/or decide you were on a cruise, your insurance will most likely NOT pay up.

Technical point but valid I believe.

Your best bet is to be at the start of the vruise, where we decide the route and tell everyone .... and/or get soeone's mobile and give them a buzz to catch up.

Side point: We should designate a meet-up point at/near the end of the Southern Expressway, when we cruise down it - for those that get left behind .... some people value their licences more than others :)

Time you changed your "basically stock" line dude. Your car is a BEAST! Still would be interesting to see you at the lights. :burnout:

Thanks mate. Traction use to be fairly interesting but with semi-comp tyres it's not too bad now, providing there's heat in the tyres.

The svd is an organised car club, which has rules and regulations to ahear by when you go on a cruise. It is not right of you to give the cruise and the svd club a bad image. We are all intitled to our opinions, but you should not give the club a hard time. My 2 cents & yes I am a member of the club and enjoy the forum cruises just as much as you do:)

      Kittens in first to claim dominance of the residence, then puppies later From past experience, the other way around can be problematic to say the least  Those weird "Dobby looking"  little kittens are not cheap....LOL

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
