Go to Works auto or is it Auto Works in bentley i allways get them mixed up:confused: anyway i went looking for a front bar and they had the best quality kits by far.The thing i liked most about them was the thickness of the fiberglass nice and thick no chance of warping in the sun :uh-huh:

all i am after is a nice front bar, nothing too over the top like a veilside bar, just neat and looks better than my UGLY standard one, some of the 400R look-alike ones i have seen look good, i do know alot of the places that supply them, but just not sure of the good ones.

hehehe, me a bitch?? im gonna go sit in my corner and cry now :D

hehehe, nah i was meaning the really OUT THERE veilside fronts, i have seen your one and it is nowhere near like the other veilside ones, hey i never even knew it was veilside bitch........ :D

(oops, im back in my corner) :lol:

400R front and i think they are 400R rears aswell, the rear is just the pods that stick on to your existing bumper, i already have 400R sides and a GTR wing, just gotta wait 2 weeks for the pods to come in and then get it all fitted up, works auto took care of it all, so its much easier than having to find a painter to paint them after ya get them...

paul:

i think i mite cancel it now that i know your associated with the painting side of things, just jokes :) better be a good job, its gonna be a hard one to colour match i rekon :D

Dan:

ummmm not to sure, cause it was just a all up price for the whole lot, fitted and painted, but i think the pods were about $120-$160 just supplied not painted and fitted, but there nice pods, they had 2 different types of pods, i saw the ones that you see alot of around but they had these other ones that were a bit bigger, made it look a bit fatter, so i went for them.

Riaz:

if ya still wanna take a look at the bleeder thats kewl, but still wouldnt mind seeing the bumper just to see what kind of job they did for future reference. but whenever if ya wanna wait till next cruise or so, thats kewl

hope i didnt miss anyone :lol:

Cam,

No, I'm not painting them, but the owners of Works Auto have a paint shop associated with them, so you can alwyas get stuff done via the one place.

If you want me to paint it I will, but I wouldn't count on how good it would look.

See'ya: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).
