weird question

moving into a new place and they gave us 1 swipecard for the building... its one of those big swipecards, you know... like a big thick playing card.

they say i have to pay a $100 deposit to get another one which is fair enough.

what i wanna know is, is there someone around sydney that can scan the code into a smaller card/chip sort of a thing that can be chucked on a keyring, if i gotta pay i'd rather have something not so cumbersome

i'm sure there are people who do this sort of thing with the way of computers and machines nowadays, just dont know where to start loooking...

cheers

Jimbo :D

i have those huge credit card sized ones in my building. all senior staff were given the option to upgrade to a little keychain one. so now using that one i must say it's great. it's about 3cm long and 1.5 wide and thick. for my other bulding i have one thats about 4cm long and 3 wide. it's not bad either, but the other HID systems one (super small one) is better.

hmm, well when i got my new one the building manager dudes have a little machine that codes the tags. i'm pretty sure the brand of the stuff was HID systems.

ok, it was site is: http://www.hidcorp.com/pr_detail.php?id=140

now you just need to find somone with the euipment, or contact their sydney distributor and ask if you can buy one of the small cards, then give the old and new one to your property manager and get it coded.

the pass i got was this one (instead of the old card sized ones):

Hey Jimbo,

I'll need more details but this is my specialty!!!

1. Do you know what type of proximity card (any labeling on the card or the reader). Need to work out what type or card it is first.

2. Once we establish what it is i need to get my hands on it to verify the data getting a duplicate is not usually a problem.

Cheers

I think you'll find you actually have to 'teach' the system the code of your key, not the other way around.

They just work by having a liffle tuned circuit that oscillates at a given (precise) frequency.

Normally you would need to add new cards to the system but if you have one working i can get duplicates so the system will not know the differencet.

It all depends on the 'card type' - but i can do most of the common ones....

Key chain ones cost a little more but can easily be done :D

Not to scare anyone off.. Im no building theif, and i don't want to know what building its for..... I am an engineer for an australian building access control system developing company. We/I have developed a system that reads almost all readers on the market. When contracts are won for buildings existing cards are usually sent to me to verify what type they are.... so if you ever need to get duplicates (for your own personal use) i can usually find out what they are encoded with and get them for you...

Cost of $100 a card make me laught as the trade price is usually $2-5 dollars each. :)

Its no HID card...

Its almost certainly a e5550 based card (which is even better -as ive got shit loads of them and they are easy to copy)

They are used on PRX, UtraProx and Sirus card readers.

I can give you the same cards or if you want something smaller ive got a proximity dot. (Its a small little dish about 12mm in diameter.

I have mine stuck on the side of my car key or i can put it on a keyfob (as shown below) to go on your keyring.

find better image and insert here...

Just need to get it to me and and ill double check what the card is, but im 99% confidant i can do that one. And as i have plenty of those ill do it for FREE in what ever combo -(card, dot, dot on fob).

Cheers

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      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.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      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

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      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).
