Make sure you get it surface ground on a magnetic table Shane.

We could do it for you but we are a little bit out of the way.

Thanks heaps for the replys guys!

Just got off the phone with Dan, he can do it for me :D

Cheers for the heads up paul. It only needs to last 6 months or so until i get the rb26/30 in, then i'll be heading to jim for a custom clutch.

I rang Jim today at lunch but i got some other bloke, gave him my details n told him what i needed but he never called me back...

As for the clutch....I can get you whatever clutch you want....any specs you want. Just as good as Jim Berry and probably a fraction of the cost.

See how you go though.

Not trying to start an argument. But that is a BIG BIG call.

It's all good. I know Jim Berry is one of the best. I also know Doug is just as good.

Not saying either is better than the other but I have used clutches made from both on many occasions so I know first hand. It's not like I would bag Jim out or anything, I have massive respect for him....I just prefer to use Doug as he has always looked after me and I know you are the same with Jim.

BTW...what was the big call?

Hmm, I should have phrased better. Jims advice on what to get to suit the application is probably why his are so good. He makes sure you get the right clutch for what you are using it for, then explains why. Jim and SK are the only two people I have ever come across to spend the time and have practical knowledge, to make sure you know what you are spending your money on, and why you are wasting it going down another path. For that even if I could get the EXACT same product cheaper I would still go with Jim just out of courtesy. That and does anyone else do his carbon clutches?

Doug is exactly the same. Only difference is that Doug doesn't bag out Jim but Jim bags out Nick's Clutch Service. Both are very good at what they do...the best in fact. Both are great for info.

And yes...Doug does do the Carbon clutches. I assume you are referring to the ATS style ones?

      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).

      EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
