Will be great.

I fabd up the camera mount.Tests for worthiness are 2moz..

Just a question...It is on the flat skid pan right...Cause when i watched an antilag vid of morgs,it looked like EC but it was more like a mini skid pan circit..

i think you are taking about the figure of 8, thats seperate from the skidpan that we will be using (unless i have missed something BIG! lol )

i have a clutch issue too, my thrust bearing has voiced itself as on the way out this last week, and i have been informed to take it easy on the clutch, convenient seeing i was looking forward to some clutch abuse on sunday!! now some of my fun is ruined :whistling:

sounds like it isnt the week for clutches :(

mines getting another look over today... *fingers crossed*

figure 8 isnt in - its very expensive :)

Ben - of course your still in mate!

Ive got an in car set up too - its a suction pad - back window and away you go!

although my vid cam is old and big and emo hahahaha

Ben,

You can have stuff in there but cause you'll be a hektik drift0r like myself :) they will be moving around and it could break (depending on what it is!)

If you need to bring stuff, theres a viewing "hut" which is under cover so you could leave it there, my mrs will be there so sh can keep an eye out, and plus we all good people!

Ive cleared everything out - last time I didnt and my tool box went everywhere in my boot :)

clutch seems fine!!!

lets just hope she's all good!!!! :)

Tosh - saw your euro there next the the dr30 sky !

Guys - thanks again for helping us make the day happen :D

Tosh - clutch was fantastic !!! :whistling:

Ben - vids would be sweet :P

Martin - good to see the change of tyres helped too :P

photos photos photos please !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cheers,

Chris

    • 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).
