That looks so good Nathan, remind me not to park near you in the future, makes mine look boring. :P That front spoiler is low though, does it scrape much?

Cheers

Just washed her for the first time since bonnet conversion, painted the red S silver and took some pics.
Thanks Issy, isn't really that low, previous cars have been much lower, is actually quite user friendly with no scrapes so far, although i am thinking of getting it lowered a bit more.

I now have the sydneykid suspension set up (minus the stabiliser bars) and my standard front bar scrapes a little coming out some driveways, grrrrr, just gotta be careful. :thumbsup:

Here is a few pics of my sedan from winton for the first time and a couple from when i was installing an oil cooler.

This was Crispy Fries sedan before i got it. Its undergone a few changes mainly relating to performance and realibility for the track. The main parts on it atm-

Greedy FMIC

HKS filter relocation kit/oil cooler with earl and speedflow fittings

Kaaz 2 way diff

Work VS 17's (8's on front 9's on rear) I run 235's on front and rear for track use

Defi Din guages (oil temp, oil press, water temp)

Whiteline swaybars

Whiteline castor bushes (running 7 degrees)

Bilstein shocks/whiteline spring combo

Whiteline front strut brace

K'N pod filter in Hi Octane heat sheild box with custom cai

4 point Harness

Batmbl spilt dump/front

Hi flow cat

Trust twin tip exhuast

Hicas lock bar

Custom sump bashplate

Thats all that i can remember off the top of my head. Slowly will start to change the suspension now that i have had a proper track day under me. Im hoping to still retain its nice streetability and not go too track orientated. Then from there i hope to improve in the looks department BUT never having a cop look at you is very nice while im still on my P's!!!

That looks much better, how much different is it on the road? You'd better not park next to me in the car park cos when you leave it'll be without those mudflaps.

Spoke to soon about my bar height, got my first scrape today. NOT HAPPY.

Bummer, doesn't it make you angry, especially when your bumper was perfect to start with.

You can feel the road more, but it does hug the corners and feels so secure, oh yes and it looks better.

I will swap you my mudflaps for your side skirts!!!!

Seriously want your boot spoiler, can't find one anywhere, $1100 brand new from Nissan including brake light. Ouch!!

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
