why oh why would u buy a short shifter..

stupid... anyone want mine.. i pulled it out of the 180 last night.. bloody thing had to remove the top of the box off... and getting the forward to bolts was a mission.. that and the bloody circlip..

and why would u buy a shifter that meshes ur gears too quick before the syncros could spin off the gear oil and make it crunch.. stupid idea to me.

SR20 Short shift kit for sale $100 pm me lol..

obvioulsy different to a skyline. like i said before, i put a C's short shifter in my old 33, no crunching issues, obvioulsy youve got a half shagged box :thumbsup:

siff have standard syncros....dog box and learn to rev match, its the only way.

HI5 :sorcerer:

by rev match u mean to be able to smash it through the gears without the clutch? well thats what i mean by rev match ;)

Indeed I do mean that....more so rev match with a cross cut gear set (dog box) as its a biatch with no syncros. No real point rev matching on a car with syncros other than high rev downshifting to prevent compression lock ups or to challenge yourself if your clutch ever goes lol.

why would you want to see a pic of a cam lol, it is a stick with lumps on it ha ha

spose it also being for an rb2....nah i wont do that again :P

caus its a new part, every 1 wants to see new parts :domokun:

P.S watcha have for tea, left over brains? :P

sif go cross cut/helical gears when u get a dog box, its like saying u want aids that wont kill you :domokun:

os giken or ppg gearset ftw...dog engagement boxes are a biatch though, i'd hate to have one in a regular street car....way way to much effort. Some form of Syncros really are your friend.

    • 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).
