Geeze guys, be nice.

Maybe he has a thin - yet tall - garage, and can't get out of the car easily.

Cyber Century should have them (or at least know where you can get them).

I have no idea where they are - just look for the bright lights.

dont try ebay :S unless your buying the hinges themselves. the instruction to make the hinges are available free on the net or $20 plus postage (how can an email have postage?) on ebay...

your looking about $1k+ for the hinges. seen em for $1600 off one website :S

the doors may need modifying too so it may not be a true DIY kits anyhoo. why do it yourself and screw it up or have a pro do it and screw it up. ;)

Perhaps you could enquire on group buys while your looking? i wouldnt mind the look but no f*king way am i paying that much when a highflow turbo is $900 a nos kit is $800 new rear treads $700 etc etc etc

yeh i've heard/seen some of the cheaper kits, the door only opens up to like 45 degrees, so u have to move back and sidewards at the same time... if u get me, and the good kits that go right up/forward are like 6 grand i think.

i dont really see whats so wrong with this mod, other ppl dont really seem to like it, as there are alot of ricers out there with similar things, but i dont see it as being that bad. if thats what u wanna do, then by all means do it. oh, and are these doors legal?

are they legal... probably the best question yet.

Im trying to trackdown a manufacturer buy about 10 sets off to put on my website (saikoogarage.com). They are universal, so should sell ok. Just hard tracing products back to their manufacturer sometimes... And finding decent prices on bits that work.

Ill be buying one set to go on my car (97 stagea), and if they hold up, ill purchase another 9.

the ones im looking at can be set to open to 90 and 110 degrees, so you can actually slant them forward. THey have gas struts to lift them, or there is optional electric opening mechanisms.

Looking at maybe $1200-$1500.

Im in no rush to do this, btw... But it will be done! Theres definitely a market for them here. Not everyones cup of tea, tho.

Just get a Fast Fours or a Performance Import magazine, those have quite a few ads in them and prices start from around $800

    • 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).
