lol Baconer, sounds like you have it pretty easy :( I'm at home (ugh) and I pay $500/month, and they increase it each year (26yo, getting out soon!)

As for what bugs me: Mismanagement at work and resulting wasted time/resources. Won't name the gov department, but I'm not surprised they are way over budget and way behind schedule.

I'll throw one out there: the idiots that made the call on the 'new' AFP builing on Constitution Ave'. Quickly: "Yep; we'll take it, and all the free car parking that goes with it. Let's renovate it at a cost of taxpayers' XXX $millions for the next year or two and...Oh, wait. Now it's almost done,we don't want it. Turns out, it's too small for us. Oops. A slight oversight, sorry..." F**KBAGS.

Taking the farmers land of them to make 72,000 new houses and 15 suburbs around the Coppins crossing area. Bah what happen to open planning or Canberra and the poor farmers who have been there for 100's of years (yes well before Canberra was here)

Thought it was about the land owners signing a contract that declared them owners for 100 years, 100 year contract runs out in the next year or so and the government will not renew it so they loose the land.

Nails/Screws in Tyres.

This must be at least the 10th time in 3 years that I've had to a deflated tyre due to Screws and Nails. Serious where do they come from? can't imagine that many falling of the back of a truck.

Hey yaf28f - I just read what it says under your avatar... If you want to change your user name send Shell a PM asking if she can change it and the user name that you want to change it to and she'll do it for you. :D

People who overtake me on the left then get pissed when i nearly wipe them out... Anyone who has ever driven a truck knows the blind spots are massive on the right side and on the left it is nearly impossible to see. Whenever i turn right off a roundabout and then need to turn left at the next intersection some jerkoff always seems to decide he must get there before me, he zips past on the left after i've checked its clear, i nearly wipe him out then i get flipped off, beeped at, cut off and then he slams the brakes on infront of me while the truck is full, all because this yuppy f**kwit in his goddam BMW has to get back to the office to sit around batting off to whatever porn he has discovered can make it past the work filter because he isnt getting any at home as his wife is busy f**king his goddam brother cause he's such a goddam small cocked bastard!!!

Angry!!!

I get people tailgating me at night. I cant see behind my rear doors when they are that close. Thats why im putting "reverse spotties" on, with a switch to be able to use them when im not in reverse. I only get slower when they get closer.

I have so wanted to do that! My luck would be the first car I blast for tailgating would be the Police officer about to pull me over...

What annoys me is when customers at my work walk up and I ask what bowser (I work at Shell next to Epic) and they blink, turn their head to the forecourt and say while pointing at the TicTac stand "The car over then..." and then proceed to swipe their credit card and wonder why the machine isnt reading it... Apart from that tailgaters, Area Managers and alarm clocks... :dry:

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      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.

      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).
