Hey NSW Boys n Girls!

My other half and I are coming to NSW for a few days on our way to NZ in February. Anyway its my boys 30th birthday :sorcerer: while we are over in Sydney and I really need organise something rememberable for him. So I was wondering if there's anything that would be really cool for an absolute car nut in sydney for his birthday?? I was thinking something car related like a track day or something (if anyone has an R34 GTR they want to lend us to go on the track? haha *jk*) or failing that anything you boys reckon would be really cool for your birthday ..... i need ideas.

Hugs

Sorry, I should have given you more info! lol

www.udrive.com.au it's the only way I know of to get on the track without your own car.

I haven't done one of these days, but I'm sure there is a forum member who has who'll be able to tell you what they are like.

sure are slim :w00t: arrive late on the 1st of February and we leave for new zealand on the 5th .... pauls 30th birthday is on the 4th so kinda wanted to do something special - i have some mates that are in sydney but their idea of something special is les.bian mud wrestling - so i dont think i'll be asking for their help :w00t:

haha cool, if you guys have a day where your not busy, let me know, wouldnt mind meeting up for a beer and saying G'day :rofl:

yeah everyone seems to rave about the bridge climb. something i though agh boring but because everyone has said its really good i might have to look into it further :spank:

We should have a day free for a cruise - we are there over an weekend. Might have to car whore tho .... no plans to get a rental in sydney no real point as most of the time our friends will play chauffeur haha.

We are staying at a frineds house that apparently over looks the harbour.

theres this special forces boat which goes through the harbour and out through the heads at over 100 km/h

few mates did it and they loved it.can't rremember the name ,but can find out if you want.

Does it have to be car related?

I was thinking if you are gonna do a bridge climb then maybe also add the harbour 'power' boats.

My gf and i went on one of those when we took a relo into the city.

We had a ball. was the best $40 i spent.. that day. It goes for about 40mins and the one that we went on, the 'skipper' took us wave jumping out on Sydney harbour. We headed out to the Heads and did some spins on the open water. this one only goes at about 80km/h. Was a blast tho.

Think of it like a roller coster on open water where ppl are spraying you with water!

Make sure you dont wear a see through top if you go out cos you do get wet and you do get cold. :D:P

nah doesnt have to be car related just something he'll remember.

power boats sound good :mellow: maybe i should wear see through top - that'll make it something he'll never forget :mad: haha

    • 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).
