Yeah was pretty good just to watch, unfortunately a few big noter’s that were there were complete rubbish however.

Too bad the diesel was pretty heavy on the point where I kept on spinning, it’s damn right funny seeing the Lexus complete the whole round o bout.

Shame about your buddies’ car… Myself an a few mates bailed before the others an saw that sign on the way home…

Always next time to watch :)

Cyrus... I know you would have been keen to come... You can't hide it

the sign was somewhere near supercheap. it was a 2 legged sign. he hit it with the left rear quarter right in front of the tail light. the next day we started panel beating it out and its pretty much all done. all it needs now is a coat of paint.

nismo boy, my mate said you were doing pretty well. my mate that was in his missus car is going to look at a silvia this arvo. he's going to put the motor and box out of his drag car in there (a GH sigma with a sr20 in it - the motor is only stock with the usual mods -exhaust, cooler and more boost, but it ran a 12.5 at the 2005 jamboree). so when he puts that in he'll be out and about in it. it should handle a bit better than what he was going to put the motor into - a 1977 chrysler galant wagon.

Atleast some of the crowd was happy with some good old fashion Lexus fun. How’d you buddy go with that Silvia? I think anything will handle better then a Galant!!

We’re heading back out tonight; I’ll try and snap some happy pics.

Sambo, siff not wet weather ruckus isn’t fun, of course I’m talking about legal wet weather fun...

ha ha my mate has done up an old galant wagon. his dad now has it thought, its bright yellow.

my mate ended up getting the silvia. its a natro, auto, ca18 (not that the motor will be in there long). paid $1800 for it and the body is perfect.

the galant wagon is a beast. its a 1.3 auto, with a burnt valve so its running on 3 cylinders. he decided against doing it up after he put a set of 14" wheels on it and it would just walk all over the road when it hit a bump.

      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).
