plus what type of 400kw u talking about? u could boost spike to make 400kw, u could hit it with a farking 300hp shot of gas. or u could spend to $$$'s and get the power everywhere, not just being a peaky 400kw

i can't believe how wankerfull the '07 crew is :domokun:

a war with a clown indeed joshwa :domokun:

When will people be more like us Shane. They all forget what a real build is.

I think when people work out what a decent twin/triple plate clutch costs, along with a fuel system elaborate enough to supply 400rwkw, they’ll work out quick just what the real costs are for big kw figures, that last more then a few dyno pull's.

haha yeh man, only the people who have gone through the 'proper' build know the actual costs involved.

take ur example of fuel system, a complete system would set u back 3k atleast. thena clutch. then a gearbox. then a diff. axles. cooler, radiator. ecu. ebc. tuning. blah blah blah

rofl i alrady know that mate, i am reaching the finish of my project atm mate.

all i have left is a turbo and high mount manifold, clutch, emu

the point with the rx7= cheaper means to make the same amount of power it would take for a piston engine.

now before people begin to lecture a person, perhaps u should consider, that we are also educated in these matters.

its ova mate.

sell your 'porsche'

and get a rx7

your not gonna change my mind.

there is no debating this mate u cant win

end of debate.

Where did I say it’s my Porsche? I didn’t. I said I could be seen in one.

I’m not out too change your mind on anything. You’re just oblivious to what things cost. Sure, you MIGHT crack 400rwkw, but not without a big gas kit and it’s not going to last very long.

So your “400kw” rx7, really isn’t 400kw at all.

To use a word from someone very un wise.. People just can’t be “educated”.

got that mate, stuff i need (refer to previous statement)

not going for forgies, lol, so dont ask

all i have left is a turbo and high mount manifold, clutch, emu

turbo $2500

manifold $1200

clutch $1200

emu $2000

And thats on the cheap. Arent OS Giken clutch's and the likes still up around $2500 - $3500

thats a bit higher then what i can get the parts for, but most people these days pay retail for most gear.

yeah os twins are around 2.5k new. 1200 is for a jim berry clutch (what ive got to go in the gtr, he said it'll hold me to over 1000hp, it looks like i'll be seeing how real that claim is)

alright...how about get an rx7...find out its not as good as a 34 GTR, then buy a GTR....then buy a Dodge Viper :( haha gotta love vipers

A viper? lol... Yeh they are tough. But I would take the rx7 or the R34 before a Viper.

$3500 for the "and the likes" eg: HKS quds with carbon plates ect.

Jim berry is rather awesome indeed.

    • 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).
