im thinking of spray painting my car a new colour completly but i duno what to paint it...unfortuently living in teh area i do we already ave green, blue, silver, red, maroon, 3 different kinds of purple and black, and of course white...makes it damn hard to find a good or different stand out colour...any suggestions? and i aint painting it myself, im using my dads panel shop or his old one in which is still dont leave.

Why cant i see my car that colour, i can see my bfs sprinter that colour but not mine, i like gold champange. but i reckon ill stick to darker colours to suit the back of my car with the grey oval.

Yeh i really wanna paint it midnight purple, my mates gtr is that colour. *shrugs* we shall see i suppose eitehr way its gonna look sexy so i may as well have the colour i want. I wanna find the dude who got his skyline painted at gt panels 1-2 weeks ago. Damn that paint job was bloody good, i watched it get done for the weeks it was there and then it was gone. apparently he lives in gympie...

I have finally finished a "summer" house where I ill be staying over the colder seasons and to get away from Brizzy hectic pace. But I'm up there most long week ends. So far, it's just skyline/ski/boats and one of those little red car. Everything else will be based here in Bris.

As for fotos, for some reason I cant seem to upload and my PA isnt allowed in my private residence, so just word or someone else has fot a foto of my car can put it up.

thanks.

That car looks familiar!

I used to drive one that looked just like that with the same sticker in the same place. It had 32 GTR wheels on the rear & 32 GTS wheels on the front. I dont suppose you got that one from up Maryborough way?

    • 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).
