Sound awsome people

where are these shows??

just over 1 week to go so i think we need to get the map going

just a though a mate was saying that i may be a good idea to round up some CB's for easy comunication if going to an unkown place...Fully F&F bro :verymad:

so if we can get locations of the VW show that would be sweet

After a quick search it seems that the VW show n Shine will be at Cranbourne racecourse Map Ref 133 J6. Correct me if I’m wrong Fuzz

This may be good for the guy’s down East and South East but not sure if it will suit the others….

Throwing a spanner in the works an Idea could be that we Meet @ Cranbourne for the VW show then head up the mountain (Dandenong Mountain) towards the SAU show and shine and maybe a short cruise from there to Geelong or further……

This would most probably be a massive drive and a completely stupid idea. Though it may be good because then no one misses out on what they wanted???

Please shoot me down if you think it sux

Sounds ok to me, but I am starting off from (way) down south west so I'll be coming back this way anyhow... I'd be interested in checking out the shows for sure, so am happy with that option, would be pretty funny tunning up in a group of Stageas anyway, not usually seen in packs...

Cheers

Luke

LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL !!!!

man thats funny.

Hey Yudi - what did you have? Boy or girl? one, two or three of em ? :P

good luck with the cruise, all. hope its good weather and the boys in blue leave you be.

PS - hey Humble, got the highflow from Aaron (slide) today, fantastic! going onto the car on Monday.

seriously at this stage and looking at how hungover l'm going to be ... l reckon the SAU xmas bbq would be the go, then l guess we could always go on a short cruise after it around the bay or something for those interested indriving.

I'd be happy to sit around eating hamburgers & snags talking cars myself!! :no:

Far call Cim and I am working thank you…. Multi tasking mate

Could juts cut out the final cruise after the Show…..?

-From Clayton to Cranbourne it’s about 25 KM so 30 minutes

-From Cranbourne to Mt Dandenong is roughly 38 KM which works out to approx 40 minutes

-From Mt Dandenong to Batman Ave Melbourne it’s approximately 45 KM so round 47 minutes. This is taking the Eastern freeway.

All up it would be say 2 hours worth of driving and approx 120km worth of actual cruise, obviously more for the guys coming from GOR for example. And couple of hours at each show? In total it would be about the same as going one way to Apollo bay which is 239km form Noble Park.

We could miss Dandy Mountains and go straight from Cranbourne show to SAU show…via scenic ghetto route…it would be good to take the cars through the twisties though and get some scenery pics

i saw your post mate nice one.

Sounds fine to me,

I'll be totally lost out there so you will have to look after me... Hahahaha!

Hey the dandy mountains arent bad i live at the bottom of the mountain, there is nothing dodgy about where i live except me hehehe.

Look i am happy to do whatever, Its just that this was being organised so Stagea people could catch up and have a chat etc, I dont want people who said they can come but decide not to cause they are being dodged, ie: Luke, considering most of us live around the metro are even if we are outer suburbs we are still a hell of a lot closer than what other members are that live out towards geelong or ballarat etc...

I am more than happy to head out, over, around whatever (think I am the only one coming from this side?). We can do the GOR next time. I do agree though that the whole point was a Stagea get together so I wouldn't want other factors and events to detract from that happening.

Cheers

Luke

Fair enough and good point people…

Just though could try and accommodate all interests but good point and fair enough …

Cool so all happy to scrap VW Show N Shine?

OK new proposal.

2nd

Meet - Meet Central early (Princes HWY Clayton Next to Mexican cantina/ park)

Cruise -Dandenong Mountains

Rest -Photo’s, Lunch/food depending on time. Share stories

Cruise -Dandenong Mountains to SAU Show N Shine

SAU Show n Shine -Birrarung Mar, Melbourne Map 2F J6 (alternate 1B S12, alternate 43 K9)

Lunch/Chat/Show off beasts - Relax check out the cars maybe lunch no.2

Possible Cruise -To Geelong or further for some beachside photo’s seeing as we’ll save some time from the cranny cruise and VW show

Cruise - Petrol and Home

So that is

-From Clayton to Mt Dandenong is roughly 33 KM which works out to approx 40 minutes

-Spend a couple of hours in mountains

-From Mt Dandenong to Batman Ave Melbourne it’s approximately 45 KM so round 47 minutes. This is taking the Eastern freeway. Could do an in town cruise… Just add maybe 15 min max

-spend some time at SAU show

- maybe cruise to Geelong for a final catch up then go home

Sound good

Yep, the last destination could be optional (Geelong, could be just Williamstown or Port Melbourne if we still feel the need) see how everyone is travelling at that point I guess. I am heading that way so is no drama for me but if people want to split from the city that would be cool I think.

Sounding good though!

Cheers

Luke

    • 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).
