omg ANOTHER cracked DBA rotor??? jesus these things are bloody dangerous.

I hate mine too! Less than 5000km and a track day and they are grooved and look worse than the 15year old stockers did

it was good. that must of been one of the only clean laps i got where it wasnt rev-limmited to 5.5k from overheating or cooler hoses popping off.

ps.. i know why i was poping them . i was spiking boost to 1.8bar lol.

the wastegate hose had a hole melted in it eek.

Sorry, I changed the name of the album so it changed the link code, it is all working now just go to:

Then click on the small image on the left of page (should be 4 skylines) and it will take you to the first page of photos and you can navigate thru them all there.

Drew.

it was a great day and good 2 c some skylines out there. as well as a lot of exotics (5 lotus's !!)

It was very hot, not that gr8 4 turbo cars...

I have timing equipment and i managed a best for the day of 1:12:10 which i'm not really happy with...

My best previuously is a 1:11:39 at the Evo nats and that was with stock everything ecxept for semi slicks.

any way, onward to the dutton...

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
