all i can say that when a magna has 200fwKw and 496nM it's hard to catch. Turst me i own a skyline and such a magna. The skyline has 187rwKw the Magna has 200fwKw and it will win an acceleration race, but handles like a bucket of shit. LOL.

Anyway just my two cents worth.

its a shame the skyline driver got away.....should have impounded it as well.

do you think either driver has ever been to a drag strip or race track? or are they too quick for that?

yeah grand old age of 26.

I also remember when a play on the arcade machines cost 20c

Big Macs were twice the size they are now and they cost less.

No such thing as green P's

Dad drank Fosters.

Houses were cheap to buy.

Cops where cops and where out to catch the the real bad guys. None of this revenue raising bull.

Bob Hawk for Prime Minister!

They were the good old days.

All that but still no petrol for 20c per lt, that would be before you was born !!

I can only remember petrol in the 70c range.

BTW Stevo you are right on the edge of what appropriate on here. Saying that you will throw a beer bottle at the head of a cop is actually something that could land you in court so obviously we don't condone it here.

Edit your post and have a think about everything you've written in this thread, as well what you might write after now.

If you don't take this friednly warning on board I'll give you a real one. :(

sorry got carried away lol edit done!

bad luck steveo_r33

especially in a dead st with no one around, man he must have had a bad day.

yeh they can be a$$holes at times..........

i had a D follow me for about 10min

punk pulled me ova

let me off with a warning cus he couldnt fine me as he aint a road cop

phewwww

but yehh no point in speeding on normal street roads, not worth the risk in all factors...

yeh... i was just in wrong palce at teh wrong time.. it was just after the riots so i was asking for some sort of fine... driving a line and all...

he was a highway partrol officer filling in .. in just a normal cop car no radar.. so there fore he gets commision

so he took the oppurtunity to hand me max penalty and get some alot of commission!

Yeah probably.

I don't know where 20c/L came from. Maybe mistaken for 50c/L.

Grey matter not as solid as it used to be. :D

What? No... Really?

I remember seeing 74c and trying to make a 1/4 of a tank last an extra week cause I refused to pay such an absurd amount for petrol. 60c and I was cheering.

If I saw 98octane for 74c now I'd be dancing a little (well not really...) :D

Stop with the dancing Wil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111111

Yeah you're old before you're time Mr Blighter. I'm thinking we probably didn't even have Big Macs when petrol was 20c a litre. Now we're gonna pick on you until you really are old. :D:)

And Steveo, you're getting there. Thanks mate. BTW cops don't get commission. All traffic fines are paid into what they call "Consolidated Revenue" which means the polititians can do whatever they like with it as it's not earmarked for anything in particular.

Can anyone say 'pork barrels'?

Yeah that accident looks pretty bad but it wasn't from street racing and they say it might have been from just overtaking.

Man enzo's are crashing everywhere. I've seen a few videos of crashed enzos now.

I think you will find when Ronald open the first retaurant in Sydney ( Yagoona) in December ( i think) 1971 petrol was still sold in gallons and it was well and trully lower than 20 cents per lt at around 50 cents a gallon!!

I actually took my Magna sports when I had one (hate to admit it...) to WSID and did a 15.6! (not much slower than my skyrine...)

wasnt that bad, much better than the equivalant falcadoors!

I still remember when the Magna ran a faster quarter mile than the old 308 / Windsor Falcodores, and the ad campaign they had.

And when I went on that OzMadaClub memorial cruise, I found out that there's an actual Magna car club, and people do them up. Wonders never cease.

Yeah I accidentally stumbled on a meet one night at a shopping centre near my place. There was 6 or 7 mangas all done up with their chrome and neons and similar such crap, with some Australian magna club stickers on the windows... I was sAfrican Americaned at because I was driving a skyrine.. haha.. :laugh:

      Kittens in first to claim dominance of the residence, then puppies later From past experience, the other way around can be problematic to say the least  Those weird "Dobby looking"  little kittens are not cheap....LOL

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
