Hey all...

As discussed at our meet Thursday night , xmas dinner details as follows.....

Thursday 21st December at La Porchetta West Gosford at 7.30pm.

Bring your g/f or b/f or friend/s or whoever you like - the more the merrier - please post up if your coming and if you are bringing someone so we have an idea of numbers for the booking and I will keep updating the list.

IMPORTANT:

Just to add a few more laughs to the night we will have a 'Secret Santa' with a twist.....

Can everyone bring a 'Secret Santa' present (wrapped) to the value of $5 - keep it reasonably clean guys! Nothing offensive or really crude - the idea is to buy something you wouldn't mind keeping yourself coz your gonna either pick a pressie or steal one from someone else.....!!!!! :)

For those who haven't been to La Porchetta before, it's basically a pizza/pasta restaurant, meals are good portions and reasonably priced, parking is good - we will be able to see all our cars and the carpark is easy to get in/out of, restaurant is located on the cnr of Manns Rd and Pac Hwy west gosford (next to Domayne)..... oh - and we'll be dining alongside skylines! The restaurant owner is a car enthusiast and has many old race cars he displays in the restaurant - how fitting!!! :)

If anyone has any questions post/pm me.....

Hope to see you all there! HO HO HO! :P

    • 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).
