Well the Airshow has come back around again and i will attending and thought id ask if anyone wanted to come with. The Airshow Runs from the 20th - the 25th.

The Avalon Airshow has been running for some years now which displays some of the worlds best Military aircraft along with airliners and civil aircrafts putting on a public display.

I'm contemplating going on both the Friday night and the Saturday... If people could express their interest to this event we can organize to get tickets or purchase them on the day..

I will Hold a mini Cruise from STI Docklands, On the Sunday Morning we will leave there at 9am Sharp so arrive at around 830am.

This is an open event and anyone can attend.

We will cruise from there onto the Westgate and down to Avalon.

"Avalon Airport is located on Princes Freeway between Melbourne and Geelong; it is approximately 55kms from the Melbourne CBD

and 18kms from the centre of Geelong."

Personally i feel getting tickets in advance is a lot easier..

This is also a great family event...

You get a grand stand seat priority parking and thats about it... Good if u go for a few days as its hard standing all day and carrying a chair..

Never been Gold Class although i have considered it....

Too true Hence looking at leaving early....

Another thing is staying till later in the day too so all the traffic takes off.. Should be a little better with the new roads towards geelong thought with any luck...

Will certainly try and come say hi though... :P

I'll talk to you about it at the dyno day.

    • 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).
