Shane,

You can not go wrong with an intercooler upgrade ( so long as you're getting something good ). Because the FMIC will cool your engine's intake charge better than a stock cooler, you will get better fuel economy and more power for the fuel you use.

The only possible down side I can think of is that the responsiveness of the turbo may deminish slightly.

Just my 2cents :D

I was hoping to hook this kit up myself, but just noticed my aftermarket BOV position & piping, and the piping required for this kit? I wouldn't know what to do with the BOV and hooking it back up again, would it be useable again? or back to stock?

hmm I want in, but when do you need the full money by?

im in brisbane, and have a r33 with stock everything, and whats he main reason from 70mm to 90mm?

I have a custom paint job also, so if I came to you on a weekend would I be able to get it done properly? and how long does it take to get to castle hill from brisbane?

Zoix: you do realise that Castle Hill is in Sydney right?

Hell if you want to drive 12 hours for a fitting job im sure UAS can help you out.

now sorry I'm from north west qld and only just moved to brisbane.

I thought it may be near tweed heads. Guess I'm wrong. but since i loose my license shortly fo speeding(didnt know I was) well I'll ahve to get delievers, but I have 65 months to install :rolleyes:

Damn website host playin around again. (Just changed our hosting companies and having dramas with them). Sorry.

Had a couple of airboxes arrive last week that were unfortunately already spoken for and sent out to hungry customers. John has spoken recently to the inefficient (but extremely good) supplier that makes these boxes up for us to let him know that there is urgent orders for them.

Unfortunately not kik-ass. We have already orderd a 1st batch of these coolers which are starting to come through. Offer still stands to end of this month though.

My order was placed a couple of weeks ago. My deposit hasn't been debited from my VISA yet so hopefully my order still stands. I'm still aiming to complete the payment on Friday 25th July....get paid on Thursday. Please PM me with any details needed.

    • 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).
