are they all with the red heat wrap on them? could possible get black?

dont really like things to stand out on my car, less hassle if theyre semi-hidden

They all have the orange/red one. I'm the same as you. No colour in my engine bay. I'm thinking about just taking it off as it's on the inlet side of the engine bay anyway and not really that close to the block either.

I would suppose a quick coat of some black heatproof paint might work too if you're desperate.

Clutch line. R & R and bleed – 1H = $98, + $5 fluid

Brake lines. R & R and bleed system – 2-2.5H = $196 - $245 + $19.95 fluid for 1ltr Dot 4, $59.95 for 1 ltr RBF600

WOAH!! thats alot in labour.

I'm sure there will be some DIY or members who might be able to help out.

Put me down for a set of clutch and brake lines please

It's for a Skyline R34 GTT

My clutch system has had a conversion from push to pull type.

Does this make a difference to what clutch line i get?

Clutch lines should be posted out today guys.

Those who ordered brake lines as well, they should be in and posted about the middle of next week.

Shweet.... Clutch in time for DECA ...

Brakes in time for Texicana :ermm:

Sorry I get cranky when people don't read whats been written already. The clutch lines were posted late last week. They will arrive soon. The brake lines will be posted this week sometime if things go according to plan. If people want to know how much things cost, read the 1'st post. It's not that hard is it guys?

I get cranky when people don't read whats been written already.

Settle Petal - Abo said they "should" be posted, no need to get cranky if someone confirms... we're about helping each other here :D

Now take a chill pill and be nice :bunny:

    • 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).
