Hi guys,

I'm trying to help a friend of mine who's a motoring journalist for a Japanese magazine at the moment.

He's italian, but lives in Japan and sells his storys to both Japanese and Italian magazines. He's looking at selling a "Fresh from Japan" style article to some of the Aussie and NZ magazines and I wondered if anyone had, phone or e-mail addresses where I can contact the main magazines as I'm sure they'd be interested and he's a wicked photographer and gets to see allsorts that we don't and he gets to see them first alot of the time too.

And best of all, he's a GTR driver too :P

Here's a sample of some of his pics from my site, it also shows the type of events he attends as well as the traditional test drives. Have a look at http://www.gtrcentral.com then go to the overseas section.

Any help is much appreciated.

Wow Shell, thanks very much.

That's exactly what I was looking for.

Thanks.

I've read zoom and speed and I think they're the sort of mag that would be interested, are the rest the main sorta import performance magazines that are around ?

4 sounds OK for Aussie but I would have thought you'd have more, as we only really have a couple at best and one of those is debatable.

What's you've given so far is gold though Shell, thanks again.

no probs at all Fraser :)

Speed and HPI are probably your best bet. HPI is totally about imports and Speed is mostly imports as well as rexys etc...

Zoom is more technical, "build ups" etc (as you would know).

Motor and Wheels are similar to each other...except that Motor is totally performance car orientated, where I don't think Wheels is as much (I think, i don't buy it, except for the issue where this website got mentioned :) ). They're not import mags though. But they do feature nice photography and car related stories from overseas, so would be worth a try for what you want.

I really can't think of any others??? They really are the only main ones, as far as i can think of atm...

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      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.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      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

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      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).
