Just thought i'd let everyone who had a run down the strip on the weekend that we all got beated by green vyss. Claytons car. Yup, Joe rekons he smoked us all yet im still struggling to remember him even racing you guys.

He is boasting that he got the fastest time down the strip. How funny considering the Lights nor timers WERNT working. The guy in the tower box even mentioned that. Well i remember him saying it wasnt working early that day...? So pack Em' up boys, just no matter what Mod's you do or how you drive, you just cant beat the shit stream coming out of joe's mouth.

Guest Rexlr8

No, this is were your wrong. He raced Pearson in that white thing... So, he's compairing that to all of us.

And remember, the timers were working at full potential.. Says Joe... Think my ears are bleeding :D

Haha, i heard you did. You raced just as i got back to the line up so i didnt see :)

i probly wont go out to the drags dont hav enough cash but ill br happy to rip a nnnnnasty burnout saturday night im getting new tyers sat morning so if sum one wants to get a camera and record it just watch me act mad :D:bunny::);)

oh and joe a wankner camelo rang him and joe was shittin him self if u read wat it said on you tube about not to listen to those wallys clayton took his car to get checked out at melos he told him wat was wrong with it then went and fixed it and joe took all the cred saying melo was wrong and shit and clayton was lickin joe ass like no tomorrow go read it people on you tube

hey guys. since there are going to be full race bred cars out tomrorow... are we still allowed to run?

I think there is a street stock class and a super street stock or something of the sort..

Pretty sure they said if your registered you can fit into a class and have a run.

I didn't see joe until late in the day and missed his run.

I didn't see a 1 decent commodore pass at all last weekend.

15" stock tyres or 20" bling rims do not = good 1/4 times. Just wheelspin or burnouts.

If any commodore owners fit some decent tyres, then we might see some low times.

I have rotated my tyres and have been doing some 2nd gear testing :thumbsup:

Seems to make more smoke than the 1st gear efforts last week.

Im hopeing after my minor mod's to come i can land 12's. Just some heatwrap too cool things down a bit.

But i guess the strip is the way to find out. Does anyone know when there are just shit and giggle runs?

I want to see how fast i can go, but i dont want to be in some event/qualify thing against them machines.. f**k that. I would like just a run against anyone but mainly to find out my time. Not weither im faster or not.

Started off the day with BK and I doing consistent runs between 12.5 -12.8 around 105-110 mph in the heat.

Then at 6.40 pm on the last run of the day we got serious. Dropped our tyre pressures down to 18-20 psi and made the most of the cooler weather.

BK 12.17685 1/4 112.09 mph

OT 12.20889 1/4 112.41 mph

I think VSPEC is definately capable of seeing high 11's.

Looking foward to tomorrow 10 am, hope we give some of the V8 guys a good run.

Saw Fab34, thrustt, Mr.Msquito & Rexlr8 guys in the crowd. Also anyone I may have missed, Thanks for the support.

    • 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).
