Spotted a gunmetal or silver series 1 R33 with really foggy headlight lenses last night around 7-ish, chick driver, in Cannon Hill, following so closely that I couldn't see the headlights... tailgating at night in the rain is bad, mmkay?

haha, yeah, my horn is this little girly thing :O

everyone who hears it calls it the 'polite horn' as if its 'politely' asking the cars to get out of the way, or politely asking them to wake up and stop swerving into your lane....

i need a horn that says "GET DA FARK OUTTA DA WAY, BIATCH!!!"

spotted 4 seperate skylines on the way down the coast last night.... 3 of those were tryhards in R32 GTS-t's who wanted to race...

if you guys are on here, grow up....

why would i:

a) Risk losing my car for streetracing (Like one of you could possibly have done if you kept into it for a few more seconds, seeing as there was an undercover car on the side of the road up ahead)

b) Waste my petrol - i know i'm going to annihilate you, so why bother?

c) Risk damaging my car - air was cold, car was tuned in 30 degree heat, so would be running lean with the 20 degree air last night

d) Whats the point of streetracing anyway? Take it to a track, morons

oh, and there was also some chick in a riced up late model lancer who wanted a go :thumbsup:

I quite like the look of a (genuine) Evo.

Spotted a wine red R33 pulled over, bonnet up heading out of Ipswich, just after the Warrego Hwy merge at Riverview. Hope everything was ok - by the time we'd turned around and come past again help had already arrived so we didn't stop, too many cooks etc.

RIDE IT White 33 GTR tht was stolen and found spotted on Klumpp Rd at the lights...had a quick chat when the lights were red!

Also SMR33...spotted you driving past on riverside express way, bumpe to bumper traffic at 6pm.. I was on the phone at tht time and only saw you when u were ahead of me....:D

    • 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).
