i'm just seriously considering selling the cefiro to buy a nissan F50 cima

but i mean

the cefiro is my legacy i have personally built that thing from the ground up

i was one of the first owners in aust to have one... so there's SO MUCH sentimental value attached to it

i want to IDEALLY keep both cars... but that's not realistic

Yeah same again. I've had mine for 4 years now... Almost to the day actually! I dont have another car tho, so I dont have to sacrafice one.

But yeah I'm going to spend some money on it again next year I think, get it super tidy. Do all the rubbers etc, prob some more suspension work, def a new set of front splits and an amp to suit. I really dont want to get rid of it. Its too much fun to drive. Hell I still get funny looks, people with just no idea what it is, its tops.

Yeah i know so i bought another one and got a laurel now also. It wasnt even advertised i just told one of my mates i would take 17g for it if someone wants to buy it n he brang someone round and he bought it.

Dont sell it though man i wish id kept mine a had it for 3 years n almost cried when i saw it driving off down the road

i adore my ceffy. id never swap it for anything nor sell it. when i move home to nz im taking the old girl with me. not cheap but got the hook ups :D then she can join her cousins. aka genuine ex taxis. lol

shed full of ex taxi A31's and C33's FTW!!!

yea i love my ceffy 2 lol. i duno if i could sell it but i want a new drift car eventually. but if i was 2 sell mine id sell it 4 around 15-17k. i just love driving it though, as dangerous daveo said i still get ppl asking me wat my car is lol.

At this stage (just spent 3 weeks dropping an RB26 + new Buddy Club Junior Spec dampers + full nolethane bush kit) I think that it would take some serious folding to persuade me to part with my Cefiro.

Bought in 2004 for $400 at auction, came with doilies on all the seats - lol. I believe that I'm only the 2nd owner (deceased estate auction) and despite doing my very best amateur-hour mechanic impression, car is awesome, cut-price M5 for a working slob. ;):(

    • 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).
