Its a shame i forgot my camera, looking forward to the pics now!

I think that Ferrari turned everyones head.

yeh was a great cruise, despite the most unfortunate incident on the way back. Props to Daniel for organising another good cruise, with a good turn out. Everyone had a chance to enjoy themselves and have a good run. I'll have a look on my phone for some pix. :teehee:

good cruise despite the obvious

but i do think that some of those colin mcraes out there need to keep a decent distance

riding up someones ass dosent make you a better driver and it dosent impress anyone

in fact

i think some ppl need to pay more attention to public safety and allow people to enjoy the drive

We had a good day. Sorry we didn't come down to the harbour but we decided to have lunch at the pub instead.

I had a great drive in the 997T between Anglsea and Apollo Bay (thanks James) and I must say its a very impressive car. Really nice to drive both hard and cruisey. But probably not quite as awe inspiring as the GT3 is even though it's faster (although it's no where near as as fast as my car :O ) Still we had a great run with traffic so it was a lot of fun.

But enough of Parka's. There were some nice Skylines there today which was good to see.

Yep - nice to meet you all.

Sorry we didn't hang about at the meet points, just wanted to get on the road and have a drive!

That run back through the hills really makes the drive. Turbo is just so punchy mid-range - absolutely effortless power, but the big blue monster is just a rocket!

Looks so tough on the road - Snows, glad to see it running well and thanks heaps for the drive :O

yeh the back way is awesome, I got a lil hesitant though as it started spitting for a bit when we were going through and my tires are rubbish. I could imagine both cars you two had would have made for an amazing drive. :O mmm blue monster...

dammit having trouble uploading the images. re the incident, its prolly better to let Daniel explain if he so wishes

tailgating an undercover cop b4 realising he was undercover was an interesting experience. he didnt manage to get anyone though.

You guys went home via Forrest/Birragurra again?

The Porka/GTR would have both loved that :rofl:

i can agree with that. its nice to get out there and have a fast run through the twists but there is no point gettin up behind someone pushing them to the point that they endanger themselves and others on the road. not everyones cars are set up as well as other too! once again great day had my.... most lol. soz, forgot to blank out plates in the few pics i put up too!

    • 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).
