After many years of successful years of hardcore drinking and weiner eating at Shutzenfest, may I extend an invitation for another SAU social get together - without cars of course.

As usual I will be there bang on 11:30am Sat 12th January to hold a big table/chairs, and need some other lads to help me hold the fort and setup a top position from which we can come and go all afternoon/evening.

Info:

Schutzenfest 2008

Enjoy the Oompah music, dancing, food – and of course, the beer – at Adelaide's annual German festival, Schutzenfest.

You can enter the Strong Arm Beer Stein Lifting competitions, or take a Traditional Bavarian Slap Dance lesson!

There's children's entertainment, stalls serving traditional German food and drinks, cultural heritage displays and more. It's a fabulous event enjoyed by more than 20,000 people every year.

Other attractions include Air Rifle Shooting Range with prizes for King, Queen and Open winners, and of course the large range of thirst quenching German beers. The 2008 Schutzenfest opens at 4pm on Friday 11 January 2008 and 12pm on Saturday 12 January 2008. Gates close at midnight both days.

Be THERE or be SQUARE

If you have never been before, then you don't know what you are missing. It is a tops day out, with all varieties of grog from (very alcoholic) apple cider, to German wheat (and other) beers, other imported beers like Hoegarten and Asahi, and of course pre-mix bourbons and the like. Then add all varieties of awesome food - including authentic German fare like Sauerkraut, Leserkase, kranskys, etc. Then add the fact that is is normally 35 degrees and there are literally THOUSANDS of half naked drunk chicks (and if it is hot enough they put up a spray tent - awesome entertainment to sit at the end of).

Wives, girlfriends and others welcome - the more the merrier!

Any volunteers to come early and help me hold some big tables/lots of chairs and have a BIG day out? :laugh:;): :)

    • 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).
