there is still something about the old school muscle cars that you just cant deny...

Nothing like a rickity old heavy muscle car ( Like one of my dream cars - 67 Chevy Impala) that is as lumpy as shit, scaring kids with the sheer sound as it rolls past.

Although, as i have previously stated, it must be on par with an RB at 7000rpm.. :thumbsup:

orange r33 booting it extremely hard in the city on the weekend, think it was near mile end. on a holiday weekend no less and looked like a car full of people in it. not a good example for SAU ?

silver stag with red stripe tires, on beach road

black stag at supercheap, hey mate did you get new front guards ? :action-smiley-069:

black r33 with chrome wheels on states rd

black r33 4 dr same spot

black supra parked on salsbury highway, salsbury way, suprised it was there still the next day in one piece, too nice for roadside parking

lots of old cars out cruising

a pair of GTT on south rd heading towards salsbury on the weekend.

and one parked on the roadside /sidewalk sunday am. on south rd.

yeah I agree....I occasionally join the Zipple cruises on the bike where you see approx 300 of these old school muscle cars in one place :worship:

I am still trying to convince my cousin instead of blowing his money on some new Mercs or Beemers that he should invest in one of these classics....

I almost got him convinced of an original RT Charger.... absolutely awesome machine. :worship:

White 31 with white rims out the front of Lavericks this arvo...

Lavericks in Olympic Dam? If so that was probably a friend of mine he has 3 or 4 31's and about half of the VL commodore production run. I grew up in roxby downs. Bad place :nuke:

Back to the topic at hand anyway, I spotted a very smooth looking black V35 wasn't sure if it was andrew though, a couple of 33 GTR's one maroon with gold badging, a nice touch.

Also spotted at least 50 cars travelling without their headlights on during my travel home from work. A mojority of them being silver which at dusk tend to look the same colour as the sky. Not a wise move in my opinion but hey, maybe i'm the only person who thinks its plain dangerous.

R35 yesterday on main north rd. Still awestruck whenever I see one gracing australian roads :wub:

Also spotted a 33 gtst with one dull taillight yesterday on my daily commute. Alerted the bloke in case he wasn't aware, had a quick chat at the lights about our cars and went about or days. :action-smiley-069: Good to gain a report with people you commonly see on the road

Got it in one champ... I dont have my GTR up here by my mate (Dumpe on SAU) has his 34 GTR here. We often see this white one parading through the streets, keeping it in 2nd gear, launching and revving its tits out down the main street... Waiting for it to go boom one day.. There is a couple of Skylines up here though

Cheers

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
