Show N Shine And Collie Drift Weekend!


Recommended Posts

Bunbury for the Max youth festival and then Collie drift comp over the 5th and 6th of

April.

The Max youth festival have invited Silvia W.A. to attend their event as a guest display in their show and shine event. The event will combine a unique mixture of Music, Art and Xtreme sports in an entertaining display celebrating Bunbury’s youth culture and encouraging participation in community activities.

Sunday we will be heading off from Bunbury just up the road to the Collie motorplex for the first Collie drift comp of 2008.

Im in the process of talking to Josh from silviaWA, this cruise for now is only silviaWA members but im trying to organise a joint cruise type deal here, silWA has a section lined up for show and shine and can possibly get us a spot next to them... as its a little while away i thought id just throw it up and see how many i can get interested. so if anyone is keen please let me know as im trying to give them a rough idea on how many will come!!

cheers guys!

P.S. did i mention i am a detailer now... ill give a special deal on sauwa members!! pm me for details...lol... get it, details... omg how random, ima shut up now!

Hey Dudes,

I'm the social events co-ord for Silwa and am organizing the cruise down and also display for Silwa. If you need any extra info on the event or even collie drift happy time @ collie let me know!

Our thread for organization of the event can be found here http://www.silviawa.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=34532 this has all the info on our accom etc etc!

Cheers

Just thought that I'd let y'all know that the same weekend the Forrest Rally is on at Busselton, Collie and Nanup.

4th, 5th and 6th April.

Accomodation might be hard to get (around Busso anyway).

SAUWA as a club wont be participating this year. It has been discussed but timing etc is against us to organise it.

We would certainly be happy to look at it next year if we can get some more info with a bit more notice.

forget it... if any of you guys wanna head up for the drifting at collie, feel free, $100 entry fee... feel free to let me know as i am heading up there on the sunday... early!!

I'm pretty sure the Collie guys have another event on the Saturday (not drifting). With the collie comps there very relaxed and you just get out there and go drifting all morning pretty much like and practice day.

Their comps consist of stopping the drifting in late arvo and just having the top 10 cars doing some extra laps to see who they think is the best driver.

So if you want to get some drift prac in, come down and "enter" :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).
