3 years ago I got the following from garys (care of Rod)

1 x Pioneer VNET 450 AMP

1 x Pioneer VNET 2100 AMP

2 x Clarion 10" Freeairs (boot)

2 x Pioneer 6" Door Splits (Front)

1 x Custom Sub box with 2 x Port Holes (HUGE) going to the parcel shelf.

All installed and nicely configured (I had my own head unit)

$1100

Nice deal

i know gray personaly and he is not that cheap on setroes, but he only sell's top quilty products unlike your Strathfield and jb hifi stores. if you are able to spend a little extra then go garys car audio for top quilty products that will sound good.

paulr33 u got a great deal for 3 years ago.

to save yourself more money do the installation your self i saved $2000 on installation on my car buy doing it my self.

And plz ppl dont buy sony, sony is only good for wogs and asians who think they know what they are talking about in car audio. and for wankers that are all looks.

the best advice i can give is research and dont buy anything on impulse, stay clear ok 6X9 if you are putting subs in, and splits will always give you clear music over any 2way 3 way speaker..

but thats my 2 dollars worth of info.

Yeah I already got planned what i want, (in the first post of the thread) now im just looking for the best place to buy it... Any ideas SXY R33?? I looked up Garys car radio in the Melways and its far away, will probably call for a quote to avoid disappointment if i drive all that way.

Has any one dealth with central car radio on nepean highway, there the only other place i know of that stocks boston acoustics..

ok i got my whole system through jb hifi i knew what i wannted so i took no shit from the sales person "Who have no idea about electronics". plus my mate at that time worked at nudwading jb hifi i got it for $1300 worth about 3g.

just go out and get heaps of quotes from the car audio stuff you want (dont change what u are getting from store to store) stick with the products you are after and you will save 100s of dollars.

ring starathfield, jb hifi, grays, patterson sound, eg. once you have found the lowest phone quote, go into the store and talk them down even more.

Hint: go in on a weekend of late friday night "thats when the causals are working" they are easy to talk down. "+spin some techniqual shit to them they shit themsellves"

Aslo with boston acoustics stuff go to http://www.caraudioaustralia.com/ they should be able to tell where they are stocked!

good luck with the buy

    • 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).
