I'd be lucky to be home from work by 7:30PM, let alone at a meet point.

I'll try and make it to Albert Park, depending on weather :geek:

Either way have a great meet, hopefully I'll meet some of you guys tomorrow night.

i'm in! will be at the east pre-meet in the all mighty Poosar :P

dunno bout the trip to AP, need to save fuel for sunday heathcote session :(

Soft. I'm going to Heathcote too, I'll force you to go to Albert Park with us :P

I've just come back from Albert Park to check out the carpark situation.

The meet point will be in the big carpark (its huge) which is pretty much immediately to your left when entering Aughtie Dr via Albert Rd.

I've got no idea what it'll be like on a Friday night, but there was a few cars there tonight, although still plenty of space.

Again, there is no cover at Albert Park so unfortunately if its raining it won't be ideal for a meet but we'll make the best of it anyway.

On a more serious note: This is not an official club event, hence non members being allowed to attend. However, one thing remains the same and that is that no idiotic driving will be tolerated by myself or Allen Paul. Anyone seen being stupid or driving like an idiot will have their club membership suspended or revoked (even if you just signed up on the night) and any non members may find themselves dealing directly with the police.

It may sound harsh, but 30-40 Skylines draw enough attention without people driving like idiots. It's cold, the roads are wet, and you will be driving in a large pack of cars. You are not impressing anyone by trying to be a hero so don't try.

Myself and Allen will remind everyone attending what is expected of them in terms of behavior prior to leaving the east and west meet points. At the end of the day its for your own benefit as well as everyone else attending. We will be driving through Albert Park, but the GP has come and gone, so lets all just enjoy a nice leisurely drive with some good company, and keep the rest of it for the track.

See you all tomorrow night for what is looking like a big one! :P

well said!

    • 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).
