my brother has a hoist but no gear box stand. were changing one on a S15 soon so we will see how that goes.

might be able to fit a bunch of them up.

Hoist is probably the most important thing to have......a couple of strong blokes would be able to lift the thing out......maybe

I've got an engine hoist I need to get rid of. I'll post an ad in the for sale section, but if anyone wants to buy a heavy duty dismantleable engine hoist for $200ono? This one is strong as. I'd be surprised if you can break it.

:D

i went by precision differential and gearbox's today and asked about clutches he guessed about $440 to fit a clutch for mine i asked about a group discount for say having 5 clutches fitted and said i would have to speak with the boss but im guessing there wouldn't be much discount and i reckon Shaun can fit them cheaper than that with no discount

im sure we will all wait, wont be hard to realise we are missing the orange 32, you might remember my mates 32, acqua/green plates used to be

''step up'' ?? apprently had a few pics with you in a magazine?

"Forecast for Friday evening

A light shower or two about the hills and southern suburbs clearing by sunset.

Cool and cloudy with moderate southwest to southerly winds easing."

Damn it i want my 31 to be drivable soon ! Would be pretty fun tonight :)

i be there with my new clutch lol 1500kg pressure plate with single button drift clutch and 10kg chromemoly flywheel hahaha

thing is an absolute beast, 3rd gear dry road clutch pops ftw hahaha.

but yeh steve i wouldnt attempt to lift ur gearbox by ur self, i struggled to move one while it was sitting on the ground.

sorry i cant go Kellie to this one, saving money up for my birthday cruise coming up soon.. ill post up info when i have organised it.. should be killa!! Im hoping to have it July the 5th or somewhere around there. so excited cant wait, everyone invited!

Was a good turnout at the meet point. Great to see some familiar faces and meet some new ones. I had to go back to work so I couldnt make the cruise, but I love the meet point, and even if I can't make a cruise I'll always try to at least get to the meet point

-D

***EDIT - I'd also like to give kudos to Kellie for organising this, printing the routes as well as putting the peons in their place. I like the meet spot. its good for people who work 9-5, and I think the police presence was handled very well. I think it's ideal for the po-po to stay informed. Means we get less tossers and conquently less defect checks. At least I hope so. As long as we dont have dipshits spoiling it for us (and Kellie in particular) then we'll have ourselves a really nice traditional run every fri nite that people can be bothered. ROCK ON!

    • 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).
