Wakefield Park Track Day 16/9/03- all welcome (organised by OZ GTI-R Owners Club)


Recommended Posts

Everyone attending the Trackday is having a meetup to go over a few things.

You dont *have* to come or anything. But it would be good if you could...

Sunday the 31st of AUG at gay I mean BRAY'S BAY RESERVE we will meet and we can sort out all unpaid deposits I think that 2pm is a good time to meet as well. That means no one can use going out late as an excuse for not showing.

Also another topic will be travelling down there. As I understand that some want to go on Sunday night and others early Tuesday morning.

Now the Deposit amount is still $50 the other owning money will be payable on the day.

What I would like is EVERYONE that is attending the day to please show up even if your deposit has been paid. It will help me out alot as I will also be able to have a final confirm numbers.

See you all there

Sam

im there!! organised through another forum, but im there 100%!

also, my cousin is bringing down his TVR chimarea (anyone familiar with Gran Turismo will kno about TVR's)... british hand built road car (designed for the track..). RWD wit over 200kw, 1000kgs, tiny wheelbase and coilovers stock - its a little beast!!!

should be an awesome day - i cant wait!!!

I bags joy rides in the TVR all day:D

When in the UK the first thing i did when i got off the plane was grab an Auto Trader, then try rental places to see if i could hire a TVR for a day. (Ive got issues...:stupid: )

I was after a Cerbera, cant go past the 8s m8:D

Yeah its the front strut brace michael. the only problem is that just jap called me the other day and said that the manager had already sold that one when he wasn't there so I now can't have it :( but he is sending me one of the $89 ones with a free nismo sticker :) does the same thing I guess

I actually lived in England for 8 years.

So i know the TVR well.

You can actually pick up a chimera quite cheap over there these days... I've pondered the thought. lol :D

lol - Mate the Nismo sticker will make it go faster!!!! :)

Hey Mark/Slo 200,

Sorry for my lakc of reply (slo) and call (Mark).

I was out till late Friday night, woke up Sat felling like crap. Felt worse as the day went on, went to the doctor, the did test, got worse on Sunday, went back monday, results showed a bad staph infection :) So I've been at home, in bed sick these last 5 days.

I'll be on top of things from tomorrow, and will sort you guys out :)

    • 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).
