OK, I guess I have to come along, mmmgtir, shoot me your details & I'll sort the deposit

I'll head down on Tue morning too.

As far as the meet goes, 7.30 at the Pheasants Nest Mobil will give us plenty of time to get there before 9am (Pheasants Nest is about 1hr from CBD, so its a fair way down).

Just confirm the time when you are sure.

hey Mark,

They decided to leave from that Pheasants nest at 6:30am.

hey Mark, Whats the chance you could pick up BigBogan Dave from Penrith on your way over mate?

I really dont wanna have to drive an hour from my house to penrith, then all the way back???

Let me know mate.

Now which skyline guys are coming?

I need someone to come out on a couple of laps in my car and show me how to drift. last time I had a few tries and worked to some degree, got sideways, but then I lost it 3 times on the big corner before the pits. so hopefully someone will be able to guide me.

hey Mark, what about picking Dave up?

Can you do that? If not its cool.

But anyway, that last corner just hit 2nd gear, then full throttle and I'm sure You'll have some oversteer dude. :)

Good man Duncan. :)

So, that leaves one spot. Any of you guys have friends you want to ask?

Just 5 more sleeps ;)

just 5 more sleeps and im looking shaky.. the car may not be right to take on the track. Will be doing my best to make it... will keep you posted.

If i can bum a lift off someone i would still like to come.

Its not one thing...thats the problem.

i need to get some shielding going for the turbo so not to melt half the wiring in my engine bay, need to tidy up some plumbing, new tyres.

On top of that it looks like im going to have to pay a place to wire up my injectors as i cant find a wiring diagram to help me wire up the resistor pack for the GTR injectors i have. Then i have to check the engine isnt leaning out.

It might be 5 more sleeps but i will have to stay busy, its probably easier to throw the stock turbo/manifold back on for the day:(

see how you go roy. im very close to coming down. i have a day in leiu owing to me and i have to take it soon before they forget about it...i know how my car goes around wakefield already so thats why im a little hesitant, if i had my damn camber kit in, id be in. i'll see how it goes...

Franks, there's a place left with your name on it :uh-huh:

You'd make me a happy man to have all my places filled.

Let me know mate.

Roy, hope you are able to get it sorted in time.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
