We also have a friendly reminder from Mallala Cop,

"The G1 Drift Event listed for Mallala on the 3rd August will again have a strong traffic Police presence and this meeting would not be ideal for those with licence, registration or vehicle defect (already defected) issues. I hope that a prior warning will be a way of ensuring all have a great weekend and so patrons can simply enjoy some Great Drifting and not be bothered with issues associated with these offences."

My car is almost ready, new coilovers in, goes in tuesday for bigger wastegate spring and another tune and then all set to go.

:wave: heavy cop presence

so?

thats what we need, keep morons from trying to copy what happens on the track. keep it on the track and there will be no hassles.

i might try and make it out to this one.

even if u dont do anything wrong u will be picked on.

I had mates going to DA and was just normally driving along and pulled in and defected.

Its just a event where if u have a defectable car you have to be prepared to be defected or take your parents car.

personally i think if anyone is stupid enough to still take their import to mallala they deserve to get defected.

how many warnings do people need before they learn?

are you a cop or sumthin buddy??? why should i live in fear of driving my stock import out to watch some motorsport????

if these arsehole police did the right thing and pulled over the kids doing fully sick skids out the carpark or in a car with rust falling out of the cabin floor then i wouldnt think twice about driving out there....

you have a stock car? what are you whinging about then?

its stock, but its an import.........odds are my car is 100x safer than a holden of the same year (89) yet im 100x more likely to be pulled over after leaving mallala.....

im not dumb, ive been going out there since i was a kid and seen the cops get worse and worse every year, im all for the dickheads gettin pulled over and defeted but those cops just get on there power trip and ping anyone with a japanese car

live and learn, thats life.

can this thread not turn into another debate about mallala and cops, worried about defects, find another way of getting there. We took flicks old 32 to almost every drift event while she owned it, never had a problem. Its pot luck as to who gets picked on, some get lucky, some dont.

+1

I'll be there to spectate.

Will be there showing some love to the Bonez.......

Once again use your brain peoples, if you WANT/HAVE to drive your import out there, the cops aren't gonna be there all night after it finishes, so leave later after they pack up, or get there early and miss any defect station if there is gonna be one!!

Not trying to invent the wheel here.......

smh you all look past the point, why should we live in fear???? your all under the thumb of the state police force, they say jump, you say how high

Well mate there is nothing YOU or I can do about it, besides im not living in fear nor am i under anyones thumb, so i say deal with it, do what you have to to get around it!!

Lol, you speak of them like a needy girlfriend that you can just dump and move on. For those of us that drive defectable cars, its the risk we take. You know even stock cars can be defected? Worn and cracked seals, bald tyres, structural damage, damaged suspension etc.

    • 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).
