how hard would it be to get something like that done? theyre 2 piece, so i guess i just find a place that can do them and take the wheels apart?

i just think my car needs a couple of finishing touches, im getting a tint, and thought maybe the rims, but not totally sure yet.

might need to do some photoshopping.

yeh ive had my 2 piece wheels done, just pull them apart and give them the disk. budget for about $200ish for the 4. i recommend these guys for all ur powder coating needs:

Edwardstown Powdercoating

9 Lagunta Ave Edwardstown SA 5039

ph: (08) 8277 9500

they have a lot of experience with wheels and are a great bunch of blokes. i went there because they quoted the best price and didnt screw around with the quote either.

well was just under that i think, brand new via ems. no tyres. You pay more for the wmc which sucks.

and also 18x10 so more again being a bigger size.

*starts putting money in the piggy bank for a set of 18x10 XD9's in gun metal grey

your rims look foookin mint

while you were down there Stewy, did you see the blue 34 GTR Nur?

The guy's brother has one and parks it outside.

nah, he was talking about it at the time though, he hadnt brought it in yet though. only had the yellow FD at the time.

haha, if it gets defected it gets defect, big deal. ill just have to rejoin ns so i can post 40 threads about how i got defected and how much the cops suck.

:cool:

Noooo! NS ain't like that :D

Adrain, i took some close up pics, so you can see how much they hang out the guard, so i'll show ya tonight if your coming out to dinner.

the car isnt actually that bad.

if/when it gets defected all ill need is stock wheels, stock suspension, and stock exhaust. then just remove boost controller and that little shit.

guages etc are legal, so it wont be that much hard work.

yeh he'd go to the murray bridge one which i heard wasnt as bad, but still not fun.

i live in mclaren vale and i dont have to go to regency if i dont want too :)

i go to willunga inspection station. its the same guy there every time and when he sees me pull up he shakes his head and laughs but hes pretty cool!

    • 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).
