Round and around, and maybe into a tree? ;)

Troy: That would be perfect mate. There's a mob in the UK who make a similar thing. 3.2's and 964's dressed up as '73 RS'. Awesome stuff!

This is shit hot too: http://my105.com/classified.asp?id=10369

and this looks like a decent thing too, if SR20's are your bag :ermm: : http://my105.com/classified.asp?id=9375

I have such a love/hate relationship with my105...

i like the S14. would be wicked fun. personally probably would want to knock $7K or so off the ask (assuming it can't ever be registered). lots of nice gear on it though.

I try not to, but it keeps pulling me back in...

The GT2 replica wasn't a GT3 cup challenge car as far as I'm aware, but could well have been. Looked identical to this:

This one? Shame about the 915 box. I've killed more then I care to remeber.

It’s track only. It’s a JMS car. The guy is a poll smoker.

Ahh yes, I recall coming around a right hander to find that one on it's lid after it punted an earth bank hard! Mt Black stage I think it was, day 5, Targa 2006 from memory? Matt used to run a really nice 993 Turbo until it was stolen ;).... not much luck the boy....

Funny you post that. Rowdy down here in Vic had a white R32 GTR shell that was possibly able to be registered, body was in good nic and only wanted $3,500 for it. I contacted the crashed white R33 guy as i was thinking for less then 20k i woudl have had a pretty decent basis for a reliable track R32....but then reality kicked in ;)

That S14 is real nice. If i could find a similar white car with nice mods and rego for sub 20k i woudl seriously consider it. I prefer S14s over S15s funnily enough

That's the one!

I've heard bad things about the 915 or g50, but I can't remember which one ;) By what you're saying I'm assuming it's the 915 that's clunky and weak.

i wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller. I wish I had a girl who looked good I would call her....

I would cut all of you for that RSR ;)

Troy: See, sub 20k for a real nice S14 like that is what makes me want to sell my car in a million iddy biddy pieces and make double what I could sell it for, and sell it all quite quickly (bar maybe the engine which may take a while). It's hard losing so much cash on the build in the first place, but buying someone elses race car for cheap cheap makes it an easier proposition :ermm:

The G50 is the ducks nuts if you can get a hold of one if you’re an older 911 owner.

G50 came in around the mid – late 1980’s in the turbo and non-turbo cars. Start at around $4/5k and upwards of $8k/$9k for a rebuilt one from a workshop. Need to horse around with cutting torsion bars in the early shells to make them fit though.

The 915 is the work of the devil.

It’s just a nicer box and physically much larger then a 915. Still pretty rank when you’ve come from a more modern gearbox.

My biggest problem was coming from a Trust gear set where I could “smash” it into gear as quick and as hard as I liked, to learning to drive essentially and older more primitive car.

I have no idea if “slow synchros” is a technically correct term, but the way all the old 911 blokes explained it to me was “slow synchros” = “slow gear changes”, get it right and you’ll be much quicker.

And remember the year Matt had the navigator that had them excluded from the event cause the nav got pissed the night of Prologue, fell down the stairs at Country Club breaking a couple of ribs and blew .12 at 9am the next day!!

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      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.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      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

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      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).
