A few mates are putting together a private hire at the Wakefield Park circuit (Goulburn NSW) for Wednesday November 19.

The track has been booked and everyone is welcome, regardless of experience or vehicle you bring along. Anyone who has thought about trying circuit should consider this; there will be a bunch of people on-hand to show newbies the ropes. Wakefield Park is especially good for newbies as there are no walls (save the front straight) and LOTS off safe runoff areas.

The cost will be between $160 and $220 for the day (depends on numbers) - this is a non-profit day, all costs are known and are just split equally amongst participants (costs can be seen on Wakefield Park Website). You will also need a Wakefield Park license which you can get on the day ($50 for 12 months) or CAMS L2S license.The track will be open all day, with guaranteed more track time than you could possibly use.

We have about 5 places left so please PM me if you are interested or have questions!

Be quick as we are capping the numbers for maximum uncongested track time.

And oh yeah - there is NO SPEED LIMIT!

What numbers are you aiming for, max?

A weekday track day at $220 a head should be about 20 people off the top of my head. If that's the case, then this day is definitely going to guarantee plenty of track time as you can narrow the field down to 2 sessions.

Even with a 25 headcount (which is the maximum number of people you can have without incurring the extra cost of having an ambulance on standby, and increasing costs) that's still plenty of track time for your money.

I'd love to come, but unfortunately I'm booked around that time.

      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).
