Never Thought We Could Forget Baby Godzilla, Eh?


Recommended Posts

See i don't think that speed kills. It's more of a advertising campaign aimed at the general populous. Most Muppet's can't handle a car, let alone a car at speed. There are a few out there that can control speed... but it's to hard to tell who!

So the cops/government just save themselves the time and money..... and just scare the entire population into worrying about speed. Easy :3some:

Also old people driving cars should have a "O" plate displayed!!! I give it 2-5 years, before scary old dudes in beige Camry's get "O" plates to protect the public.

I don't know which to be more scared of.... a Beige Camry with "O" plates or a "P" plater in a Fully sick VL :3some: (either way they should both be banned!)

I agree with the "O" plate idea... ...I work with quite a few people that still have their licenses that don't drive often enough to know if they are being a risk or not... ...The sad thing is I can't do anything about it due to privacy laws... ...I know one guy clearly has dementia (undiagnosed ATM but I work with enough people to know) and his wife still lets him go out for a drive because she just isn't strong enough physically and mentally to put up with his complaining if she doesn't let him go... ...If I drove a shit box like him I'd wait around the corner and then let him drive into me just to get him off the road...

I think license renewal should also come with driver testing if you've lost any demerits during the last period... ...Or at least Sight / Hearing / Reaction tests and a few random road rules just to make sure everyone still keeps up to date with the rules...

Another thing is... ...extend the period a vehicle can be registered for but make a Road Worthy Test part of the process for renewal... ...I'm sick of seeing shit boxes with faded tail lights blowing smoke into my A/C... ...And I get pulled over because a cop sees me back out of a park spot with only one reversing light... ...I'd just backed out of SuperCheap and was heading home to INSTALL IT!!!...

There are three types of drives I try and stay clear of... ...Those with glasses... ...Those with dints and scratches... ...and those with hats...

And if I happen to get a trifecta... ...I just pull over and turn the engine off...

And ask god why...

This guy did a driver training day with me a couple of years ago, we did a piece for the Herald Sun newspaper.

To be honest he wasn't that flash at driving, didn't really impress me very much, and like some club racers he thought he was a whole lot better than he actually was.

He wasn't real good at doing emergency stops in the wet at 65kmh, so he certainly wouldn't be very good at 170 !

    • 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).
