I posted this in our qld section, What are the chances of all states doing something similar on the same day. A coordinated multi state effort should see some good results for the poor buggas.

In light of the horror unfolding in victoria as I type I am proposing cruise to raise funds to help the poor buggas left behind to deal with the fallout.

The western whale watchers cruise will take place on sunday the 22nd of feb.

Staging point will be at woolly's/macca's carpark at yamanto, departure time will be 8.30 sharp.

Cruise duration will be advertised when I get some feed back as to how long you guys wish to drive for.

There will be a food vendor at the cruise destination and i will be hitting him up for a dontation of some of his profit garnered by our presence.

Cruise donation of 10 dollars per car will be the price and if any members have contacts a couple of worthwhile raffle prizes wouldnt go astray. any further donations will be gratefull accepted.

Funds will go to the red cross bushfire appeal.

G'day all. I know some, if not most, will remember the Tsunami cruise in '04, put together by Valvebounce. Well, one half of that was/is me, and I'm just looking into logistics etc of doing the same. These thing do take time to sort, and the effect of what has happened, and is still happening, in Vic', will be with all of us for a lot longer yet unfortunately.

I know everyone means well by getting a cruise/donation happening pronto, but if we all think it out, we'll all have much more positive impact long term.

Can anyone that has contacts in any other car club looking at doing something please PM me so I can get my details passed on?

It looks like any efforts to get my GT-R alive again will be put on hold yet again. At least this time it's a worthy cause!

Cheers, Jayce.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
