The missus is interested in anouther Val for cruising (i wanted a 32gtr, she said no, lol) and im spending more on mine, so sadly i must decline.

Ive now put the original seat back in, and the Daytona OBX seat and rails are for sale seperatly :down:

Got another thread somewhere.....

Hi Chris, since you sold the seat separately, I just wondering if you want to sell your Bilstein and whiteline suspension separately??? I have the stock r33 gts-t suspension sitting in my garage, I can swap with ur bilsteins plus cash, I also have a set of tein coilovers, I can swap that too, if you r interested, plz let me know. Good luck with the sale. Cheers

Richard

G'day Richard,

Thanks for the post mate, I'd rather keep the bilstien shocks and whiteline springs in there, as a few reasons, I dont have the time right now with work and other comittments to put the stock suspension in, and the stock suspension would be a bit old for it now. I think one of the points of the car as a selling point, is the suspension itself!

Its already set up fr a twisty road, or the track!

thanks for the offer anyway mate,

cheers,

Chris

Mate if this was 2 months ago, i would have snapped it up, but already purchased an R33, bit annoyed yours has more mods :D

good luck

Spewing!!! Although I did post it up 2 months ago, just not at this price!! Ah well, all good cam!! Know anyone who wants it?? LOL

Tell me bout it Ryan!

I dont know people buy 9-10k shitters and mod them when they can have this for 13.8! with nothing to spend!!

So I was thinking...

sure, people can buy a cheap, fair condition R33 for say 9-10k with basic mods, such as exhaust and FMIC and maybe springs or shocks.

you might drive it for a while, think its ok, but then you'll get the urge to do the ECU, more boost, need a better ride - suspension. Also you may need to fix some panels.

you boost it up and stock turbo cries enough - fork out more money for a better turbo - your 9-10k faily crappy R33 has turned into a 15k minimum car, which would still need some TLC

Mine on the other hand, you get an R33 which is in very very good condition, has nothing to spend on suspension, nothing to spend on the body, nothing to spend on power, the only thing someone may want to spend money is the stereo....but...thats a different street....

The car has always been serviced by a top sydney workshop, no expence spared.

So for 13.6k - you are getting a, absolute bargain!!!!!

The car looks near standard from outside, which doesnt attract unwanted attention.

It has the power to run 12's at WSID and put down some good lap times if you decide to track it.

So, why do people buy these 9k shitters in the first place?

I dont get it?

Anyway - 13.6k ONO :laugh:

    • 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).
