awww congratulations Brad. There is no love stronger than a parents love of their child. I'm out too now... unless someone has a spare master cylinder floating around.
Congrats Brad, and a good enough reason not to be there lol

Thanks guys!

My other baby will have to stay asleep in the garage for a bit longer :-)

Have fun and take lots of photos for me!

Was a great day! Was awesome to see the r35 in the flesh. Unfortuantly i couldn't get my car there, as mine was the white r33 that got stolen 4 weeks back. I've got it back now. Hopefully will have it back on the road soon =).

I think we made history today, a SAU ACT event that more people turned up than what said they would.........AMAZING

Seriously though, Great turnout and thankyou to everyone for displaying/chatting/tenting and chilling with us today. I really enjoyed the day and I want to see that sort of enthusiasm for all the events :blink: ........i.e the motorkhana next Sunday (29th) at Sutton rd driver training centre. Come check out and support ZCR, Stinkypoo, Driftmajik and myself!!!!

Finally I have to thank Bob, for bringing out the 12 yr old kid grin in me all day :)

A huge thanks to everyone that turned up. The row of 32 and 33 GTRs looked great, the biggest lineup of GTRs that I've ever seen the Canberra. It was great the R31 club added to the display for an extra couple of generations. A great turn out by the GTS/Ts as well. The lines were so long Bec could not get a photo that did them all justice.

The day was perfectly balanced by the trio of silver GTRs which half the attendees drooled over. It would have been better to have the silver R32 GTR there, but we just didn't have room in the end.

I'd like to pass on my special thanks to Julian for his immaculate and different R32 that attracted a lot of attention, Jon in the other blue GTR first time attendee and Bob with the 34 and 35 GTRs.

It was great to see Donnon take a lead on the day and organise the display, despite having to move the cars several times and take down tent poles etc they ended up picture perfect.

Thanks to Mic for bringing the (Federal tyres) tent, the shade is essential and really is the focal point of the day and makes it a lot more enjoyable.

Due to the space limitations etc some have suggested organising the club to be located where the SDMA club is located next year. (if we have a next year) All we need to do is discuss with the organising club.

Yeh good work guys, shame us Zs were over in QBN there, so if it is on at Old Parly next year, should be near by.

There is talk of next year being at EPIC. I don't know if this means entry fees and less visitors. You would think that the government could just give an exemption to a massive charity event like this, but hey common sense has no place in Parliamentary square.

Oh and OMG, there is a Mrs Donnan! :/

      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).

      EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
