Inner West Crew Whoretown (toowong/st Lucia/kenmore/indooroopilly And Sometimes Sunnybank?)


Recommended Posts

So I just read back through the thread for curiosity's sake. I've been here since page 102, and met most of you fools on the 23rd of July last year. Easy to remember - it's my mother's birthday.

mmmm i have a turbo on hold for my rb25....

Also spotted john's resume in my bosses email inbox this afternoon. Hope for a call up soon

What kind of guitar do you have? Or are you getting?

We should jam :(

Currently have an Ibanez SZ320 tuned to drop C or drop B, and a shitty gibson 175 hollow copy that plays like a dream. Used to rock a Mesa single rectifier + current era marshall 1960 angled cab, but sold that when I bought the skyline... been kicking myself ever since :)

So now I've got an ashton solid state piece of shit 100w combo which does the job for practicing... but definately looking at getting a marshall/mesa/randall 50w tube head as soon as I can afford.

Man.... I really wanna rock a 7 string again. Used to have one... for BONE CRUSHING HARDCORE DOWNTUNING GOODNESS RAWWWWWRRRRRR

I know the kicking onesself feeling. I sold my VOX amp and Chris Cheney Gretsch to fund my Skyline. Would much rather have kept them and not had the car :(

The gibson copy sounds sexy btw :(

Oh it is... plays nicely and that's the reason I bought it from cash convertors... as soon as I picked it up I knew!

Need to swap the pickups out though, it sounds like ass when plugged in hahaha. Nah it's not TOO bad, I've got my preset banks set up in my boss gt so I use a couple of banks for the SZ, and a couple of banks for the 175 with different EQ settings blah blah blah.

f**king mustangs. I mean skylines.

    • 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).
