Nope. Tyre run trip is in process of orgamisation.

Scouts can do a BBQ for the day but need to know what people wants to eat i.e. burgers, or snag in bread for costing per head.

The tyre shop can do a good discount but need to know what sizes and how many.

Also thinking of doing a bulk buy for a drift tyre ( not sure what that is exactly but assumed that you would need some cheapies to flog the carp out of ) and sizes for them ( assume 17" ? )

Car wash = out :D water restrictions.

what have i missed?

Not much yet

Was thinking the tyre shop at crow's nest is keen to do a bulk buy of tyres. He said he can do a really good discount on them. He also suggested a "drift tyre special" cheap, cheap and nasty apparently. So the plan might be get some numbers together orgaminise a day meet up and go from brisbane up through somerset to crows nest. Put tyres on car Scouts can do a bbq lunch for the day they just need to know what we wants for foods and they tell us how much per head. Then go back to brisbane. They tyre guy said that he can offer a discount for fitting or if you just want the tyre then he can offer a discount on that.

Thoughts ?

Only thing is the tyres would have to be paid in advance as well as the fuds.

Why Scouts? Why not just take an esky and use one of the mountain bbqs? It'd have to be cheaper, and then we could take whatever we want to cook.

Just an idea. Help out the community so to speak.

Oh ok, charity thing... now I follow.

Let me know when you've sorted it out I guess and we'll see what happens. Any update on dambusters while we're on the topic of drives?

Haven't heard anything as yet. He was off sick for a while.

if i get rego ect in time i will bring her out for a run to icecream

Sickness you will have yours back just as I get my license back :down:

The pig went for its RWC today and it failed spectacularly.

- Seat needs mod plate (Just took it out)

- Zip ties on front guard (Got some proper mechanical fixings in there now)

- Indicators don't self cancel (Need a stock steering wheel to fix this I think)

- Windscreen Chip

- Steering rack boots (Got new ones)

- Tie Rod end RHS (Ordered 2 new ones should be here tomorrow)

- Front brake discs need replacing and rear brake discs need machining (Putting my S13 stuff in)

- Engine oil leak (I'm pretty sure this was just oil spilt when I serviced it)

- Engine has a misfire (Spark plug No. 2 died so that's fixed)

- Window tint bubbled and shit (All of this is taken off now)

- Rear shocks need replacing. (S13 stuff)

So hopefully will be sorted by next weekend :S

Yeah its pretty good. I get it back on the 12th so like 6 days now lol.

Got one corner of the S13 suspension in tonight so only 3 more to go lol. The windscreen n shit will get done during the week.

Anyone got a standard 31 steering wheel I can borrow?

Will they pass it with S13 gear all round? I'm not sure. You'll probably get away with rears as they look pretty much the same, fronts are way different though.

RE steering wheel: Does your boss kit have two pins sticking out the back of it? If so, wrap them with layers of heatshrink or tape, making them thicker, untill they work to cancel the indicators. I find a couple of layers of heatshrink works best

Boss kit doesnt have the little pins so f**ked there. The S13 stuff should be ok. It bolts up to all the factory mounts n shit so hopefully won't have any problems. I don't want to buy new rotors for the 31 shit n then put the s13 gear in it's just a waste of money. We'll see how I go.

sorry mang i don't have a stocko wheel. your 32 one might fit though

What are you doing as far as tie rod ends go? With s13 gear the R31 tie rod end castle nut won't go on properly, i imagine that will fail RWC but you never know, depends how close they look I guess. GL :ninja:

Most shops are not specialists in 31's or 13's. SOooooooooooo Chances are you'll pass easily.

You boys hsould just get a mobile roady guy to do it for you. They care not for such discrepancies

Yeah that's my theory. I doubt this guy would notice a difference in the suspension. If it fails again I'll get a mobile guy out to do it lol.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      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
