I was fine when I was waiting for parts and waiting for them to be installed. It's knowing that it's all back together and all working and driving just fine (just not as efficiently as it could) that is killing me.

Well fret no more. They now have it. Not sure that it will be done today but it's turtle-heading

You just made my day Dan the man!

*Does a happy little dance*

Reckon I'd be fine to swing down tomorrow arvo to pick her up?

It's got a new Nistune ECU in it.

Good choice :thumbsup:

Nice power from a lightly modded 25 I must say :) I'm going to be happy if I get around 180-200rwkw.

Yeah really happy. People have got around 250rwkw @ 18PSI out of the same turbo, but probably have a less restrictive intake. Also i believe EFI's dyno reads a little on the low side. So I'm stoked.

So, seeing as it's driving so great, you going to come out for a drive to Jacks?

So I can hard park it? Negative. I've got to go round to Dave's to pick up a shroom for Scott, and help (read: supervise) Dan getting Dave's clutch working.

It does read a bit lower than most, at the majority of places around you would make 10 to 15rwkw more i reckon.

Don't think Dan can make it now. It's not like I need to drive the car to work tomorrow or anything :whistling:

Which would put it pretty much bang on that 250 mark :).

Roger. I'll swing round anyway and grab 'shroom.

Noel if you go to Jacks let me know, It will give me a good reason to clean my car

yup, no work again tomozz so Fat Alvin will be rollin in...Be hatin

Village square it's called. Enter carpark beside JB-HIFI.

I laughed fairly hard at the idiot who ripped the bottom out of his super low S13 about a month back. He tried to cone in over the big speed bump at the other side :P

hey does anyone have an r32 actuator (10psi) and if they want to give or sell (but mostly give) can they please bring it to baskins tomorrow? or a boost controller/ tap for the right price :rofl:

    • 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).
