Bozmeister, here is the website of that awesome trailer we saw: http://www.tiltatrailer.com.au/index.htm

No prices on there though...

They were at this years caravan and camping show. Very good trailer rated up to 4 tonne or something like that and it was only about $3k-$3.5k and could get anything that was higher than 25mm at the front bar onto it

The build plate on the one we saw said it was 500kg with a max weight of 2300kg... leading me to believe it could take 1.8T.

According to their website though they can take 2T.

Either way, if that price you quote is right, hell keen.

Andy i'll take you up on a nano if you want rid of one, probably can't get it with the 243 but i'll hit it easy with the 22

Job interview today makes me happy in my pants. Wish people would speed things up when hiring, I've had a few interviews now and they are all in decision making mode and I get to sit around twiddling my thumbs waiting for a response.

Just finished my first interview for the day. Got to love when they finish the interview with "So can you start tomorrow night?"

Hmm i wonder if they liked you lol

Going to go in and see what it's like to work there. Different role to what I've done in the past, more hands on and less administration. I think I'd like that however. Pay isn't quite as good as what I was on at the Fox but work environment will more than make up for it.

I'll let you all know where if I end up with the job :)

Now to prepare for my next interview in 45 minutes.

Nothing is set in stone yet. Got a shift running the place tomorrow night and final decision will be made by both parties next week (they may like me, I may not like them or possibly vice versa.)

It's at Archive in West End. Got interviews with the Pig N Whistle at riverside and the Melbourbe Hotel as well.

Freaking amateur hour at the Pig. Who the hell shows up late to an interview that they are running? I've had people I'm interviewing be late but I'm always ready to go minimum 15 minutes before the interview. Bad start, if they are this disorganized when interviewing a new manager how bad is the rest of it?

Top stuff Boz!

+1 Great work

Would you really want that in that kitchen? I hear that there's like knives and shit in there.

    • 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).
