Re: Bob Jane - Valley - Rant

Bunch of ignorant f**ks. I work in New Farm so thought, why not I'll pop down and see what they can do. Walk in asking about semis, clown can't get them, rings around and quotes way above everyone else (fair enough, guess he thought he could pick up a few bucks).. THEN!! Try's to tell me you cannot fit any 225 tire on 10.5+ inches, I kindly show him my car out the front with 10.5+ with 225's..

Tried to up sell some all rounder POS tire as a sports tire for $480each, with the argument of "some guy with a commodore swears by them". Told me I'll have to buy tubes off him so he can "expand" the tire on the rim and all sorts of voodoo magic tricks.

Apparently he used to "tek-screw" drag slicks onto his "drag cars" and he is old school and knows a thing or two.

f**k you Bob Jane Fortitude Valley and to the guy who has the POS white S13 that works there your car is shit

Where is the Bob jane in the valley?

If your talking tyre shop dickheads all i can think of is beaurepaires on commercial road. We don't use them cause they are stains, and that white S13 there was a pink s13.

You want a good tyre shop, Jax Quickfit on abbotsford road, tell them dan at alfa sent you, they will get you pretty much any tyre you want/need. they stretched some 215's onto 9" rims for martin, they also don't mind about illegal modifications.

Oh they are also the main tyre shop for, Euromarque Brisbane, AP Eagers, Brisbane Porche, Brisbane BMW and a couple other bigger shops

there is a reason the alfa/ferrari side of the shop don't use them anymore, goes back like 5 years. Big bloke that works at beaus the guy with the tats on his arms is a tosser to start with, not sure if he's still there. But they dogged us on a car about 5 years ago, and we had to cover the cost of that, so since then we have used jax, couldnt be happier, i get on well with the owner so needless to say i get tyres at a great price i do use alot of tyres

    • 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).
