Very nice R34 GT-R mate! I seen you coming out of Watergardens turning left onto melton hwy last friday - I was across the other side then my neck snapped hahah. Thought there was a new car on the block :D

That wouldn't have been him :P

Hey buddy, how have you been?? I loved that GTO i had, it was perfect in so many ways but was a difficult car to own to say the least, awesome tourque and a perfect long distance cruiser, it just wasnt as practical as a Skyline as it sat in the garage for months on end. I let that go for an silly cheap amount considering it was probably the best condition ones it had seen and the price I got wouldn't even have covered the mods! oh well, that cars for you!

I think that I will finally be happy with this car and hang on to it for a while, thanks for the chat the other week, I needed some more convincing to buy a GTR!

I love the look of the series 1 GTO's with their pop-up lights. The later versions with their ugly headlights just didn't do it for me.

LOL @ R34 GTR being practical. You must be the only person on SAU-Vic who changed to a LIGHTER car when you bought an R34 GTR lol.

Well those of you that know me, know that I have been wanting a GTR forever and have always found a reason to buy something different, well finally here she is!

She looks sweet Dave..

There is only i thing i have to say...DECA... :(

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
