hey guys this is a friend of myn this was taken from another forum but please keep your eyes open for it

89 Nissan 300ZX twin turbo got stolen around midnight last night. If anybody see's it or comes across anybody dismantling a performance 300ZX please call me on 0403 849 433. ANY information would be appreciated.

I don't know much about it, its 16psi overboosted with Tien coilovers and Gulf Stich rims. ACT plates YGB33H. Dad loves this car and it just pisses me off to think some scum out there have the nerve to come to our house and take it from our driveway.

I don't suspect we will be seeing it again (at least not in once piece) but please keep an eye out for it! The neighbours noticed that there have been a lot of cars cruising up and down our street in Conder lately but thought nothing of it. When my Dad went outside this morning his car was gone and the thieves had left a light blue laser hatch which was also stolen. Forensics have been here this morning to try and get prints off the laser and the owner came and picked it up.

The thieves were either very lucky or very organised because the 300ZX is normally parked in our locked garage but it had to be moved out so was unprotected outside on our driveway. As well as that, I normally park the Nissan in with my BMW but I have been house sitting so there was nothing stopping the thieves. Again, if you see ANYTHING that might be to do with the car don’t hesitate to contact me. Thanks.

Thats it, we need to adopt American sentencing for car theft, not slapping them on the wrist. I'll keep an eye out for it aswell, as being in Gungahlin they might bring it here thinking it too far away for people to recognise it here. Good thing is that wing will stand out as I havent seen many like that.

Put a number we can use to contact someone. Hope it is found.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      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.

      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).
