Received this in the email at work. It's from NDSOC (Nissan Datsun SportsOwners Club).

G'Day All,

A film company needs an R34 for a shoot (this Friday night if possible) in Nth Melbourne- the more modified the car is the better.

You will be paid for the evening - about 3 hours or so.

Your plates will be covered, the car is parked and does not move- the filming is around it.

Please let me know ASAP- if you know someone who would be interested feel free to pass this one- but they need to find one quickly!

Thanks

Karyn

I hope it's not for a TAC "hoon" advertisement!

there is one, but no engine in it haha

and just read your fine print, be funny if they, go on like " if you own a car like this and jazz it up like this and like that, well get you, and do all that we can to get hoons of the road"

Haha it's probably a trap to defect R34's in the hope that several will turn up on the Friday night. It's a legitimate email and car club though. Easy money and semi-fame for an R34. I'd do it if I had one.

only ones i can think of are Matts RE customs R34, MattDs drift R34 and aarons sexy white R34 GTR

MattD's would be nice. does alot of drift events, might get him some sponsers .... depends on what this whole video is for

Yeah I'm surprised no one has jumped on this. Getting paid to stand around for 3 hours while your car is parked...you can't beat that.

Just because people dont post does not mean they have not emailed :P

I saw a few people checking the thread out before, i have a feeling they would have sent emails off :D

def worth doing something like this - my jazz was used for a commercial paid $400 bux on the spot :P

Hi Guys,

Thanks to everyone who emailed me (and yes there were quite a few).

A car has been found that ticks all the boxes..... the plates are hidden, the car isn't driven - it is stationary (so wouldn'tve mattered what it looked like on the inside), but once again i appreciate you all contacting me, and to birds who posted it.

Not a bad way to earn $100's whilst you do nothing for 3 hours..!!!!

I don't know who the client is, just, was just contacted and asked to find an R34, I have a fair idea, and believe it's comedy rather than drama based.

Apparantly, they tell there is a slight possibility of another project needing a Skyline in the future so i'll let you all know if anything comes of it.

Cheers,

    • 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).
