wet was fun.

mud on track was not.

skidding on mud, then skidding on grass, head first into wall was not as much fun.

headbutting each other with helmets on on the roof of aforementioned car that just ploughed head first into the wall... awesome fun.

stripping out all the parts to put into another shell for next drift day. not so much fun.

on average... fun day. sorry if we din get to say bye to everyone, had to take the car back to the shop by 6ish so we left before it finished.

who won the comp?

Were you in Coco's S13?

I had fun although I think I'm going to retire my R32 from drifting...

bad luck.

shit happens, but as long as no1 got hurt or injured.

things can be fixxed. life goes on

winton in the wet is gay in my opinion.

lol i don't think it phased the boys in the least. there's a couple of s13/180sx shells sitting at the shop that the parts will swap over to with no hassles. they were spewin that they crashed just before the track dried up and got really good, the way coco was doin in the practice laps he'd have made the final cull easily. next time we'll just bring more cars so if one person crashes the car then the other person doesn't miss out on a chance at the comp.

hopefully this'll prompt coco to finish his S14... if you're reading this ya frikken hipster :)

All my shots of Round 2 are now up. You should be able to search for your car as each of the photos is tagged with your car number.

Ie search for "car 161" etc. All photos are in the Vic Drift Round 2 gallery.

If you like an image, you can either choose to get it printed, in which case i will need you to send me you contact details like phone number and address, or you can simply download the image choosing one of the sizes available.

Enjoy!!

      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).
