Oran Park Gp Circuit, Monday 31st August, Cams L2s Licence Required


Recommended Posts

Hi All,

Oran Park have another Practice day on the GP Circuit scheduled for Monday 31st of August.

I'm thinking of going out, who's keen?

No need to book, but if we advise of intended numbers early then they can book Ambo etc and then more than 4 cars are permitted on track at any one time.

Needed is the usual safety gear and a CAMS L2S licence.

Post up if you think you might get out for a play.

I'm going to flick it up on the AUS300ZX forum also.

Stay Sidewayz Kidz,

Dan.

I wish i could make this one but I'll be interstate...been really keen to get out to a track this month...the next practice day that i know of is the one at Eastern creek on 25th Sep.

Ive got buckleys of getting a monday off :P

Will have to get to one of these practice days before end of year, well, before december 20 for my last supersprint there!

I am not asking - I am telling!

Just take it off, cmon you know you want to :P

im really keen on this as monday is my day off. also trying to get some mates to come. Are noobs welcome? Oh and how much does it normally cost?

Yeah mate anyone can go. All you need is a L2S CAMS licence.

Sounds like quite a few are keen, costs are $140 for the day. Pay on the Day.

I think I might have to organise some slicks and the drift Z for some circuit fun.

I'll email them now, just to give them a heads up. They usually organise the Ambo on the day though if 10 or more are there by 10am, so we'll have to see how we go.

Cheers.

Looks like we won't quite make it. I did a little more damage then we thought to the Z the other day and we've all been too busy to get it done, unfortunately the Skyline is close but also not quite there... just needs the wastgate and some intake piping done now... NICE! :cool:

Have fun you lot, I'll post up for the next one also, so keep your eyes peeled.

    • 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).
