Looking for interested people to get a decent cruise together.

Head off from a meeting point on the Sunny Coast and head down to Mount Mee and Mount Glorious via Sumerset.

Please add to this topic if you are interested, more the merrier.

Will get more details, like dates, together when we get a better idea of numbers and when we are all are available.

Mate thats an awesome drive out that way. We used to do it quite a bit before we all started getting married and having kids. I'd be keen I should get my car back from the compliance shop soon and would love a nice long run. I'll keep an eye on this thread for some dates yeah. When we do go just don't leave me behind hey. :blush:

just came over glorious about 45 minutes ago...

DOT and Cop's were measuring out distances on a small straight bit, looks like a fixed speed camera might be going in shortly...

Also please list your cruise plans as an EOI and post them in events not the main section.... Ta (moved and edited)

Meh, i take the riders approach, bigger the pack, the better your chances of not being the one pulled over :P

Fixed speed camera out there, thats messed...

Thats 6 keen so far :huh:

Nice. Well, lets start planning.

This weekend is Charity Cruise,

Next weekend is Jambo,

Then a wedding,

Finally Powercruise.

So... all in favor of Sunday the 20th September? Also thinking nice and early, nice cool air aids in maintaining speed limits :P

I'm there! In car or on bike :(

Do it in your car first...

fixed speed camera :S

Its not confirmed or even installed yet... I was just saying they were measurng it up...

The same way they measured up the story bridge camera so I figure thats what their up to...

FYI, early morning the light creaps in through the canopy and makes it rather difficult in places to see the lines or even the road for that matter...

Make sure you have a good set of sunnies to break down the glare...

Late afternoon is very nice up that way, the road is much easier to see and there are way less bikes in the afternoon...

PS> Make sure you stop at the cafe at the top, they make a mean nachos and fantastic coffee...

    • 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).
