I just finished scanning in a 1/2 hour beachside cruise route from my melways. Would anyone be interested in doing a cruise from Mentone beach all the way along the coast line Esplenade up to Elwood Beach? If so let me know and I'll organise meet up points, maps etc.

i would give some ppl a lift, but it would be in my 33 so 3 people plus me would be a tight but could be done.

i have no problem doing this as i dont drink!!!!!!

Yeah so pm me or some shit...

i might not be able to stay the whole time, but ill be able to drop you off stay for a while then pick you up later...

Looks like Elwood's the place!

And... just to be selfish - I'd prefer Sunday ;)

if there was a good reason for it then I would accept it. The original day / date by the first post was Saturday 20th and now because of this change I can't go...:D

I am not asking anyone to change anything for me...but I would have liked to come.

Go the Saturday POLL!!!

Here's the route of the cruise I was suggesting.

Loc 1 is mentone beach jus come down warrigul road and turn right then left into the carpark next to the beach.

Loc 2 is a lookout point with a 360 degree view of the ocean AND a carpark that overlooks this. Hopefully this will give some of us to take some nice images.

Loc 3 is the carpark next to the barbeques at Elwood beach. THis is where we will rendezvous with non cruisers.

Let me know if you are interested or have any ideas.

BTW almost every1 i've spoken to is keen for saturday, how about we just fix it for that date (20th).

Also the cruise should take about 30mins with no traffic, 50 with traffic. If at any point you wanna get to the end faster, the napean highway runs parrallel and goes directly to Elwood.

someone pm me when this wives club finalises a date and time:D:D

HAPPY NEW YRS!!

that comment is not even half funny.

are you jealous because you can't express yourself or what?

I'm sorry for wanting to be a part of this event.

are you jealous because you can't express yourself or what?

???????

lighten up dude!! obviously it was a silly and sarcastic comment but dont go and try to read between the lines because (a) theres probably nothing there to read and (B) its a waste of time.

maybe i should just shut up to make everyone happy.

PEACE!!

    • 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).
