Spotted MADGTR on Epping Rd Lane Cove at round 5pm.. nice ride :D

Thanks Miss Turbo.

Yesterday arvo about 6pm, I stopped to chat to R34 GT on Windsor Rd. We exchanged complements about each others Black 34, it was is a very clean GTT

Spotted a number of Skylines on Friday night heading into Bondi, and then at Bondi itself.  A black R34, a yellow R33 (maybe two, unless it was the same car I spotted twice), and a few others.

Had a play with a white R-32 on Oxford St around the Woollomoloo (sp?) and Paddington area, too...

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH that was me

Ive finally been spotted...

the SAU sticker gave it away.... haha i was going to my mate.. those things are f**ken quick... awd big power etc etc he was like looks like a nugget.... then u gunned it past me and he was like ok i believe you.......

to be honest the muffler makes the car sound a bit shitty.... tell u this because i know every car has a different sound from OUTSIDE the car :) each to their own though :)

yet to be spoted... oh well

I was wondering if you were from SAU, 'cos I didn't spot any stickers on the car (kinda hard when you're travelling down Oxford anyway, what with all the suicidal pedestrians and fking taxis stopping whenever and where-ever they want to).

Yeah, the big Stagea ain't too bad, hey? Was actually expecting to be left behind by you, considering the MASSIVE weight difference. Apart from the exhaust (I took the silencer out tonight to see if it improves fuel economy, by the way, so hopefully it sounds a bit different too) and the manual conversion done by the previous owner (R-32 GT-R box and six-puck clutch), it's stock as a rock - for now... Different time, different place (away from the street, or at least that much traffic), maybe the resukts will be different again.

Cheers,

Nick T. ;)

Spotted: Some hero in a silver series 2 GTS-T "ZGR-***" with green P's yesterday afternoon at Artarmon doing side to side fishtails down the middle of the highway city bound in peak hour.

Top effort moron!

at 5am ?

:lol:

I was gonna stop and put ya wipers up, but I was being followed by a dodgey looking commonwhore lol

LOL nah not that early id kill you....

that wouldnt of happened to be an old model white commodore? if so and the driver was a guy, id say stare him out and give him shit..... i had a small confrontation once with 2 guys in a white commodore in my area, they wanted to take it further until my younger brother (who is twice the size of me) came outside... became 2 on 2...hehehehe

    • 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).
