Was in Sydney for the weekend and to cut a long story short, I somehow ended up in a outer fringe suburb (Annongrove i think?) to visit friends.

I was near a park and an Gun Metal R33 GTST, came gunning past, clutching it in the wet at a pretty decent speed.

He came back after maybe 10 mins later, doing the same thing, except for this time, he lost it and smashed into a pole, writing off the car.

The back of this car was destroyed pretty much, but the guy hopped out ok. Huge crowd gathered and when it dissipated after a few minutes the guy managed to get his car moving, the back of the car destroyed and smoke blowing EVERYWHERE.

In conclusion, this guy was a goose and I'm pretty sure would have died from shame and is VERY VERY lucky, any person in the backseats would have died, so he was save by less than a metre.

Other than that, saw a lot of nice Skylines in Sydney, although bling bling Chromies seem to be much more of a fashion when compared to Melbourne.

spotted WLD-25L R33 in Westfield Chatswood carpark tonight

Also spotted a black R34 GTT parked in Chatswood Victoria Ave

That black 34 would be mine.. Dont often park on Victoria Ave, But I know im the only one with a black 34 around that area.. so i guess it must be :thumbsup: at that time the car would have been close to stock .. maybe rims? got abit more now :domokun: Hard to remember RTA issued plates isnt it :P

The Silver 33 is a nice machine.. Forget his name but owns a real sweet 33 .. Prob one of the best IMO

Also spotted a black R32 with P-plates turning off Epping Road onto Delhi Road a while later.

Cruised home tonight about 10:30ish, on Forestway/Warringah rd with a black Series 2 coupe with 17's that looked like AVS Model 5's and stock exhaust. No stickers and stock rego plates so I'm not sure your even on here?

Spotted in Hornsby Westfield Carpark tonight a maroon R33 with 400R rear bar and GTR wing, didn't check the front, looked clean tho. And also a black R33 GTS-T with a veilside front bar, vented bonnet, GTR wing and a GTR badge stuck on the back. :D Also had green P Plates

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
