Spotted a couple of grey 33s, a maroon 32 and a black 240Z(?) with SAU stickers on it at Thornleigh Maccas last night.

That grey 33 that was stripped out looked good, it's good to see more people interested in going fast! (Mine is even more stripped)!

Lol... that was us ... black 200zr btw!

Were you the guys walking around the cars whilst we waited for the nice hwp car that parked next to us to leave :) ???

Haha.. yeah we waited around until the hwy patrol left.. which of the two guys were you?? :(

spotted some idiots box trailer gate fall open and his load of rocks fall out onto the road in front of me thismorning - then I spotted a nice big rock hit my front bar and take a chunk out of it....... :D

no he didn't stop

no I didn't get his rego (the trailer gate was down)

no I didn't chase after him - the rocks all over the road kinda stopped me and all the other traffic

YES - I'M PI55ED OFF....... :P

I noticed after a drive thru the nasho the other day that I have a bunch of stone chips that were not there before :P

:(

I got a bunch of them too...... I was lucky really - there was a small tray top ute in front of me that ended up with a broken windscreen, dents in his bonnet and cracked front bumper..... I got stone chips across my bonnet and in my windscreen and pulled up literally centimetres from the back of his ute, we both braked so suddenly and were so shocked to see rocks bouncing off the road and flying thru the air that we almost had an acco to top it off! No one could go anywhere til we moved all the rocks off the road - I just don't understand how you can drop a load of rocks on the road like that and not realise.....??? :D

    • 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).
