anothe Z with skyline plates. 350z on penno hills road at midnight tonight with plates SKY.012

bloody Z's stealing your plates

Saw the legendary Slim two days ago around 5.00pm coming home from work. Just along the Pacific Highway, at the turn off before BP and the drive-in KFC. I'm not too good with street names :D

The car looks absolutely stunning mate.

spotted a red R33 at macquarie, I believe you were ice skating as well??

spotted a 32 GTR along lady game drive, and gave the peace sign to a 33 turning off pacific highway in chatswood onto whatever the fark that road is called...

just spotted a bayside blue R34 GTR, plates POSSM in norwest

i seen her before. an old lady drives it to the shops for grocery shopping, waste of an excellent car. Shes 50+ yo

i spotted 3 R33 today all was white 1 S2 turning rigth on to Appin RD 1:40pm 2nd one was also S2 turning right on to campbelltown RD 4:50pm and the last one was going in to ingleburn and hard carbon fibre bonnet with red callippers and a P plate 5:00pm

spotted a silver r32 with i think act number plates, tooted and waved as i turned off pennant hills rd this arvo... damm that car is super low and bouncy mate.

haha i think that would have been me.... sorry i didnt hear/ see you- what were you in?

Im from VIC tho not ACT :)

yeah it is super low- Melbourne roads can handle cars as low as mine easily... but sydney is TERRIBLE :P i dont think id ever bring my car back here lol...

one pot hole in the road ripped off my cooler :) it got sucked under the car as it tore and snapped the mounts for the cooler... quick road side repair with cable ties, and fixed it thismorning with new mounts... god SYD roads are bad, especially pennant hills Rd :(

spotted a silver VE commodore yesterday, plates were R35GTR

i'm sorry but if there was ever a reason to call someone a try hard because of their plates....this would be it

I hope owner of said plates are simply waiting on ownership of an R35 rather than keeping the plates on a Commo, or selling the plates for 11ty billion dollars when R35s get more common. lol

yeah, asian lady too i think, car sounded sooo hot!

spotted SLO4DR today i think at kissing point rd.

the owner of POSSM im pretty sure shes aussie.....coz shes come to my work all the time

her car roars like crazy aswell when she gives it

    • 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).
