Just did a quick search, and it looks like parking in the area is expensive, especially if you don't make it! lol

Does anyone know if there is cheap parking on weekends there? I can't imagine making it by 10AM...

This is open events :P

You are more than welcome to come along mate and checkout the display, it is a good showcase for our club and often we get people joining this high calibur group :P

However to participate you ned to be a member, so look forward to seeing you there!

There are a few hotels (medina) on Latrobe, all you do is get a tram. Easy as :cool:

As for parking not in the event, it is normal city pricing really. Everywhere is expensive these days CBD wise.

You can part on Victoria St however. It will be a 4hr park and about $5.

Then you simply can catch a tram down Latrobe St, it will drop you off about 100 meters from where we will be.

We have a committee meeting tonight - so i will bring that up.

Being you'll need to be a paying member to be covered by insurance, non-members won't be able to get out onto the Pier, we won't be letting anyone without a membership to move/enter a car.

We'll have that covered. It will be a SAU Vic member driving it.

If I decide to enter my car I'll need to unload if from the trailer because of EPA/Defect issues. Don't spose that'll be easy Ash?

It's upto you to organise :P

Although i would imagine it would not be that difficult - what will be difficult is storing a car with a trailer attached to it in the surrounding area's...

I'll be there but without a car this time. I thought my car looked pretty bad last year, now almost 12 months have gone by and it's even worse, absolute drift p1g, sporting a lack of a front bar these days too, thanks Leon :)

    • 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).
