My favourite response to people tail gating is to give the brakes a gentle push...

Bloody BMW drivers!!!!!  :D

was driving on the way to work today, when i came across a car in the right hand lane, doing about 65kph. so i happily decided to move into the left hand lane to pass it, so i did. then i happen to come across another one and did the same thing, as we were pulling up to a set of lights (about 100m away!). lights go green, i take off (wasn't racing, but was moving quicker than everyone else), then from no where, this silver BMW decides to sit on my arse. so i speed up a little, but he doen't move. coming into the big roundabout at woden, i get a little tired of this knob, and gun it through there, loosing him. then he comes back along the straight, so he sits on my arse again. im passing a truck, so i cant move over, when i do, he races up beside me and shakes his head and makes a fist at me??? as if to say "you bloody hoon"! What The F*ck?!?! he was sitting on my arse and causing road rage when it was totally uncalled for, and im at fault??? that just really pissed me off.... im about to punch the computer screen it makes me so angry!!! aaaarrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!! :D  :angry:  :angry:  :angry:

*end rant and rage*

what ever happened to that avo-schtickered 32???

To set the record straight, this car is heading back to canberra, its track days behind it, it will however be menacing in its street clothes...

P.S. watch for it in about a month or so... B) B)

i've found that its never worked, nor has it ever worked on me.....

Yeah not much of a fan for that either.. and can cause you some stress if the guy isnt switched on..

I instead just slow down to a stupid speed, and just ride at that for a while.. it gives u a bit of a laugh.. and pisses them off :P

That'd be Theo with the 34 GT-R.

Spotted this evening on Hindmarsh Drive about 6:40 ish

- Yellow R34 25GT-t

- Grey R32 GTS-t 4-door

About 15 seconds apart from each other

Does Theo have a v-spec with a (sorry to say it mate) horrible looking front spoiler?

As the guys have already suggested;no,it hasn't got a horrible looking front spoiler,but it does have it's standard V Spec' bodykit in pristine condition. That car is flat out HORN,and there would only be visually-challenged or slightly retarded people in the world that think a standard R34 GT-R looks anything but sex-on-wheels...Maybe you saw someone else?(Exactly how many OTHER Bayside Blue GT-R's could it possibly be?Was it possibly be an R34 GT-T?).Oh,spotted a silver R33 GTS-T threading thriugh the traffic on Limestone Ave on Tuesday morn';whoever it was wouldn't have spotted me-I was on my bike riding to work,clad in Lycre(TM,Patent Pending...LOL)and carbon fibre stuff...

    • 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).
