i like this alot, awesome for a track car. Is she one of the few people in the world who actually use a pen/texta till it completely runs out? before loosing it or accidently leaving the cap off? lol :D

haha, honestly, the tips get damaged too badly to finish using the markers, so they still get thrown out before they are finished.

Thank you SkyHi!

Astro- actually, I was going to repaint the car anyway, and she asked could she draw over a scratched area on the front bumper and I said sure, and then it wound up that the whole bumper got finished. Then we just decided to do the whole car from there.

here's what I did today.. ..haha, not really that much.. I boufght some new lugnuts that match the GTR logo.

She just draws it freehand. No planning out. Kinda crazy to watch too! Thanks to everyone for the encouragement! Hopefully I can get some tires ordered today. Thats the goal. The weak offset wheels gotta go!

She must have a very creative mind!

:(

i gotta say it looks great, always good to see something different out there than other than all the white/grey/maroon 33's haha. i got one question that i dont think anyone has asked yet but .... how many texta's have u gone through ?!?! lol

looks great keep it up with the pics !

Just out of curiosity... How is she intending to do the roof? :D

*In mind all I can think of is like those lan parties where you duct tape her to the ceiling and then slowly drive the car underneath*

Seriously awesome work though =D

Just out of curiosity... How is she intending to do the roof? :laugh:

A combination of her standing on a stool and me jacking up the opposite side of the car. shouldn't be too bad!

does your GF wanna do my car in white nikko :)

maybe!, all i know is that if free lift tickets to snowboarding didn't cut it as payment, I would be out of luck. if we take a very reserved 20USD/hour wage for this times 68 hours, that's almost 1,400USD. in actuality the rate would be higher, and the car still isn't 50% done!!!

wow that looks really good .. Great effort thumbsup.gif

thanks!

    • 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).
