Managed to talk to the couple of people i know that went last night, they all enjoyed it and said the show goes for roughly an hour and a half.

Also give yourselves a bit of time to have a look around out the front before you go in as there is plenty to look at plus some motor x guys doing jumps and the stunt riders.

They also mentioned if your driving they parked in the P1 parking complex but they said it was a bit crazy trying to get out so if you can get there earlier enough to be on the bottom level and pay the full parking fee upfront you will get out a lot quicker as the line to pay parking was huge.

Hope this helps. :sick:

I putt around in an 08 red gti peugeot normally. The 32 probably comes out once a fortnight to keep cobwebs from forming. I will give my opinion after my session tonight. Good to know that I should get in early to see some exhibits before hand.

Went last night, was brilliant. It was definetly better than last year, the hosts were better and the show was better too. They had Skaife/Richards GTR from Bathurst in 92 which I found quite amusing as it was just sitting there being ignored amongst all of the Brockie Commodores and old XC-XD Falcons. If you've never been to acer arena park near the down ramps takes you like 5 minutes to get out as opposed to the 45 minutes it took me last year. May and Clarkson are definetly the better Duo rather than Clarkson and Hammond they have much better chemistry and the jokes were gold, like when Clarkson was staring at this girl with a low cut top and was really distracted then he grabbed the camera pointed it at the girl got her up on the big screen and said "now would you be concerntrating on the show your doing?"

    • 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).
