G'day

Im guessing seeing as there are some bikes heading down, that I would be able to bring my cressida out for the day?

I also went to the last one with my R33, but ownership has now been taken over by my dad and setup is being changed at present.

any car is welcome, we have had all sorts there in the past

Timeslip is about your own PB, however if you want to line up against your 2wheel brethren then pls feel free to do just that.

We have even had a Patrol run the quarter-it rocked lol

These days are all about comradery. Brotherhood/Sisterhood of car nuts. Not to say there wont be some true dragers there too

I was more thinking along the lines of bikes may not be allowed to run against cars incase he or she was to fall off at some point down the strip. But I would love to line up against a GTR and have a go! :)

Point taken, I will take my hat off to anyone with the balls to run a bike down the strip, cars seem scary enuf.

We take our lives in our own hands everytime we jump behind the wheel or handlebars on public roads, doing it at full noise down the Strip takes more guts on a bike than this nutter(toddlls) has got.

Still- if I have to die today then going out in style has major appeal to me whether on a strip or round a track-at least then it was doing something I truly love doin rather than die of the big C or some other horrid way to go

I have run against bikes in the past, but I haven't seen any cars race against bikes in a while.

Hopefully the last piece of the puzzle shows up today or tomorrow so I can fit the new turbo on the weekend :P

Im getting a bit of a tweak done on monday with the cressida

install of 550cc injectors

U.S Cam install

and more importantly- farkin speed cut sorted with the install of a pivot speed meter.

aiming for around 20psi

Times are still going to be shithouse but if i can get a decent amount of runs down I'll be able to see where my car is and hopefully get a decent mph.

Aiming around the 120mph.

ALSO - Made payment two nights ago- So im locked in Eddie

Sweet as, don't worry my times will be shitouse as I only have a little motor :P Though aslong as it does a good skid times are irrelevant :(

The last piece of my turbo setup arrived so it'll be all hands on deck :thumbsup: fitting it on the weekend.

Cant wait hey.

What are you talking about times will be shithouse. You should hopefully be hitting 12's when ya get ya new turbs on.

Hopefully get ya fuelrail issue sorted.

definately going to rip a couple of skids.

Atleast this time the weather isn't hopefully going to be "farkin hot degrees" in may. Nice cool air.

yeoooww!!

Yeah the extreme hotness of december was pretty brutal wearing all the gear to run the bike. I reckon I drank about 3 litres of water in 2 hours haha. May is going to be sweeeeeet :)

I really wanna get a low 11 this time tho :(

Yeah can't wait to race in the cooler air, last year my car lost 3-4mph after 3 straight runs.

Hopefully a 12.xx @ 110+mph is on the cards, but will be happy with a low 13.

    • 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).
