All,

Dave from moto concepts has asked for my to try and organise another skid pan Day on Sat 27th March. After the 20 + no shows at the last day the following format will be tried.

Both pans again, the large skid pan and the figure 8, we will have 2 instructors.

Early morning, one person on a pan at a time so you can get confidence in your car and the track. After this double shoot outs with chase time on the figure 8.

You will get heaps of pan time and do around a tank of juice. There will be little wear on your car as you dont get much over 80km/hr, and your tyres will skid most of the day do wear will be nothing over the day.

The cost

35 Cars on the day, $75 deposit needed for non members $50 for members

$150 per car 35 names max,

$50 per additional driver,

$10 per passenger (Wrist bands to be used to ensure on driving

I will need a $75 deposit for non members and $50 for members

Deposits are transferable to other drivers if you cant make it, the focus is on ensuring numbers not to take your money.

I will assume 5 drop outs on the day so 30 people for the day will be comfortable.

Any questions please let me know.

Thanks OZ

Guys: just a reminder. There's an election on the 27th march and you have to vote IN YOUR ELECTORATE (there are no absent-t votes...). If you won't be in your electorate that day, ring your council and get a postal vote application sent out.

Just thought i'd better remind you when i saw the date.

Cheers,

Dave.

COUNCIL elections mate... tht's just the way they are... it's basically to save A LOT of time for eletoral emplyees... saves a lot of excess work, excess counting and excess preperation...

I work for the electoral office and i can tell you, you have no idea how much extra work there'd be if it where any other way....

    • 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).
