While I agree that some of Dennis's opinions of peoples cars can be considered to be a bit harsh, they are just that, HIS OPINION. You lot need to HTFU and stop caring so much what OTHER people think of your cars.

I will not stop people airing their opinions, for that is what the forum is about.

If you dont want to hear what others think of your pride and joy, dont post it.

Dennis, go easy on the girls, and girls, grow a sack..

I pretty much leave this forum alone for you to do as you please, but i DO keep an eye on it, and still get emails of every post made.

Dont make me restrict the Classics Section to information only, as that would be a shame.

Cheers

Jason

Perhaps we should have a "Cage" forum, you know like a cyber cage fight. If people are having their differences they can take their angst and aggressions to the "Cage" where they can buckle each others bumpers, and snap each others wiper blades. Maybe as onlookers we could score and rate each attack. but strickly no comments.

I'd better get a patent on this, I can hear your distorted minds thinking he's onto something big here.

This is just my opinion, please don't attack me.

I couldn't agree more as Dennis adds an enormous amount of information to the forum and I value his opinions even if I may not agree entirely.

i'm guilty of escalating hostilities in this thread as I don't mind critisism as such but become agitated when they are of a personal nature.

Me and Dennis are all good ....for now :P

Yeah I was wonderin if they'd turn up soon. You could wrap them in chrissy paper and send them to me for Christmas, maybe I'll just wait for a cold snap. You do like the cold don't you or is it really true, you dislike everything LOL

DR Josh, "another reason why I don't bother with this place", and yet here you are. The thread was sorted days ago. stfu.

My point exactly I'm lucky to come in here once a month if that to have a look and rarely ever post in here.

I have been on the recieving end of Ghostriders rubbish before as far as I'm concerned why post in here and have any type of input when I just cop flack for it? You may even get new people posting in here if this type of shit didnt go on.

I dont give a shit about people having their opinions on a way a car is modified (I know I have mine) but it seems more often then not it is taken a few steps too far and turned into a personal attack as is proven earlier in this thread

How come so many people are copping flack in this section, when there is really only one offender?

Because the "offender" seems to be buddy buddy with the only moderator that comes in here :D

(assuming the mod you speak of is me)

Things aren't always what they seem.

I've never met him, never bought from him, or sold to him, and i would have sent/recieved less than 10 PM's from him in the 7 yrs Ive been here.

I rarely agree with his opinions, but I do respect his knowledge on the Older Skylines.

The MK1's Look great buddy, Really nice DR, I would just do mechanical and add more old school flavor in the interior department. Hope you end up keeping this one and complying it. When I am finished with mine we have to organize a cruise sometime. You have to love the haters because the car isn't to their tastiest of dreams. Not everyone can have a tomica dr30, even so i bet they would still find something wrong with it. Good luck with her and for god sake's please keep us updated with more piccies!!

I sooooo want a DR30 road car. Yours makes me want one even more. Gotta be an ironmask tho. Their prices are going through the roof now, gonna miss the boat if I don't act soon.

I don't know anywhere near enough about DR30's despite owning one, but the race car has manual windows, despite being a genuine RSX 2000c, anyone shed any light on that?

Yer i know what you mean, i Wouldnt let mine go for a cent less then 14k, getting really hard to find nice modified examples, specially without any body or rust damage.

Not that i would sell it hehehe Always wanted one since i was 11 years old

    • 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).
