Got word to-day from Terry Ashwood that he'll be coming down from Qld for our R32 Event - as guest and dignitary.

He'll be signing the Award Certificates. :D

Black_Widow ie Nick, our fellow Organiser, has been able to secure some Car-care gifts. Many, many thanks to Meguiars for their generosity. :) Perhaps, you can tell us more about your efforts Nick?

Perhaps some of you who have already purchased tickets would like to organise groups? :D Then you can enter the cinema as a group?

Sorry that we can't discount - but then you understand why - the charity needs your money.

At least the cinema has been paid for now.

Many thanks for this, go to our sponsors Top Secret Imports and Just Jap :D

Reminder: for those who have said they're "IN" please be aware you have to pay for a ticket -- so please contact Terry about that

I presume that was meant for me... I just checked my mail and the email I sent bounced. It has been re-sent now. Can you please make sure that it comes through and if not shoot me a PM or something so I dont miss out???

Thanks - Thomas.

Yes Thomas, this last E-mail has come through this morning.

Tickets are being sent to you to-day.

Look forward to seeing 2 of you on the big day. :)

We're glad that we organisers were talked out of hiring Cinema #2 by Top Secret Imports.

It had 128 seats, and now, 100 seats have been taken already.

If you haven't purchased your cinema tickets yet, we would press the point that you buy them soon. Only $15 per ticket. :)

We now have more than 2x visitors from each of Country NSW, South Australia, Aust. Capital Territory, Queensland and now, Victoria ! ! !

Most States/Territories are now represented ! ! !

Those coming from afar can contact GTRKat for details on where to stay that's close by and have your precious cars in a locked secure compound.

We organisers will thank that establishment by name in the wrapup ! ! !

We've gone National ! ! ! ;)

You won't get your cars into the secure carpark at Lilianfels if thats where they are being suggested to stay...

No that's not the place Ben. ;)

We have a place under wraps & it's suitable for low lip cars.

Even the establishment's manager is coming with his R33 GT-R.

And we'll reveal the establishment in our 'Thank You's after the Event.

Someone on the forum asked me if this Event was exclusively for Skylines.

The answer is emphatically NO.

All SAUers (+ their partners/family/friends) are welcome to this fantastic occasion!

The beneficiaries will be SAU & The Children's Hospital Westmead!

It's quite remarkable to see from 2-6 tix going to most Postcodes. Seems like a family day is in order! ;)

...and our organisers are chuffed!

Are there many servo's with 98 if your heading down from brisbane just asking because my car really chews the juice ?

Should be fine, so long as you stay on the Pacific (rather than N. England).

We'd love some more Queenslanders! :(

And Jez...

A convoy is coming up from Canberra.

You might as well organise one too. :mad:

Cant believe i have totally missed this tread. i shall be making payment shortly.

I have also just finished my second 1:10 Scale rc shell of the Winfield GTR which i shall sit on my parcel shelf.

Terry if you guys are setting up a display or something at the cinema id be more than happy to donate it for the day.

I recall Terry buying that off you... - and some of us commented that you undercharged him... LOL

I think that anything that'll help this event's atmosphere will be good John. We're thinking about an SAU table atm.

Just Jap & Top Secret Imports will have their displays just inside & outside the front doors.

When you buy your tix, let me know in the e-mail what you have in mind > I'll put it to the others. Many thanks for your kind gesture! :thumbsup:

I dont think you'd want to do that... last time I left a plastic scale model car on the parcel shelf it warped and partially melted due to the sun!

    • 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).
