-Z31 Urethane solid rear subframe bushes fitted.

-Rebuilt Alternator/New High capacity Battery Fitted at same time

Ive replaced the old RB20 due to it having low comp on one cylinder, so it has a RB20 out of a cefiro in it, so far its given me no drams, doesnt blow smoke/burn or leak any oil. Majority of the gaskets were replaced, and the timing belt and water pump have been done recently on it.

Ive had the car dynoed recently and it made 167kws on 14pound, and around 155kws on 12 pound which is what its running atm. Should also mention that i only run this on BP Ultimate, nothing less!!

Bad Points:

-Both rear quarters have dents in them, one side was has been there since ive owned it, the other side was caused by my sub not being bolted down angry.gif

-Castor Rod Bushes worn slightly, evident when braking at around 80kmph

Price: $12,000 ono. Im fairly open to offers though, so dont hesitate to make one thats not to rediculous! Ive spent around 6-7k on this since ive owned it, so im in no way getting as much back as id like, but im happy to see it go to someone who will look after it and enjoy it as much as i have!

I know theres more but cant think of everything at the moment, so il be editing this every now and then! But if anyone is generally interested there best off coming to look at it and il tell you everything youl need to know!

Heres a few pics, can get more upn request.

Man i love hr31's...still got fond memories of my old one!

Very nice example dude, i can see where your money has gone, very well put together coupe....silvertop, brakes, coil overs, properly remove hicas, bushes...all shit that hr31's need to make them right, and it's done ;-)

Wish i could justify a third car, cause this would be sweet!

Best of luck with the sale....don't drop too low, the right buyer will come along. 10k is low enough for one as nice as this.

    • 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).
