How does one know if one is "old skool" or "original"?

I was at the last one so I will probably turn up anyway.

Normally, I would've said if you can remember Nik, Ewan and Mark the Drunk downing brews and making us all laugh, the 'Purple People Eater', too many Andrews to count, trivia before iPhones, Jerra's particularly cold(boosting)evenings, Integra Automotive, HKS Type 1 EBC's, wondering which one or if any of the girls were going to show up, Race Snooze's wicked white thing, you'd be 'old school', but now I'm more inclined to think it's a frame of mind. If your Skyline is a 'keeper', not to be chopped in on the next 'fad' car, you respect the numbers 30 through 34, realise the faux pas of incorrect model badging, love knowing your marque is the reason it's a two-taxi race at The Mountain...you get the idea. Thoughts?!?

I remember all of those people...

But the ultimate "Old Skool" moment was when we all bet James $20 that he wouldnt snort a line of salt... We lost :D

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      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

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      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).

      Unpeeling the Orange

      EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
