lol, fair call.

Clutch in my m3 has a super low point... I'm used to it and it was changed recently too =/

I just sold a 318is E36 and the clutch had a slightly low take up point on it however I put this doen to wear, but I did find out that the take up point could be adjusted in the E30 and some other models (not the friken E36 though) it may pay to see if yours can be adjusted also if you're slave and master cylinders are ok--just a thought. :touch:

BASHO - if you're open to front wheel drive I've got a 2000 model pulsar with a turbo conversion that I'm selling. I've got 11k on it and its in a hell of a lot better condition than some of the cars you seem to have looked at. Unless you're into drifting it might be worth a look.

Meh, I duno. Ie you can't change gear without the pedal being to the floor. <Doesn't bother me at all though.

Fairly sure everything's right atm, I have some biiiiiiiiig receipt bills :D

Tell' me about it, I sold my sterling 98 R34GT-t (big mistake) because I got the shits about Qld 6cyl rego frakin silly insurace and associated running costs and bought an Aus delivered 97 318is with 62000kms, all good until I found out the BMW charges $700.00 for a set of 4 plug leads--$840.00 for an AFM etc etc .

I couldn't sell the frakin thing fast enough , it's now gone, I had it 2 months from pick up to piss off , I didn't loose any money anywhere but the upshot of my bad attitude is that I'm now searchig for another car I can like and I'm driving round in the wifes PT frakin Cruiser.

here's pics of my now gone R34GT-t,

i think that both R33 and Zz30 are nice... But they are old hat... To make them nice they must do something different away from the norm to keep the ''OG jdm'' flag flying.. They have to be unique to mix it with the new wave of V35 and other new ''buzz'' imports.. Same goes for s13... If you're driving og jdm in 2010 make sure you step your game up so that you can stand out from the other poorasses that get them :D

Fair enough man, after seeing you mention wrx's as well i figure it was worth a shot. Good luck with your search.

And someone mentioned gtir - theyre awd pulsars with the sr20det.

oh good that yours isn't standard cos neither's my ''ugly'' soarer.. :rofl:

[opinion]My god you make your cars ugly.[/opinion]

The second half of your carsales ad is excellent. I'd do much the same to sell a car. Funny gets the enquiries.

Unless the cars are fugly, ofc.

:(

As I said personal opinion dude so dont be offended ;)

It could be the fact that every soarer I see is that shitty early nineties green colour and they all have really badly faded headlights.

But I'm getting too off topic, sorry OP. How goes the hunt? I vote S15 with vertex kit :rofl:

The hunt goes no-where :D

I've got one last 180 to see on Thurs, then nada that I can get to without hassle.

The whole 180sx marque (that I've come across) has been fraked by silly mods and owners who have obviously spent far to much time reading Fast Fours, then gone out and worked out every permutation of mod that either makes the car go slower of blows it up---then done them to thier unsuspecting 180s , though I have to say theres a goodly number of the same farkers who have applied the same logic to WRXs from what I've seen so far as well.

This excercise gives a whole new reason for car dealers to exist , -and me the shits..

I think if I'm determined to get a 180 I'm going to have to bring one in ---actualy see if Kristian (Iron Chef) thinks there may be one worth bringing in first

I have been looking at the R33GTS-t ser IIs on carsales and there seem to be some good ones around so I'm seriously thinking of saying farkit I'm back in a line , stop bitchin and eat the costs.

    • 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).
