Oh bugger – totally forgot to update about some things.

1. NDSOC (Nissan Datsun) are there also, just next to where we were. So there will be some sweet old school Zed’s and there. So this will be a HUGE HUGE show’n’shine potentially holding over 100 cars.

2. We have gained a “elevated” area to park cars on – I will decide which cars go there (cars like Matt’s 34GTR, Scott/Johns R32 GTR replica etc).

3. Entry plan has changed slightly. I will do a map shortly. Essentially it’s the same, we are just using a new gate. I will post this later tonight.

And the big one…

I need help – I need to make 2 ramps to get cars onto the elevated area

I plan to do this on Sat as Calder looks like it’ll be cancelled weather wise.

Anyone willing to come and help? I will do it outta wood, cover all expenses etc. Just need someone to bring a saw and a few other bits.

Probably start about 10am, measure it up. Then go to hardware store and buy/create some magic :whistling:

So it does kinda help if you are good with your hands etc at this stuff – if not it’ll just cause issues

If you can help out it would be appreciated, it’ll be worth the effort I promise that much :)

i can help sat evening...will try changing my shift for saturday to make in the morning instead of arvo so i can help.. :whistling:

will let you know...

what kinda tools you looking at that you might need?

nothing special.

just saw, hammer... it'll be fairly rudimentary style, but it'll work :whistling:

it’ll be worth the effort I promise that much ;)

come on boys, this is code for reacharounds... start volunteering!

would love to come and stickybeak (at the show n shine that is) but have exams a few days later :(

so sleep for 2hrs and then come :(

I've come direct from nightshift to events before!

also looks like ramp stuff is sorted.

thanks to Dan, we are checking it out Thursday night now. problem averted at this stage ;)

looks like we might get a visit from the aus rotor club as well. one of my friends has organised a cruise for them that day, and theyre route takes them right past our show... so they might be stopping to take a look at some real cars :D

should we be getting ready for a rumble? O.o

;)

    • 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).
