Yep. Was a great day - well done Andrew for setting it up.

Considering how many SA members there are it would be good to get

EVERYONE out for a blast one day. There are rarely any cop hassles &

we always have a great time. The Go-karts were good fun too.

Lets do it again sometime.

Cant wait to see the vids & pics.

Yeah i was gonna come but i forgot i had to work @ 3.....

Sounded like an awesome day wish i didn't have to work :D

Although i was thinkin about a late night cruise possibly in the next few weeks

maybe 9-10ish?

The cruise we went on friday night wasn't too bad, John and Erica wot did u think?

Needed something longer tho and so i was maybe thinking Gorge Rd (spelling?)

and through to Hahndorf?

Oh well next time i hope to be out but shall see wot happens

Yep Awesome day.

I had a ball.. G-karts are super fun.. my sides are a bit sore.. It was cool having other girls out there to race, (Mel, Rob's GF, timmmy) :D Cos i think we were all about the same skill level..haha unlike pawley, mattR diggity.. you are SAU speed demons who take no prisoners.

MADGT4, Friday nights cruise was kinda just a spur of the moment thing. But it was still good cos it was such a good night. I definately think they should be a more regular occurance.

I went down the road ( opposite way to where you left ) and took a right at the end of the street.

I was going along for ages ( 2km or so ) and I came across a slow car ( 40 on a 70 for while ), he/she pulled 3/4 off the road and that is where he/she stayed.

I overtook, didn’t go very hard cos I wasn’t in a hurry, just killing time, and the next thing I know there is a copper going hard in the rear view mirror.

He had to stop because there was a car coming towards him and he couldn’t get around because the other car wouldn’t pull all the way off the road.

Once he got past that he was still coming hard towards me still going hard, when I got to the end of the road I went right before the stream of traffic, I didn’t see him again.

Damn, cop! I didn’t do anything, perhaps someone called the cops after you lot exitited the car park and they where still in the area?

He didn’t do anything about the car that wouldn’t pull off the road when I was around, maybe he did once I left.

He never had his lights or sirens on but was flogging his car to pieces, I have no idea what his problem was.

What time did you lot leave?

sorry i had to piss off early.. had other commitments to attend to.

gokarts was wicked fun. and erica im not a girl. Rob how'd u score the kart that went the fastest everytime??? bastard :D

thanks for organising it andrew I had a great time.

lunch was pretty respectable too!!

Tim

You're welcome guys .... :D .... so when is the next event?

Suggestions so far are:

1. paintballing

2. jet skiing

3. water-skiing

4. wine tour

What does everyone think? Any other ideas?

Yeah was a good day. I was feeling a little too seedy to get my fat ass in a Go Kart However ....there's always next time.

Vid looks good too. My car looks SLOW!!! but I guess every1 says that :D (About their own cars ..not mine ..well I hope!)

Maybe next time we can goto a different pub though ...As we went to the same one last SAU cruise ??

Was good to catch up with some of you girls again too (Mel, Erica & Tim) :)

    • 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).
