Well Calder Park should be renamed to Carnage Park!

Was a shame to see 2 skylines did their motor...

a WRX smacked the wall the practice session, and an evo also dropped alot of oil and retired early.

Congrats to Adz in Big Red, last time I saw was a 1:01.... would have gone into the high 50's for sure.

John in his replacement skyline was driving well, last time i saw was 1:08 before I left - awesome effort for standard class!

And my time was crap, as I expected after 2 years with no track days... maybe if I lost 20kg I'd be faster lol. (more powaahh and no misfiring coilpacks would be nice too :D)

Good day! Managed a 1.13.06. Pretty happy with that. Definetly need more power down the straights, was good to keep up with a c63 AMG through the corner but would pull away heaps on the straight. Can't wait to get tyres though!! Biggest issue I have.

Yeah good day think by every-one.

took a second off my previous best.

lots more potential there just gotta get the balls to hit brakes harder and later!

Jake how did your car go? You were parked in the boon docks and I didn't get a chance to chat. Hope to see you at

Winton the car sounded good on track.

The other silver 33 gtst lost his turbo as well....So yet again the first shakedown for the year took its toll. Hope to see all back at the track soon!

Sunburn all round, nothing broken, faster time than last year. Good shakedown for the new shell.

i had a prick of a day. on my first fast lap on turn one my brakes failed. i didnt brake very late. started at the 300m make and still ended missing the turn. lucky they have abit of runoff room. front left bleed nipple was leaking and it was tight. so we pulled it out to see if it was damaged. but it looked good so we changed the nipple anyway and bled the brakes. it lasted a few more laps then started leaking again.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
