MJ - I did a guesstimate of 2 hours but Nexus9 says we should be able to do the run in ~1 hour as he has done that route"many a time" It's apity you cant finish work 30 mins early, or what is the earliest you could make it to BP Yatala, I was planning on leaving 9pm to 9:30pm so if you can make it there at like 9:45pm what does everyone think can we wait around a bit longer for MJ?

i will try and get work off an hour or 1/2 hour early it really depends how busy i am that day. If i cant dont wait up for me though im too slow for mountain runs anyway and ill just meet you guys at coomera. So if you leave around 9ish and ill probably get to coomera about 10, as ill go home and get changed while you guys are cruising and ill meet yas there.

Just got the OK from the boss to borrow his really expensive digital camera tonight, so I will endeavour to take a pic of everyones car, so that no one feels unloved, or for those who want some really nice shots, why not stop along the M1 there's a big overpass, I think it is the hope island/sanctuary cove exit anyway that would be a great spot for some drive by or some "other" type shots :D *cough*

15 people confirmed + all those lurkers.

PLEASE NOTE twoquik has pointed out a serious error in the directions with the pictures, please use the link provided in the PM _IF_ you are printing out your own copies to bring!

Yeah to those who are coming, if it is not raining, we might be the first people, other than slip/Gary to see the QLD SAU Member T-Shirts :) _MIGHT_ if it is not raining, and it has not started raining, but I am certainly hoping it does not. This is what it looked like yesterday and we didnt get a drop out of it, so hoping it will be the same tonight :D

    • 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).
