Thanks for the pics Bob.

However, I believe that...

1) the Organisers didn't submit a Schedule 1 form to the Police which irked them and the locals a bit and...

2) there was an accident along the way

???

1. yeh there apparentl were over 2000 people who were unable to gain acces into the park at camden

2. ther was actually around 4-5 accidents unfortunatley

In relation to #2, was there not an emphatic briefing to drivers at the start?

And were all drivers at the briefing? > Paying attention - or ADD?

sorry wasnt there, was planning to go but didnt, just saying what i heard from friends,

But yeh they were breifed and there was plenty of police presence, just the usual idiots that wreck cruises similar to this.

Massive turnout. Saw one small prang on the way down, well maybe not to small, the front end of a Silvia was gone..

I thought the organisation wasnt very good. Too many cars, so police ended up closing off the entrance in to the park. Then ended up closing the road further up 'cos of the traffic pile up. We parked further up the street and walked down to the area, made our donation and got our sticker.

Nothing special at the EQUESTRIAN PARK. I thought they could have had more entertainment and events occurring at the grounds.

Still a nice day to enjoy a drive in a beautiful Skyline!!:yes:

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • 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
