I would rather get there early in the afternoon and have time to have a bit of a look around town, few drinks a nanna nap, or all of the above. Arriving at dinner time is a PITA, especially to catch up with other SAUers there (like Ash) before it gets too late in the day. I also want to head to a car wash to give the beast a wash after the long journey. And I agree with Steve - driving early in the morning is much better for traffic etc also.

Same, would rather leave super early and arrive during the afternoon.

Early start is good

suggestion, meet at tailem bend, much easier (and on the highway) rather than ducking into mt barker (and dealing with other issues at that time of the morning)

Im registered for show and shine, and merch pack. goal now is to get my long range tank installed :laugh:

There is no "rego" as such on the Friday, just anyone and everyone settling in as people are coming in at all different times etc.

On the Sat morning @ Winton it will all happen & you can collect your packs etc. Much easier with everyone @ the same place, less running around for everyone.

It'll all occur Import Monster tent - but there will be signs on the day so you wont get lost :)

Looking forward to having a few beers with you blokes!

Good to see a few SA member entries already in :thumbsup:

So who from SA is coming over to get beat by the Vic guys at the track day??!!? Who is coming to watch, for free, some insane SR's and RB's?!?

Any standard class guys/girls? Grab some AD08's and make the drive to Winton! errrr sorry, grab some KU36's that way we will be faster :)

This S'n'S entry made me laugh..

Matthew Tonkin Nissan Patrol 1996

:worship:

Might have to get my rust filled Safari up lol!

well, you did say i could enter it Ash :P its kinda like my GTR...........straight 6, turbo, 4wd..........but its not broken :laugh:

i'd better get the glitter out, cos you cant polish a turd :P

^^^ plus it is the SAU:SA club tow bitch - has gotten MANY of us out of trouble - day and night. Matty is a true champ in that regard :D:thumbsup: - he often brings and shows it in club displays at various car shows - some of the country shows it gets more attention than our magnificent machines :puke: .... and one show in particular a cop walked straight past a host of highly modified Skylines to pull Matty aside and take him to task over the illegality of his various spotlights, aerials, side steps and other toys .... believe it or not!

    • 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).
