Hes talking about painting the metal bits zoix.

Ska about the skyline sticker, I'm getting brembo decals laser cut soon so I can probably get one made up with the same order.

I dunno if we can colour any more bits than that without the fitting neons though. :flower:

Ska you want skyline stickers? I'm getting some brembo decals laser cut next week so I can probably get em made up with the same order.

for future ref: i have cherry red on my maroney.. look decent. Otherwise maybe silver could be nice. Even yellow if you wanted very bright. I think they look best as either a complementary (different shade of your cars colour), or contrasting colour (otherside of the colour wheel)

I am in possession of twoquik's car so it (and its owner) will be meeting there sunday :). If you do see it, it will have have 50 cops following it also cannonball-run style (joke). And ooo, yes I saw the interior just before and its quite nice. I'll bring my camera.

Plus I was going to buy some cut & polish and give that a go, plus I washed my beast yesterday, and lo and behold it's now raining, beautiful, plus to top it all off, my mother is coming for brekkie in 30 mins :D Now I dont have an excuse to get her to leave ..................... what a great start to this day it has been! :)

Bummer, and I was so looking forward to adding more to my Team Green Rice beast, oh well got another date in mind?

Could be next saturday? Otherwise it'll have to wait for a while.

We could also just do twoquicks car and your car's bits at my place since were all in Brisbane!

I'll be there, problem is that I do not have preds number to call him to make sure he comes, and do not have strutto's number as he was coming to fit some SACF's to someones car plus I was going to borrow his tools to remove the wipers and indicators, cause I have no tools!

Bah I am going for a drive down there and if no one turns up the so be it, I am pretty sure owned is coming, not to do anything though, he just wants an excuse to drive :D but he'll most probably be there, it has stopped raining but is a bit overcast and looks like it will probably be scattered showers all day, but I'll be there.

No point in you driving all the way down If I am the only paying customer, I know pred will most probably bring twoquiks car, so there's two, up to you though..........

    • 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).
