It's quite common for most show'n'shine events to stop people leaving too early.

It was more the fact that we didn't sign anything before entering and there was very little to do that afternoon. Had we signed some papers as an entrant then it would have been different.

All driving entrants knew. Seems a bit more info to showing entrants was due. Perhaps having a greater deliniation from people showing cars to visitors / spectators.

I quite enjoyed yesterday, makes a change of pace from being bombarded with loud music and other crap to keep peoples attention. Had a nice nap in the shade while waiting for the arvo session. Bit better than being stuck up north here today with the iron ore dust again..

Fair enough, all good feedback for the organisers :thumbsup:

good day out, all in all. didnt stay for the motorkhana, although i looked over tricksters car when it was parked up, impressive mate. i would love to see you mikey and paul go head to head at barbs one day.

good to catch up with corey, the two stolen R35 GTRs were recovered. 55 K worth of damage, insurance didnt cough up the whole amount and funny thing is they left the VE clubsport most likely because it had GPS tracking.

smart khunts..

Lies! Needed more T04Z :thumbsup:

are you positively annoyed my friend?? i would ditch the twins and go single setup gt35/40r garrett, t04z would be better for a 20B and ported. the car is very capable once setup properly, old boy was lacking suspension mods and driver skillz. i assume. a short track motorkhana like that is very subjective to driver + car..

i would like to see an even playing field and a few straights, then things would get interesting. tbh the evos would destroy most of those cars on a real race track.

gt3788R is not a bad compromise between gt35 and gt40/TO4z

as for evos destroying most things there, its so much more the driver than the car, eg. Chris in his orange R32 GTR destroys all comers pretty much everywhere :yes:

I think an average driver can get in an Evo and go reasonable quick up to a point, after that its more the driver than the car , my 2c :thumbsup:

    • 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).
