Anybody that hasn't gotten you DVD, please PM Matboy. He's a top bloke and I'm sure would get right on it.

As for number, the number of spots is set by Sydney Dragway. Not by SAU. They have a VERY fixed format and cost structure. But thanks for the suggestion.

Wednesday Night off-street drags = $50 for approx 5 runs = $10 per/run

SAU:NSW off-street drags = $200 for approx 50 runs = $4 per/run with no waiting time and a free lunch.

I know which i'd prefer to attend...

Nice pic, El ;)

As Eric said, the numbers and conditions are all set by Sydney Dragway and it's a "take it or leave it" proposition.

Wednesday night street meets have a maximum of 180 cars for the night. With only 4.5 hours of racing, you would be very lucky to actually get 5 runs in on the night.

Couldn't agree more, Benm. I was like a kid in a candy shop at the SAU drag day :D :D :D Got dizzy doing so many laps :D

The only downside is that it's not on every week like Sreet meets :D

When's the next one? ;)

Outsiders point of view, but why wouldn't you organise a day with double the amount of cars, half the price, and maybe 50 runs instead of 100??

Nobody realistically wants to run a million times, or pay excessively for a drag day. Bigger numbers would be a better day socially too.

Would love to! Shame its not up to us (or anyone who hires the facility)

WSID have a minimum 40 and maximum of 50 entrants - no negotiating.

Don't be shy people, if You've got any favorite shots post them up here with your tales of triumph and victory! If any one hasn't got their disc by friday afternoon please PM Me. there were a few addresses that needed be sent to the CIA to be decoded. Hopefully I got them all right in the end though.

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately that time of year is gone already...

We've locked in the 2nd of June with Sydney Dragway.

Details will be up in a couple of months so people can start paying, but so far, keep that date free... ;)

    • 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).
