He's got a point, rust is rust. I don't see anything wrong with people knowing what they're buying.

If you are not hiding anything, there is no reason to get worked up.

Unfortunately rust there most likely means it's the result of poor prep work when spraying that area and possibly poor treatment of rust there prior to the spray.

This is why I would never buy a car with a respray, you will never know what has been hidden till a few years later.

That being said 13.5k plus a good rub back and new paint you will have a tidy GTR for 16k.

Good luck

fair enough buyers need to know what they buy, but implying im untruthful and saying there is rust in the car .. that can be blown up into a million different things .. i wonder how he knew about this rust ? did santa tell him ??

I think any car of the same age you will find some sort of rust!

I remember hearing of certain cars having rust within the first 5 years!

Falcon i think might have been one with rust on the pillar? Could be wrong!

Car is still a bargain. Pm sending now mate.

Don't worry about this guy anyway, Much more vital information has been left out of for sale threads in the past.

Real nice car and screw the rust critics....

Rust is common on any area of seams and rubber seals. As water over times is absorbed into the rubber causing the metal Around or under to swell and the paint onto to rise.

This is also very common on sunroofs, Door seams, window seams ect.. Buyer’s don’t need to be PUT off your car by you being OVER honest about the car when advertising. You are selling the car and making an attractive sale. If people want it,... COME LOOK AT IT! If u don’t like it shut up walk away and be happy ur money is still in " your pocket".

As far as it goes i love your car mate! Im trying to sell my Hilux to buy a 32 GTR! Hope u still have it when i sell my hilux!

I agree, you're bloody nuts! I'm tempted to buy it and I've only just sold my R32 GTR last November for $21k haha

    • 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).
