anyone interested in an australia day cruise(thurs 26th jan)??? im up for somthing if someone is willing to help organise, im not to sure of good cruise points down here, im from nsw, only been here a few yrs and out of the scene.

also, i might make another thread for this, but is there an interest for a "stagea forum" like not using SAU, and actually having a stagea club type scenario.... im not sure that there would be enough activity though. I run a pc shop and do a fair bit iof programming and can provide domain, hosting, and the technical side of things if there is other interested in helping out with moderation, gfx, layouts, tech info, etc etc.

throw me a pm and if there is enough interest, ill make a new thread.

Cruise idean on OZ day or sometime in Jan sounds good.

Probably get idea of cruise points from previous skyline and stag cruises.

Regarding the stag forum....one already exists 'http://www.m35stagea.info' and does not get used as much as SAU section.

We are going to orgainse one after australia day to upper yarra dam..BBQ AND CRUISE...Spoke to coparts(dennis)about it the other night there will be a thread done sometime around xmas with meet points with choice of days,travel through healsville and warburton ..could be open to other cars as well not only stageas..as our numbers are not that great..will be posted in vic events section and stagea forum

Thanks vic stagea mick

good stuff, sorry ive dropped off a bit lately, i run my own business and its gotten rather busy in the last 2 weeks, havent had much time to help organise this cruise. im still all in for australia day, i might have another cruise coming up before this one, its with another club, but im helping organise a day cruise down to portsea, not sure on dates, might even leave it till early feb so it doesnt interfere with this one. It will be an open cruise and be very happy to see some other stag drivers come along.

anyway, if you still want some help to organise ausday coparts and mick, send me a pm with some details and ill jump on the band wagoin with you guys and help with organising maps/food/drinks/ whatever u need.

cheers.

Mitch

    • 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).
