Thx mates =)

Yes, oil and water temp has been a lil bit high. Yes I have the original Nismo oil cooler. The temperature was so high because the not mapping after change from hks to garrett turbo. I also had no big radiator. And much more things... But now I have all better =) And when the car ready it will be mapped from Sky-engineering.

So, the begin of build the engine together =)

Good work of High-Import-Performance =)

And I`m thinking about a new color of the engine bay. I want to paint that which is purple in the pic

What would you say, how has the engine to look? ;)

Congrats on the win mate thumbsup.gif

Where abouts in Germany are you from?? I'm guessing Frankfurt or Koln area if you're able to get out to the 'Ring so much? I'm originally from Kiefersfelden, so haven't managed to get across to the 'Ring on my visits yet, it's penciled in for next year though! :D

Love the car by the way. The only Jap imports I've seen over there were a M35 Stagea and a 33 GTR, I must be too far out of the way :P How do you go with the salt on the roads, does it cause many problems or do you not drive the R in winter??

@Hanaldo: Hehe, thx bro =) I`m from Leipzig, in the east of Germany. So I have round about 500km to the NürburgRing Nordschleife. I`m round about three times of a year on the Ring. But we have also others tracks in germany =)

I don`t drive the car in winter ;) We have a lot of salt in winter of the streets... So you have to to spend a lil bit in protecting the underside of the car ;)

@benkoau: I have the R33 diffs because of the shorter ratio ;) So I have better accleration but less top speed. But the R33 diffs are also good for ~300km/h enough for the track =)

something that has always interested me about the nurburgring - hat is the death toll?

there is no way this form of racing would be allowed in aust, without a helmet (unfortunately)

this track is on my 'to do list' :)

for the most part its not a track, its a public toll road. you pay the toll and you drive your lap.

    • 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).
