Conservative 1.42.x

With the AO50's 1.40.x

Evo's lap pretty quick out of the box around Winton, generally.

Tampered generally have 4-5 groups, sessions are 15mins (too long imo, but anyway). There is generally a group assigned to a forum or car club.

Like MelbS15 had a group to them selves, Chasers did the same I think.

Passenger laps all day make for great fun.

Tampered generally operate over the public holidays.

Pitty about the clutch. Tyres, long as they have tread are fine. Nanganks are still fun!

WRX club days, which SAU VIC piggy back our days, hold an event in most months.

I have 50% potenza's on ATM. Still probably better than Nangs lol.

Looked at the SAUVIC club thread. How often do you members get out on the track for the members only stuff? Really only bought my GTR to use as a club car/rare weekender, really wanting to join a club.

Not much is better than nangs...ha. Potenza's above the tread indicators will be fine.

Their is basically a track day every weekend, if you become a member and get a CAMS license you can enter most other clubs track days.

There are generally 2-3 social events a month in Summer.

Sounds good mate, I'll get my clutch sorted and join up.

What's the go with noob's? I have raced karts before but I'd still like to go through the whole noob beginner thing because you can never get to much info. Do most of the track days have a beginner tutorial style run?

Ben

    • 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).
