Your car is inspiring :cheers:

I'm starting from scratch again, got myself a stock-ish R33, well I'm stripping off all the aftermarket parts I don't want then I'm going to slap what I want on. Money Pit Version 2.0 lol

Hope so mate, it's an addictive hobby but well worth it in the end....

I looked at many setups on here and envied them... I wanted what they had... I researched pretty hard and started buying bits, unfortunately I didn't realise when I buy a vital bit there is generally 2 or 3 others that are needed to support it.... Long story short, I learned the hard way and although I am yet to drive the car, the money has justified itself in a figure and video..... I approached JEM 2 years ago with a plan... I was a dreamer I guess, had already purchased the turbo off Ryan so had a start, in 2 years, not at any stage did JEM abandon my plan or thoughts, they were patient and professional, and when the booking time came I handed by pride and joy to them, never thought it would turn our so well... They are amazing and the car is amazing!!!

If you have a 33 then look at "run-it-hard" as he has all sorts of goodies cheap.... Go

Nuts mate!!! I love skylines and more

Mods makes them even better

nice work... your spec list and mods is pretty much identiacal to what my neo powered s14 was when it was an all neo set up.. made 360 rwkw also.. was unreal! Motor would still be going today if it wasnt for stupid oil cooler line failing on track :(

hahahah well said, this is my 3rd RB powered car. I have a feeling this one is going to be cream of the crop for me. Just like the human evolution chart, from apes to humans.

I'm still an ape :woot: But this is my first RB powered car and i am happy to keep it for a long time, fingers crossed i can post in this thread for a long while yet reporting it has survived!

I LOVED the sound of that setup, it was intoxicating, was a sad day at the Creek when you reported that failure :( Thanks for answering my painful PM's whilst i was making cam choices, it was hard to find someone with first hand experience. The other 34 JEM did ran 345rwkw on the same boost but had a straight through exhaust so i think it shows that the cams helped peak HP as well as the setups were damn close to identical apart from cams.

The car has just gone through the complete flex tune and is now running on 98 i believe... I should probably have dyno sheets soon...

Cheers guys!

Have you got any idea what it's putting out on 98?

Be more then 300 obviously, but it'd still be good to know

98 on low boost was only 311rwkw I think... Was about 17-18psi I think... E85 made more than that on 15psi :P

Here's my old shit box lol

My heavy right foot will put it to the ground, the tyre will then go to the sky :)

E85 makes a huge difference... If only I had your GTX the power figure would have gone higher... But wank factor aside, 360 is a but silly on street tyres.... Can't wait :D

and you got heaps of bra's and panties thrown at the car too huh?? hahahaha you were like justin bieber driving by haha

If he had an Atmo BOV then of course...

Keep it on topic guys, 300 or GTFO :P finally I can say that lol

    • 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).
