hi all , my head is about to explode ,iv built an rb30det over the last year or so ,originally intended for an r32 gts4 skyline but then i changed my mind as the car was costing too much to get on the road to begin with, after lots of cash and frustration id had enough so i bought a vr berlina to put it in for something different , now im very confussed , one of them has to go but i dont know which heres what will be done to both once on the road.

vr berlina:

respray in original color , dark green

rb30 fitted with twincam head

t51r turbo

maybe sc14 supercharger to get it movin

4.11 full spool

statesman dash and caprice seats ,carpets and door cards (already fitted)

ve v6 brake upgrade

ve stockies or stato rims

fully manualised turbo 400 with transbrake

r32 gts4:

respray matte black

fit rb30

gt3540 turbo

already has coilovers ,hicas lock bar ,adjustable everything

starcorp tracer 2 rims (already fitted)

half cage

blue/black leather retrim

r33 gtr brake upgrade with dba rotors

very strong clutch

my dilemma is i could have either car at this state with the same amount of effort and although an rb30det vr would be cool the r32 would also be a cool car

further down the track nitrous and a spool 3.4 stroker kit will be added , hav the nos havnt got the stroker kit yet.

im just really confused and after peoples opinions

research has been done ,all is legal , same emissions , no holes cut blah blah , the car is a streeter , weekends friday nights ,drags and burnout comps if vr drags and track days if 32

Tell me when you register it if you use the VR.

Mark.

so you think you can legally fit a 3.4lt Frankenstein Nissan motor into a Holden, add a massive turbo AND a supercharger, run a spool'd diff, nitrous and a transbrake, and somehow make all this legal?

    • 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).
