driver - the gtr last night u mean by kart mania? Yeh thats my friends fiance.. he removed the fuse making it RWD or something..and kicked it a bit hard.. dont think he really expected that to happen..we thought he was gonna lose it and go up the kurb.. we were sitting at the lights by kart mania watchin. Rang my friend just after it happened and she wasnt very happy with him :S

seen that 33 at the end of o'connell st last nite...........seen it around, and personally it doesnt surprise me to see the car like that (my personal opinions.......flame away if you disagree). Heart dropped a bit when i seen a skyline cut open cos i thought it might hav been one of you guys

Saw a nice silver/grey R33 sedan at Montague Farm this morning. Didn't realise it was there until I went past your mates blue WRX so didn't get a wave in, so here it is now. :thumbsup: Also saw my first gunmetal R33 Impul sedan on Regency Rd. Tried to give a wave but didn't get to make eye contact. Took the opportunity to admire it from a few different angles though, it was almost like seeing double. We missed a great photo opportunity....where's that camera when you need it!! Will try to be better prepared next time. :santa:

apparently thats a stolen car. those low life crashed it. the owner only has fire and theft insurance for it.

was workin on prospect road last week near the new shops they're building past the council chambers, sliver 33 with the plates x** 069 (i think), had SAU stickers on it bout lunchtime. I was in the worksite, stalking everyone i knew from 13m up in the air :santa:

oh yeah, and ive seen mike_ a bit lately...............more often than not (incl tonite) parked at the morphett arms. New drinking hole hey?

Working hole actually! I work in the bottlo there now.

Best job I've ever had!

That would be my friend from works impul. Hes not really into the 'car scene' as he puts it, doubt u would ever get a wave or nod or anything out of him lol

Nice car though, stock as a rock, he wont do anything to it.

yeah another guy that works there owns the 32, got a bit of a mini skyline club happenin at work, got another guy with a black 33 workin there too. They dont poser park like i do though :P 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).
