Haha thanks man, when you're at the bottom the only way out is up!

Drove the car to SYDNEY, from Melbourne. Got there, no issues. Got back home last night, no issues.

NEWS:
have been very busy with work/ family so didnt have much time for the car.
i did however get around to dropping it off at RP to complete the tune.
she made 265rwkw on 16psi and wouldnt take more ignition timing or boost, it feels a little lazy so hopefully some cam gears will solve that, but then again, next time we go in im hoping to have some 1000cc injectors, z32s and some cam gears and hopefully crack 350+

Cool can't wait to see the outcome!

I had to look twice at this when i was at WTAC, from a distance i was like cool another sweet 32R.

Then double taked and was like wait a second...

HAH NICEEEEEE

Pulled out the mid muffler on the car and found it was collapsed. Welded in a pipe and put it on.

1- car sounds amazing.

2- the car goes even harder, I shit myself driving it.

okay so when we moved into this house 8 years go, the garage was a 2 car garage, could physically fit two cars in there, despite it being a bit skinny, but really long.
parents decided to partition it for mums home business which she no longer operates. so she just stores her junk in there...
mums gone for 5 weeks...

its easier to beg for forgiveness than it is to ask for something. right!?
took us a solid day to knock down the wall and clean all the useless shit out, that wog parents seem to love hoarding.
now im left with a roomy garage, somewhere to keep the car nice and safe, and heaps of room for a man cave!

up next on the car is some gktech dog bones and some 324mm rotors and pads.
more on that soon.

ended up doing a very mild wire tuck, moved the front body/headlight harness around the front reo, extended parkers, indicators etc and have them all hidden, looks alot cleaner!
swapped out the airbox for a set of M's pod filters, which solved my bonnet clearance issues, and the BOVS sound amazing.
besides that, car was looking mint. drove well, besides needing new coil packs and i had just had a discussion with somebody regarding some sugar juice!
then this f**king happened
crusing along the free way, VW touregs side mirror flies off and hits my front bar. no avoiding it.
luckily the lady who was driving was awesome and offered to fix it.

UPDATE!!!

the devil r name lives on.

Launched it last night, slammed it into second and then third. Backed off and could hear a squeel. So limped the car home. About 2 min away from home, the lower control arm mount snaps clean off the subframe at about 50kms. Car almost goes into a spin, somehow kept it together and pull up.

being 2am on a saturday night, and the car still somewhat driveable we limped it home with no issues, besides what looked like demon camber on one wheel lol.

Yanking out the frame today -_-

    • 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).
