The June long weekend is out for me - it is the premier yearly country show event for the SAU:SA club - the Kadina car show and piss up weekend - I strongly encourage all of you V35 owners to come along - it is a huge weekend of cruising, food, booze, car show and fun!!!!

Awesome! Well I have to just make sure my work roster avoids a weekend some time!

I have the 23rd and 24th off in june. Hopefully thats far enough away that it can give you guys time to organise things around it.

I was thinking Meet at the Bay somewhere. Go along the coast to Largs Bay, Few happy snaps along with way with Vimanas DSLR and then get onto Grand Junction. Head east up to chain of ponds. Through Birdwood and Mount Pleasant. Up to sanderston, down through punthari, and end up in Mannum then plan a nice twisty route back through the south somewhere.

Sound alright?

Start time...12pm? Lunch somewhere and then dinner maybe?

Let me know

The show and shine June long weekend is for club members only Krystle, so I can't put up the details publicly, but since you are joining up anyhow, I will PM them to you :D - hopefully all of you guys are going to join up - we have lots of great events.

Yep that sounds great Sam. Only slight problem is, in future please don't put up cruise routes - (ironically given your profession) we have to be careful, as both cops and other forum lurkers do check/follow the SAU forums, and we don't want to attract the wrong attention from the boys in blue, nor the RCK tag-alongers. We are pretty safe hidden away in this sub-forum, but don't ever put up plans/cruise route publicly in other sections, as you WILL get visitors to your cruise.

Yeah no worries mate - I definitely wasn't having a go at you, just letting you know that we don't put up cruise routes for the above-mentioned reasons. The biggest one is uninvited cars coming along and acting like dickheads, then we get picked on because of it. It has happened many times before, trust me.

    • 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).
