Just curiouse to see if im the only sucker out there?

After making sure my wife knew not to throw 1 specific box out, I thought I had all bases covered. i asked her to get this box out containing a brand new gizzmo electronic boost controller, turns out she pulled the manual out and threw the rest in the bin.... Haven't been this devo'd since I blew up my turbo.

Lol any one else having these issues and is there a group buy on for newer model wives?

Bahahaha, sorry to hear mate. It's best to ban ur wife from the garage. Whilst I have never had this problem I'm sure my wife wishes I'd write my 260rs off or that It would catch fire or something. She calls my stag the never ending story!

My missus was banned from the garage, after she started dumping washing baskets and other household detritus on my farkin workbench!

I bought her a whole house to play in, I only want one room for myself.

Lol thanks Craig. Just shattering is all. I can't even stay angry at her, she rang me all emotional and crying and I couldn't even get angry or I'm the guy that made his pregnant wife cry.... I swear if they didn't have a vag we'd throw rocks at them.

Get used to it mate. Women cant help themselves, they've just gotta touch things that dont concern them. But if u move anything of thiers they lose the plot. Give it a try. Move a picture or some junk they've cluttered your house with.

Funny story on that Ray! There was a cheap arse picture that never made it onto the wall in my house.........I'd tripped over it for a little over 5 years. Anyway it ended up in my garage with a whole heap of other shit that was suppose to be moved out within a week of going in there(she took nearly 8 months and numerous arguments).

Long story short on the day when "I had" decided to reclaim man land she came out to help.......for some reason she still would not let me through the picture out even though it was never going to go on the wall.

So the conversation went a little like this after I had figured out that it didn't matter what I did she was going to end up with the shits.

First item!

Me: Can we get rid of the 2 dollar picture that I have been tripping over for 5 years and has never made onto a wall?

Wife: Noooooo!!!

Me: Why?

Wife: It might be useful one day?

Me: Your kidding arn't you?.......it's an 2 dollar POS!

Wife: Don't start me Craig we are KEEPING it!

Me: So were keeping broken shit now!!!

Wife: It's not broken and we are KEEPING it

Me: So can we throw broken stuff out

Wife: Yes

-----Foot goes through picture-----

Wife: I cannot believe you just did that arsehole!

Me: (Walking off) You have till the end of the day to move that shit out of the garage........then all the shit is going back into the house and you can deal with it!

We had our biggest garbage collection ever....and I got my garage back! :banana:

Special cuddles went on further hold...... :/

HahA made my day, and it's exactly like you

I get sick of my wife asking "why do you need all these cars bits. Stop building new cars...blah blah"

I have just rented another 8x8m storage shed beside my other 12x8m without her knowing

I can now build another car and she will not know until it turns up in the driveway in 6 months time......watch this space

my ex was like that. she had no idea how many cars i had or how much crap i had until we bought a house. the non stop nagging about spending money on cars is how she became ex mrs. new 1 stays out of the garage with the threat of spiders :D winning!!

I love this. Mrs 66 has never asked me to get rid of any (good) shit. We have a great big four Stagea garage, but there are no cars in it. We have an Art Gallery, Mrs. 66 is a really great Artist. The garage is full of frame making equipment. that is my forte!. but there is a certain amount of space for stuff. Coil overs, turbos, plennums, pipes, nuts and bolts, tubing, tools, oils etc. etc. etc. The simple necessities of life to sustain an elderly afficondio like myself. It even has a fridge XXXX

The back garage is so full of stuff that I cant get in to sharpen the mower blades. The very back shed has a BMX, a mountain bike, half an R30, most of a Sil and all sorts of Stagea bits and heaps of wheels and tyres

I live in Nissan Heaven.

    • 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).
