hell yea!!! first try?

Nah 4th time lucky. Well I went there 3 times in one day, the kept winging about the exhaust height. I couldn't do it properly on Monday, so got a big ol' hammer and bashed it flat. They really didn't like that, so yeah don't do that.

Ended up having to re weld the back half of the pipe, they were happy after that. One dude there seemed to think that I had put restricter plates in the exhaust, because having a 3" pipe go into a tiny pee shooter muffler does nothing to make it quiet (Idiots, goes to show how much they actually know). Another guy asked me if it did have the plate, I went full retard and gave him a blank look and said I don't know what a restricter plate is. So that seemed to work, they stamped the paperwork and I was on my way!

Order More Braided lines. I've got sooo many parts on the way now. Though i think the size i ordered for the catch can will be too small. We will find out.

Finally got my car past the pits this afternoon.

Now to put adjustable arms back on and get an alignment (where is capable of aligning fairly low cars?)

Good stuff! Try the guys are capital steering, they are great. Also I'll have to drop your owners manual past at some point.

What did i do to my car today.............

Gutter rash on the Volks. >_<

NOOoooo!!! That sux. :(

Well I just drove mine (33) to the Servo, Filled up and checked tyre pressure.

First time I've driven it since the weekend. Wow!

Jeremy, if you think you need 250kw to Enjoy, try driving something lesser for a week. It's all Relative.

Manual is weird. :D Suspension Feels like it's worth Thousands, Brakes are Awesome and Power is :woot:

Still... I love Both the lines as they have VERY different Characters.

Finally gave the 33 the Vac it has been needing for Oh So Long...

Can't have Mum 'n' Dad covered from head to toe in MDF dust now can we? :laugh:

hmmmm... I wonder if they've ever been from 0 to 100 in 6 seconds?

Looking forward to the Drive to Orange and back. :D

Must check fluids etc... Consider it done also.

fitted a high flow, injectors, ecu and tapped a thread for the MAP sensor and IAT sensor and took it for a tune. Hopefully all goes well over there. Hate the feeling that something wont go as planned.

With all those stock parts in I was running like 150kw haha got my power back and was like YEAHHHHHHH. But no job - no 250kw

I have some volks from 97 or 98 that came with my car, looks like ray Charles tried to parallel park it. Now I have the lmgt4's I think ill fix them up and paint them a stupid colour.

Looked at my door because it is very loose even when closed. Found it keeps the interior light on so I got out some sticky tape and made sure the door light thing is kept pushed in haha

Not sure how to fix the door, it seems to be sagging from the hinge :(

    • 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).
