Cheers, Sean, have you had much interest in your rig yet? Very tidy from the pics so I'm sure it won't take long to go!

saw this in chambers flat.... all i could do was open my mouth because the wheels were so fat
Good luck with sale man

Thanks mate, you didn't happen to be driving a white 35 did you? I passed one the other day just down the road.

I've had a little bit man, couple of people offering stupid amounts as they do..

It is clean i don't want to sell it lol but i need to.

Got one of those scam emails last night from someone claiming to be offshore in NZ and no phone and wants to pay by paypal hahaha.

Haha yeah I've had a few of those scammers with some previous sales. You're always going to get the few low ballers unfortunately. I'm sort of in the same boat as you, really don't want to sell but I have too haha.

Good luck with it anyway!

Matt have you been spamming your advert locally and on facebook/local pocket trader/paper etc? i reckon you'd have more luck selling it that way. That's how i sold mine, was actually through a guy that saw my ad on a local buy/swap/sell car fb page who told another guy who bought it!

but Sean, Matt is trying to sell the car with his wheels which is what brings his selling price to $26,000.....and buyers nowadays dont give a damn about wheels price....and compare costs with other cars in the market....

Thanks for the tips Sean, I have had it on Facebook/Gumtree and a couple other sites but not a whole lot really. I might start advertising a bit more to help out the sale.

Price dropped to a more realistic $23,750 ONO now ;) I've got a buyer interested at that who seems pretty keen so I will see how that goes.

    • 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).
