S A U - N S W Texikhana - Queen's Birthday Holiday Monday


Recommended Posts

If you're only looking to do Texi events, go AASA - less bullshit and it's cheaper.

edit::

I should have responded to everyone by now that's emailed - I'll figure out numbers tonight.

This, but if you want to do hillclimbs and certain tracks you will need CAMS ;)

Yep, got it mate - you're on the list.

5 spots left people - get in quick! I'm reserving one at the moment for Phill given he's registered interest and was at the last one, but he better get to it ;)

I'll also be checking all payments tomorrow, so if things don't 100% line up or if I can't see a payment, I'll shoot you a message - I've been wrong before because I'm blind or something, so if you've paid and I call you out on it, just let me know the date you paid and I'll probably find it when I'm not having a "boy look" :P

When there's two spots left, please post before sending off payment+forms - I'll do a first-in-best-dressed for that, and let you know to go ahead, or if we're already full.

so I have to go and buy a helmoot.

does it have to be full faced?

I wouldnt buy this one, but is it allowable? It says it meets the regulation listd in the never done texi thread.

also, If my dad decides to venture down and be a 2nd driver in my car does he count to the limited spots? or is the limit on cars not multi drivers? His work doesn't allow him to know if he can take the day off until the last minute.

Doesn't have to be full faced, just has to adhere to regulations - the ones in my thread might be a bit old, so on the CAMS site:

http://docs.cams.com.au/Manual/GeneralRequirements/GQ05_Schedule_D.pdf

Just has to be AS1698 standard.

Another spot down - two more open left! From this point please register interest in the thread first - given I won't be at my laptop to immediately respond, it might be a little while between post and confirmation.

EDIT:::: We use AASA for our regulations - still same helmet regulations, but here's the link anyway:

I am John, Nick is my friend. He was asking about the two remaining spots today - one for him, one for me (or at least that's what he told me). With Nick considered, is that spot still available? If so, could you please hold it until tomorrow so that I can pay?

Edited by Four - Twelve

Yeah mate - okay, Nick has paid for both of you apparently, so that's all booked!

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

EVENT IS FULL!

We'll be taking names for reserves - the listing of which will be going up at some stage soon, so we can organise things from there.

If you're unable to attend, you'll need to contact people on the reserves list - I'll have more information on how to get that all happening as we go forwards.

Keep up to date with things here:

    • 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).
