hehe westy cops are as dumb as the residents :D after all they are the prized members their community has to offer.

And you'd have to be pretty dumb to drill extra holes in your rim etc... kudos to them for cracking down. If you know how to modify your car properly n not make it a PSSSST fullsick westie boost machine then I'm sure you won't get a ticket in the mail.

i think we should all plan a 10-15minute interval hit of the phone lines on the above number.. and concuss the fu(k out the cops.. but nowadays the vic cops not only make ther moola from speeding fines & prostituting themselves to bracks, their also making some "key-ash" on the side for themselves.. so maybe we need to have an SAU fund, where we could donate to their well being so if anyone displaying an SAU sticker gets off scott free :)

"blower valves" that allowed unburnt gases to escape without being recycled into the engine... :confused:

WTF does that have to do with the price of fish in China??!? I believe that, at last check, I exhale unburnt gases that are not recycled when I breathe out... admitedly if i was to go to the pits, my emissions would probably fail ahahahaha

hey dark, good to see ya back mate. There was a thread started not long ago about a trip to a hospital?? i didn't get details, anyways, hope all is well.

and that is great piece of comical writing! blower valves, 10sec 0 - 100, fires under bonnets, tacho's making cars go faster, drilling holes in rims?? wtf?? maybe they meant exhaust??

it's quite scary what comes out of the mouth of some police ppl.

If a Sen-Constable doesent know wtf he is talkin about with regard to cars, u cant expect the rest of the wankers under him to know any better.

Also sounds like the juro that wrote the article knew wha the pig was saying was BS and just kept all his quotes in there to make him look more stupid.

Someone write a letter to the editor pointing out all the BS the cop said about taking 18 seconds to get to 100 for a normal family car, and blower valves having nothing to do with exhaust gases.

Did it actually say "Waverton" or is that your typo dARK?

typo :)

my bad.. fixed now.. :)

yep, thats what i thought... because whenever the sen-constable states a fact like that.. he leaves the quotes in, heh..

still no idea why someone would drill holes into a wheel.. makes no sense

dark u should write in to the editor staing u r 17 years old and still dont have a licence, yet you know more about these apparent souped up cars than a senior sargent that is trying to enfoce things he doesent even understand. Also u could add in the comment that the sargent might still think he is living in the 1950's when family cars take 18 seconds to get to 100km/h and not 2004.

Seriously - have any of you stopped for one second to think that maybe just maybe the REPORTER got the facts wrong - maybe the jotted notes were misread?

Cause I dont believe that there is a Sen Constable out there that thinks family cars take 18s to get to 100km/hr. It sounds to me more like dodgy reporting that article.

    • 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).
