Hello forum members, got this idea from a few SAU members on the last cruise I made to megalong (thanks), since the last cruise turned out great and a few sau'ers came along I thought i would post it up here again.... so here it is....

What: MCM - Sydney to Robertson Pie Shop Cruise

When: Sunday 8th of September 2013

Meet Up: KFC Carpark - Casula Home Depot Centre Crossroads - Camden Valley Way

Meet Time: 9:30am

Leave Time: 10:30am

Bring the Following - UHF Radio (will be on channel 16) - Full tank of fuel - good attitude and happy smiles - cameras and go pros - money for pie shop

Route: We will meet up at the KFC car park in Casula off Camden valley way. We will then head down the hume highway till we then come up to Picton Road, we will follow that through to the Mount Keira Pass (few twist and turns here). we will then turn onto the F6 Freeway aka Princess Hwy and follow that down to the Illawarra Hwy through the Macquarie pass (this is where the fun begins lots of twist and turns) we then arrive at the Robertsons Pie Shop at the end of our destination.

Rules for this cruise: As with any cruise, no hooning, no burnouts and no wreckless behavior. Please behave on the day as we don't the boys in blue to show up or for anyone to loose their license or car smashed on the day.

As before there will be other various forums coming aswell....

    • 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).
