Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Yeah, maybe I'll just always leave my car parked in the garage, then nothing can happen to it

:P

Seems to be working so far ;)

I use my car every week - just saying

I use mine daily.... Just saying... :P And it only breaks when I let apprentices touch it... :whistling:

I think this would have scared the crap out of me... I already thought I had to sleep with ALL the toys on the bed so they didn't feel left out let along if they actually looked like they did shit during the night... These kids will either have killer imaginations or be petrified of their toys...

cAndy! The only place I seem to be able to get an x181 is online. Are they that good that I can take the risk without trying one out?

Gimme a sec. There may be a current equivalent. The x181 is from the summer before last

Il be there on Sunday mate

Does happy laps technically count? It is taking to the track... But not proper taking it to the track... I would do happy Laps but not a proper track day, at least not in my car until she has some work done...

If you are prepared to accept the consequences of track days - then by all means

Happy laps also doesn't count :P

your words sMartie 'come out to the track ya fairy!'

Happy Laps is not just out to the track but on track!

Didn't have any issues with it, until it became difficult to buy.

I went to superlap a few years ago and one of the royal purple promo girls scarred me for life, it was horrible to see... So, so, horrible!!! Should not have worn that outfit and to make matters worse, should not have gone commando in that outfit! I pointed it out to the boys to share the burden and I think they were also scarred for life... The other one on the other hand could have sold it to me if it wasn't for her oompa looma sidekick... That right there is what I am reminded of every time I see royal purple...

Did you just turn the topic onto cricket bats?

It let me down in major ways on several occasions, Royal purple on the other hand never has. The year I went, i think 2012? One of the royal purple girls was amazing, my god the things the things I would be willing to do with her! lol

OK apparently the x181 500s is available at Greg Chappell Albion. the 500 or 700 range is about what you should be going for in Grey Nicks. The Powerbow gen X has a very similar look to it and would be a good substitute, the matrix is pretty similar too but looks a little less bottom heavy.

If you are feeling strong check out the Colossus, it reads heavy but the pick up is surprisingly good

I was at GC Albion yesterday, they only had the x181 in small mens and below sizes.

I might check out the Powerbow gen X for weights then order the x181 :)

Hahaha yeah It was 2010 I think we went, maybe 2011! One was smoking hot the other was horrible, she bought the team down :sick:

My car isn't even close to set up enough to do a "proper" track day, maybe after I get some suspension work done I might, at least then it will handle nicely and well... Less like a boat :) Happy laps on the other hand will be done on Sunday in her... I would take Zane's car out to a proper track day but he isn't happy with the setup at the moment so more than likely wouldn't let me :(

If happy laps counts then Martin is doing a track day on Sunday :P hahaha

A reliable source tells me the X181 and the Powerbow gen X are in fact the same shape. So a long sweet spot starting low and heading up to traditional centre. They are however scalloped to make them a little lighter, meaning if you hit off center you lose some power. The Matrix has a similar length middle but is not scalloped and therefore a little heavier but is more forgiving if you get one off center. I would give both a go, if you can live with the extra weight on the matrix it may be the go, if anything I wish my bat was less scalloped.

    • 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).
