Hey everyone. I enjoyed the cruise - thought it was just right given the conditions. Thanks to Adz that did a great job infront.

Also - I was at The Pub. Got there about 9:30ish I guess and left about 10:30 as I didnt see anyone.

I didn't join the cruise, glad it went well. I went to the Pub @ Crown just after 9:30, but didnt see any of the Vic SAU people that i've met.. damn there were some nice looking chicks in the side room! :( Andrew, where were u ??

We should have another social meet up soon, maybe just go for drinks... The Pub is a good central venue.. but I dont mind going somewhere else. :(

The Pub sucks. (just IMO) Its more the whole Casino thing really.  

I was leaning against that big bench watching the footy almost right in the middle.

wtf... I walked past there at least twice, didnt see you! who else was with you? there was a group of guys there drinking and yelling watching the AFL game that was showing on the plasma screens.

Oh well. I like going to Crown but i suppose everyone likes different scene's.

It was good to catch up with some of you again and also put some more faces to other users. Pity about the conditions but everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Next time Nismoid's coming i'm wearing my snow goggles and a gasmask. :jk:

Snowman, when i left i thought you were all arranging your route to crown? It sux you were the only one there. Being an outer suburban bumpkin getting pissed at Crown would have been a nightmare for me to get there and home.

It wasnt too bad - I was there with Gerald and was dropped off my the Mrs. She had gotten about 75% of the way home before she got a call to trun around and come back and get us! LOL. She's a good girl!

She is a good girl - looks like the training is complete! Next time might try and scum a lift and have my mrs pick us up.

    • 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).
