Hey Guys

As I stated in my first post im only 17yro. So im still on my red ps. Meaning I can only drive my r33 on the track!

I live in Sydney, Nsw.

Whats the go with track hire or going to the track with my r33?

And whats the cost and conditions?

Do I have to do my cams licence. And if so. What exactly is it that you do for it?

A test? Or just a course to say you've completed it?

Thanks in advance.

Tyler

Tyler you need to join a cams affiliated car club like SAU NSW.

Then you can apply through CAMS for your license. As you are classed as a Junior you will just need your parent or guardian to sign the form too.

You need a L2S cams licence. See here:

http://www.cams.com.au/get-involved/competitors/getting-started

You need a car club affiliation to go with it. If only there was a Skylines club that held track days..........

SAU NSW has a track day in September... Check the events section!

Yah or you can also get a club racing license through SAU once your a member. This covers you for most of our club days including the upcoming one at SMSP and texi. I currently just have this license. But if your racing more often then a CAMS one is much better.

Does the cams licence allow you take a passenger?

Ive read on a few sites and called a few places (wakefield etc etc) and they said no passengers are allower.

How do I join SAU?

Yes.

And no.

It depends on the event. Some such as rally sprints allow you a navigator. You are allowed an instructor at times. And on some practice/ride days passengers are allowed. But it depends on the event and on what the circuit allows the event organisers to do.

Best bet would be to get a AASA. Licence to begin with only $50 I believe, doesn't require you to be a member of SAU, but highly recommend you do for cams licence and other good deals

Then go to events section and enter into SAUNSW trackday next month and bring your friends who will be able to be passengers with you during the day

And can also fill out a form to join SAUNSW on the day

Ok sounds good

Ill try get that done soon. In the next week or so. Hopefully my cars out by then. Still has to be broken in and dyno tuned so may be strapped for time.

Thanks guys

Broken in? :blink:

The cars currently at meer motorsport blacktown getting an engine overhaul.

Forged pistons

New turbo

Metal head gasket and head studs

Injectors etc etc

The lot

Was only on like 70psi on one the cylinders from running to much boost from the previous owner. We paid nothing for it though so its still a cheap car for the power its going to put out.

    • 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).
