THE SHOW off the track will be just as exciting as the one on it at the 2015 Liqui-Moly Bathurst 12 Hour.

Organisers have announced a new partnership with Raceline Events to promote a spectacular auto show at the February 6-8, 2015 Liqui-Moly Bathurst 12 Hour Event that will fill Harris Park with colour and excitement across the weekend.

To be known as the Bathurst 12 Hour Supershow, the two-day Event will be a full-on show and shine complete with judging and a prizes – with presentations to be held during the lunchtime shift of the 12-hour race on Sunday.

The Supershow is expected to attract a huge array of competitors from around Australia that will fill Harris Park with colour, noise and excitement for fans at the circuit.

“We are excited to welcome Raceline Events to the Bathurst 12 Hour and are looking forward to the first ever Bathurst 12 Hour Supershow,” Event Director James O’Brien said.

“The Bathurst 12 Hour weekend is already a feast for the senses of motoring fans thanks to the wide variety of cars in the 12-hour itself and the three support categories racing on Saturday. This will just add to the variety for fans trackside.

“We pride ourselves on offering the best value tickets in Australian Motorsport for race fans and this will just make the experience even better, with plenty to see and do off the track as well as on it.”

Applications are already open for the show, with the first 150 entrants to receive a bonus parade lap of the full 6.213km Mount Panorama circuit on Saturday – between Bathurst 12 Hour qualifying sessions.

“Plans are also underway for a monster Supershow cruise potentially involving as many as 12 car clubs from four states and the ACT converging on Bathurst on late Friday,” said Raceline Events Ian Badock.

“It is expected that the Bathurst 12 Hour Supershow will attract participants from as far afield as Adelaide, Brisbane and Melbourne, as well as closer regions like Canberra and Sydney.

“The Supershow will cater for all makes, models and types of Street machines, Sports Cars and Supercars – plus race cars. It will also include a working Dyno for entrants to test the power of their machines, plus an Audio show that will attempt to match the volume of the on-track 12-hour product."

All entrants receive two weekend passes to the Liqui-Moly Bathurst 12 Hour Event with the first 150 to take part in the parade laps on Saturday.

Did I just hear the Mayor of Bathurst say something about building a New Circuit? :O

You did.

Pretty sure it's been in plan for a few years now but they're keeping it on the down low.

Not sure how residents of mount panorama feel about having a permanent track. It would mean a lot of noise pollution.

so so fantastic ,been watching all day,the gtr cleaned up cars worth too or three times as much.The Japanese driver is a legend.The other too young ones did an awesome job as well.Time for a celebration vino. :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

    • 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).
