Yep im down but lets see if we can find a good price.

The Eastern boyz had one of these a while back and i think they got em for around $80 with hfree.

For use in all cruises

But i think will be VERY Handy this trip on Weekend :)

Ok things to consider:

1 Price

2 "name" ie quality

3 Line of site Range, they seem to be about1-3kms

4 Accessories, some u can get car Kits and hands free, chargers, some dont

5 Price :P

A few names off top of head, Kenwood Digitor Uniden Im going to look in "Jaycar" and "Dickies" for prices

Any other input would be good!

i went down south last weekend, saw two sets of cops with radars, two speed cameras and two traffic cop cars. Thankfully it was my lucky night and didn't hit any of them, not so for the supra tt and ss commonwhore i saw get pulled over.

anyway, i'd like to thank the guy in the M5 who had a visble radar dector. i just followed him from the city, braked when he did and it was smooth sailing untill he bailed! but man could that thing move when he wanted it to :burnout:

respect! *seriously considering a decent detector for long trips!*

:P

or just don't speed? what's easier?

I think the Unidens from Dick smiths are better.

Make sure it is 500mw which is highest power output before u need a license. Cost a lil bit more

Also i think the sound quality is a bit better than the Digitalk model from Jaycar hehe and the $128 model has got VOX saves on batts..

Err...I may know someone who can get a very good deal for you from Dick Smith's:D :P as some of you would know. Tell me which model you want. If you want my advice - don't worry about all the accessories - if you want something more comprehensive, get a vehicle mounted unit (they start at about $200) as these put out a full 5 watts & with an external antenna the range is faaaarrrrrrr better than a handheld (& you still don't need a licence).

Anyway - over to you guys. I got the week off work so i can probably get stock by Friday without any problems.

Cheers,

Mike.

I think uniden is pretty good with som enice features...etc.

I went to Garden city Dickies the guy said it will cost abour $128 bux...etc.etc.

but I have feeling that micko will do us better price :P heheh :uh-huh:

so people make decision at least by Wednsday!

cheers

Joe

Alright fellas - the best I can do on the UH-042's is $93.86 each. This price is normally for a purchase of 100 units or more, so we need to get around 10 people to committ to the buy so that we can make it look reasonable.

There isn't much stock in the state, but i should be able to muster up what you need.

let me know ASAP so that i can make sure that you get them for the trip on the weekend.

Cheers,

Mike.

*sniff*:P everyone bags the poor old supra:burnout:

Whats the external mic worth like 10-20?

Lets just do this thing today or tomorrow, we might get four but we will not get over 10 (paid for) in the next couple of days. U know how some ppl are when it actually comes to shelling out:rolleyes:

    • 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).
