Hello All

FYI

I am arranging to have my GTR photographed - and though it may be the perfect opportunity to arrange a SAUWA photoshoot.

Dan Brady (AKA Dan The Man - long time forum member and contributor / moderator / all round good bloke ;) has opened his own photography business and has kindly agreed to lend his time and services and run the shoot for us.

Thought it would be awesome to have cars together and have some "series" pictures done

eg:

35GTR, 34GTR, 33GTR, GTR32 together.

R32 Gts4, R33 GTSt, R34Gtt, etc together.

V35, V36 together.

350Z, 370Z together.

Large group shot combined.

You get the idea

Everyone would be welcome - but cars for general photoshoot would have to be in excellent condition - cars for "series" pictures will need to be submitted for selection - ensuring we get the best cars / best outcome.

The GTR shoot I will be looking for a couple immaculate 35s, 34s, 33's and 32s. That way we can swap them around and have a series of GTR pics with a few different cars. Same for others - but will depend on interest.

A date a venue has not been set yet - will depend on how many people are keen/how much space we need - but probably looking at August/September - at least a few months away to so we have time to organise everything.

If we get a big response - we could add some food / catering to it - meet and greet - where we want to take it is up to us.

Would be great to have some awesome GTR / Skyline pics hanging in my garage - memories.

Let me know if your keen - may need some help to depending on interest.

Thanks for reading.

Dan

Didn't really get the numbers I wanted with the initial request.

I have the photographer lined up - waiting for better/warmer weather - likely late September.

I'm doing it with my car 100% - whether or not its done as a group - only time will tell.

PM me Eric if your keen and we can discuss.

    • 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).
