Kabab with cheese,

   OK What needed to be done.

Brake pads have to be Standard $1000 per pair or borrow some like I did.

Zorst & header pipe has to be standard, I bought a STD one $700 from turbo back. I can hire the STD one out to any R34 GTR owners if they get nicked by the RTA or need it for complicance $50 per week.

Suspension. I had the STD springs and sustension put in the back of the car when I bought it. I now have for sale a 500km old HKS hypre Max II for an R34 $1600.

Wheels and tyres. Need to be STD so I borrowed a set of R34'swheels and borrowed the STD size tyres $150 with all the work.

Air box borrowed the STD airbox.

On top of that the windscreen part numbers did not match up so I had to put a new STD windscreen in $400

The normal compliance stuff like fluids,  the complier looked after.

Once it was registered I had some mods done to it, he he! The Zorst, pods and wheels went back on.

Other then the 5 months it took it was easy!!!!!!!!!

Anyway, what are peoples thought on changing my log on or should I simply stay

Oz GTR97V?

Only with cheese oh come on man the works!!!

Sweet jesus thats alot of work but worth it :D It sounds like you holding onto the stock bits :D hopefully i will be contacting you about renting em ;) in the near future..

I have a spare set of stock front brake pads for any R34 GTR ~ 1/99 onward for sale if anyone needs them. Almost full meat left. $250 (save $750 :) )

They are currently just sitting around at home as I bought them in case i needed them for compliance.

Looks better in the flesh and those wheels are tough. Test drive well no not me yet although two of my mechs did today, and they both said VERY nice, which is hard for them to get excited sometimes. Will enjoy your company on the Sydney tracks next year Paul. YOu have worked hard and very happy for you. Blitz you got to get one soon.

Yeah, I currently have MADGTR on there, although Im not sure about changing the good old OzGTR. I might ask the admin people if they can simply change my name by removing the 97V off the back.

    • 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).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
