Drift Day - Eastern Creek - Sunday 19/09/04


Recommended Posts

Initial Drift Australia will be holding a drift event at Eastern Creek on Sunday, 19th of September, 2004. The event will be held on the Eastern Creek Skid Circuit, a concrete low friction surface.

We will be running 2 sessions. The first in the morning will run from 9am to 1pm on a wet track. This is a perfect opportunity for those wanting to "give it a go" to get out there. The second session, run from 1pm-5pm will be on a dry circuit.

You may register for either one or both of the sessions. Should you only wish to participate in one session (either wet or dry) the cost will be $60 to members and $75 to non members.

Special Requirements

As a member of CAMS, Initial Drift will be requiring that all drivers and passengers wear long sleeve shirts and pants covering ankles to wrists to neck. Appropriate footwear must be worn along with a CAMS approved helmet (any AS helmet will do).

These requirements are not open for interpretation and are ultimately for your safety (http://www.initialdrift.com.au/forums/view...php?p=6608#6608). Please ensure that you bring the necisarry gear as you WILL NOT be running without it.

CAMS Licensing

For insurance reasons all drivers must hold a current CAMS license. Should you not have a current or valid CAMS license, that is OK. Initial Drift will be issueing daily licenses for $20.

Passengers will need to purchase a Passenger Licence and this can be had for $30.

no you're not, you're doing a hillclimb in bulladelah....how about 10 October instead?

Would I be able to get some start times,info,etc for this event by any chance?

and I assume it's on the 19th of this month?

I've been wanting to go and watch one of these for ages,and have a mate in Taree who *may* be interested in competing.

:cheers:

you'll have to be a member of a CAMS affiliated car club to enter it...

if you are, drop me a PM and I can send you the regs and entry form

Well I was just going to watch :Oops: Don't think my mate's a CAMS affiliated club member :cheers: Out of interest,would a CAMS Basic (white) licence be enough,or is that only for motorkahana's,etc? I suspect you need the next one up,for closed road competition(?)

    • 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).
