ran 11.07 at 119 mph at jambo against squizz to just get the win.. good racing ...

good news is i was on the limiter 50 mtrs before the line in 4th gear...oops...

my new federal 275-40-17s tyres were hooking up great all day 1.64 best 60ft......

was a great few days at jambo...

At least you found 4th gear, read your timeslip and check my mph, can you say caosting in nuetral :P And yes I swore, alot :D

Happy to be beaten by a fellow 'Liner though. Had a top day.

Squizz, invite them on the forum and get em to post their times. At least they'll have a timeslip to upload........AHEM......squizz.......COUGH!!!

Adrian

I'll have my Jambo slips uploaded tonight for you, keep your pants on.

thanks leewah... its all great to see it all come togther as you know...

the main prob with the r34 gtr is its so heavy....car has now run 11.0 4 times now so its up to the monkey driving to get perfect gear shifts and launch then it will all happen...

cheers....

ran last night and so so close. 11.07 at 120mph... 11.04 at 127.8mph and the real bummer is an 11.00 at 127.5mph... the track was pretty average so a better track will bring the result i am after....

any way seems to run consistant times on the bright side...ha ha..

Hi Mark, please tell me your running those times on semi slicks? Coz if your doing those times on street tyres in a heavier 34model, and complaining about that .0001 for a 10, you deserve a big :slap: .. for being too hard on yourself. !!!Thats awesome!!!

running 275-40-17 FEDERAL street tyres..... great tyres for street and track..and cheap price about 270.00 each i think.....nitto tyres would put me into the 10s but are 400 to 450 bucks each and not able to run them in the new sport compact rwd awd street classes...so whats the point....

still running 6 speed getrag . seems cool so far has done a lot of drag strip work....

thanks guys...

    • 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).
