I'm interested:D A friend of mine sells racing equipment, so I'll see what price he can get something similar for:D

yeah see if he can get some good prices cause id rather organise a group buy locally cause its easier.

no interetsed as i just bought 2 but can give sum info, i got two sparco, which are made by sabelt the same as in your pics, 3'' vertical strap 2'' waist, with quick release buckle( the only way to go) and eye bolts and quick release coupling as in your pics and there were jsut under 400 each inc GST trade price, but there are many many different models with different options wehic can make a big difference in price, anyway the sabelt make very good harnesses so you cant go wrong

try IKD or International Karting Distibuters they import sparco so you can compare the price between the two brands

Yeah, the guy can get the SABELT stuff, he's the agent for GMP which bring it in. Price will depend on how many we get. What number shall I get him to calculate the price on?

well depending on price there is about 8 people in vic that want em... post it up in WA section and see if people in there are interested too...

This is the harness I want.

:)

so u want the same ones that are in the pic snowy?

well i think paul is getting us a number of prices so we'll see what happens

Can these be taken out easy so the normal seat belt can be used for normal road use? as harnesses are a pain the the ass when driving to work etc.

Doesnt vicroads say it is illegal to actually use harness on the street. they dont mind having them in the car tho. just need to use lap sash. go figure. think i read someone got fined for it too, which made no sense, as youd expect them to be as safe or more so.

is what i recall.

Ok, spoke to my guy, he's able to supply us with Sabelt 5pt harnesses with quick release catch for $350 for a group buy of 10 or more. I think this is a decent price, but let me know what you think. This is FIA approved till 2009.

He can also get us cheaper ones, still FIA approved, but there not as nice as the namebrand ones.

Cheers

Paul

shit now thats a bargain!!

perhaps we should be puting links in everyones state... we aiont going to get better than that! :D

    • 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).
