when did gtr cam get the dent in his front guard? its quite large.....

Friday night after he left my place when we changed the ECu back from the Motec to standard...it is a sore spot so we will leave it at that...some farkers have no respect for others cars

So all his runs on the weekend were done with the standard ECU, so you WILL see the times come down when that piece of crap is sorted...

Thanks to all who said hello to me over the weekend, was a fun day yesterday!

I was in a really bad mood on Saturday after some ASSHOLE decided to reverse into my front right side guard whilst I was at a mates place... :D

Especially after tracing my problems with the car back to the Motec (long story)....

All in all not a bad weekend, did a 12.71 in qualifying, would have done better in two races had I not backed off & as Bob said, only a stupid mistake cost me a place in the final of ET.....

Looking forward to getting the Motec sorted & being able to run very low 12's...

Cam

was a great day, my mates GSR ran a new PB of 11.5@123mph and then went on to win the ET bracket on sunday! Was lucky the other guy broke out cause Nick stripped 3rd and 4th gear in the final. I knew i should have gone on sunday too! :P

That brown dato wagon was going a full second quicker than the last time i saw it race and was putting the rotor boys to shame with HUGE wheel stands.

Was good to see the pac mx6 running consistant low 7's, i noticed they have Tony Wedlocks crew cheif working for them which i'm guessing must be play a large part in the low times. Tony's pro stock car is one of the fastest out there and i'm pretty sure hes the current champ.

Trent for Mercury Motorsport would have to be in the running for the hand grenade award after spitting half his tailshaft clean outa his 200sx.

My mate Chris unfortunetly blew something up on the line in his 10sec dato 1200 ute, that was a shame as it was a brand new motor and the car had just been mini-tubbed to.

The kiwis impressed with new PB's for both cars, that sr20 powered gemi was awsome apart from the shopping trollie wing :D

Archies car was running well till he almost lost it right at the end of the track, they must have taken some power out cause he ran 7.5's for the rest of the day.

All in all it was a great day, huge crowd and some great racing.

    • 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).
