Probably wouldn't cost a huge amount to be fitted. If/when I get mine, I'll probably just do it myself, unless it requires some weird tool that I don't want to buy.

Wait, SK said I was spot on... the SAU God of Advice said my advice was right. :D I feel all dizzy... :(

same as the brake lines... doesn't flex, more pressure forced onto/into clutch operation. Better feel, slightly easier to move. For $70, hard to say no.

Yeah, made sence last nite when my mate said.

"cable clutch no, hydrolic yes"

Sciby, your talken as if you have already fitted them :).

Brakes/clutch were tested servierly this weekend and they came up trumps! :).

Went through the "Black Spur (Victoria: 134 corners in 37km :D)" and had no loss of pedal feel. My completed handling upgrades worked floorlessly, maintaining accurate feel and controll. The only weak point was the tyres (Hankook: Ventus) as they started to faulter towards the end of the extreme conditions, but they even held up remarkably well considering the punishment.

I've been considering the Maltech lines since I saw them at the the Drift Nationals at Calder. How much would it cost to have them fitted? I'm sick of the spongy feel of my 11 year old factory lines...

They directly fit/replace your existing lines. So if you can take the old ones off, you can fit these on.

It was alot of fun bleeding the lines with my mechanic, especially the clutch line. Damn my arms and left leg were sore :).

Sciby, your talken as if you have already fitted them :D.

Heh, I have... by proxy... :P my uncle fitted a set to his formula libre car, he espoused the virtues of them, so while I don't have them on the ScibyLine, I know what they do, and that we should all buy them. :D

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
