All this talk..

oh wait...

no action :P

j/k

:bonk: ... i take back all those nice things i was saying about your car. All i have is talk, i dont even own a car, dont you think its funny that noone in Victoria has ever seen my car:(

I shoudl be good to go for Phillip Island on 13/14th November. Waiting to hear back re-vacant positions.

Yeh it was a great day, it was great to get some sun:)

LOL, highlight of the day was the last few laps with Gareth giving the R33s some curry drifting onto the straight each time. I was handling not being out there until i saw his R32 tearing it up:thumbsup:

I'm spewing, i helped him bleed his brakes (for the third time) then headed home before the final session and missed it. I'd already turned a lovely shade of pink so hadda piss off before i went completely lobster!

Good day though, and great turnout, on the non-Skyline front I'd have to say the Ferrari 355 going down main straight and sounding for all the world like a F1 was a big highlight.

Yep - semi's are cheater tyres. Also - several of those guys were running cheater turbo's.

Look at the biggest cheater of them all however - he also has cheater brakes, cheater bonnet, cheater wing, even cheater fuel!

But god dammit - I hope one day I can cheat as good as he does. :D

Just off the topic (a bit) but incidentally, was on my way to work this morning, loud, low, no front plate.

Police drive by slowly in traffic, look at the car, look at the front and no plate, look at me, keep going :confused: see what happens when they see a guy wearing a suit?

If I'd been wearing my weekend get abouts, I bet the sirens would be on and I'd been taken down

How do you figure:confused:

:D Your just making excuses beacause it pulled away after you :cough: let him pass:)

I waved him past me on first corner when i was half on the grass and trying to get back into 3rd gear while doing 60km/h. You can ask him if ya dont believe me :(

He was in the 1.35's also most of the day like me.

Where do we find the offical times on the net?

Apparently he put down a 1.31 in the final session.

Hey Marcus,

Do you live around Richmond?  I see your car up and down Vic St a fair bit

I live in Camberwell, and drive down Vic street to work every morning (work in the city :D) where's the wave / honk? what are you driving?

followed you down on the SE Arterial on Sunday morning

Umm... was I behaving myself or being an ass? I have an explanation for that if I was an ass - some clown was tailgating my mate who was following in a red 206, so we played with them all the way to the springvale rd exit... poor bugger... didn't know what was going on!

That, my friend, is the quote of the day.

It's good to see you in good spirits mate.

Look im not fussed anymore, stressing about it aint going to change what happened. There is always tomorrow.

BUT you my friend, you take the champion of the week award, driving down the pits with the ciggie hanging out your mouth like the champion athlete you are:thumbsup:

Then when the cookie crumbed you seemed to be in pretty good spirits considering. Hope it all comes together for you.:D

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • 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
