Body looks ok, would have to see it up close to be sure.

A nice straight shell is always worth a bit, and good to have.

Fire damage looks superficial, no real damage, weird though it looks like someone made it run again, coilpacks, blue hoses etc, no soot on them.

Well.. Today marks one year with my liner! :O and might I add, what a great year it's been. Meeting heaps of great people that also share that rb passion! :yes:

How she was when she arrived into my hands.

Lots of small changes along the way. It has been a lot of fun. Lot's of learning to be had and plenty more to come. It's funny how the more you learn the more you realise you really know nothing at all haha :/

I'm pretty happy with how things are panning out. Big performance mod to come in the very near future :woot:

And some plans I have that are purely cosmetic. Then hopefully the spending might slow down a little.... :whistling:

It's been a good one and I'm looking forward to the next :D

Congrats Chris! You have changed her alot for the better in a year. Seems longer :yes: Nice Feeling though isn't it?

My 3rd Skyline Anni was the end of last year.

I bought her an Older Sister as a prezzy. :D

Wow.... i never thought about it, nearly 4 years for me, and i still feel like a newbie to skylines.

But when im working on it, i now know all of the nuts, bolts and screws. I dont have to organize them, i know where they go.

I think the variety ways to mod a Skyline make it one of the most interesting cars ive owned.

Hence the feeling that ive only had a small taste of the magic that is possible.

Man that's crazy. What's the latest news on ETA?

Latest ETA was 3 days ago.

Same as the previous ETA that was 3 weeks ago

And the ETA before that was 6 weeks ago

I think I have been given about 4-5 ETA's and all have not been met.

Huge holdup with paperwork for DOTARS from what they are saying

    • 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
