If anyone has any suggestions of locations, please post them up. Here's some ideas as to what I'm looking for:

* Quiet - can't have people walking through shots or traffic on the road.

* Scenic - either a nice backdrop to put the cars against for static shots, or something that can blur up nicely in motion (trees, buildings etc.)

* Smooth/flat surface - self explanatory really.

* Accessible - Somewhere within reasonable distance from the city.

Locations:

Tally Ho Business Park - Burwood. Has lots of places to take some good shots. Industrial Buildings - Hi-Tech Buildings - Scenic Lake Backdrop - Smooth Surface - Heaps of space and different locations.

Graff Wall - There is a great graff piece on Ferntreegully Rd. that would make a nice backdrop if your into that sort of thing.

Cop Station @ night - Bit of Fun... "DEFECTED DECEMBER"

New Quay - Docklands

Telstra Dome @ night - heaps of room and not much action around the stadium itself + looks GRAND & Bright with NEON + some of the buildings around it are "interesting"

Performance Shop - ?????????

Just some initail ideas

Preliminary Shoot

Date/Time: Sunday 26th December, 6pm

Location: Greensborough Plaza Car Park, off Church St.

Who should attend: Anyone on the list who is available on the day (and wants to drive to Greensborough)

Shoot details: This is really the "pilot" shoot, so if you miss it don't worry. We'll be discussing a few locations, testing some angles, working out any problems we might face.

YES, there will be many more shoots!

There's a place around Albert Park Lake which I like taking car shots... nice when the sun is going down.... great back drop with the palm trees and lake. I'll try take a few new shots of my car later today.... If the sun comes out

Location is on corner of Springvale Rd. and Burwood Hwy. Enter off Springvale Rd. going Nth. @ MYOB Building or enter off Burwood Hwy. @ Lakeside Drive (where VIC Roads is)

I wold say that the MYOB car park is the best meeting spot (out in the open)

Someone may want to drop in and scope the place out if passing by in the next few days.

Please don't blame me if the location is not ideal... but we will have many other shots and locations to visit B4 final compilation is made.

If you guys want a 32 gts-t in the shoot id be more than happy!

My car apprears to be quite clean:

It recently had a re-spray (white) its got 18's, gtr front, no rear spoiler, lowered with tein coil overs and blitz front mount.

Interior is spotless...

take it easy

    • 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).
