I know that R&R Manly is a right PAIN to park for, but it's sooooooooo much nicer than the restaurant in Gordon... So it's got my vote :)

Richard, I'm all up for going to different restaurants, but you have to admit that the steaks at R&R are quite excellent (without having to resort to city parking to goto Prime or Kingsleys) and Thai Orchid's Volcanic Chicken is right up there in the Thai food championships :)

Next month, you should start a new thread suggesting somewhere else, before I get the picture of me lifting the chunky, professional steak knife up in the air and bring it down in a sweeping motion into the perfectly cooked, medium rare cut of Ribeye King Island Angus Beef on a wooden cutting board. As I savour the taste and dripping blood of that MEAT, I stab wildly into the pile of well done fries on the side of the wooden board and lift heftily towards my mouth as my other hand grabs at an ice cold beer to wash down the spoils of war....

Ahem. I'm hungry now.

There's a council car park on Whistler St - Another one near Coles, Parking under Manly Wharf too - Plus there is street parking - you may have to do a few laps, but you always get one. What are you guys on about - there is plenty of parking in Manly !

Anyway - I vote for R&R Manly - cause I can walk home from there :D Plus the steaks are great.

BTW - If you wanna buy one of those Steak Knives that they use there - don't get it form R&R ($20 or something) - Go to the 'House of Knives' - $6.50 each - They are DAMN GOOD STEAK KNIVES.

point taken you steak munching biatch!

I do admit R+R is good, but F#@king expensive... from memory the good steak is around $50? as always though I'm down for whatever. gangbang etc.

    • 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).
