Hey guys

Just a post to let you know that the Nissan/Datsun Sports Owners Club is holding a drag day at Heathcote Park on the 28th of May (its a Saturday).

Entry is open to all Nissan/Datsun vehicles and you don't need to be a member to enter the event.

There are numerous classes to cater for a wide variety of models, so there is something to suit everyone. The finer details of the classes are still being finalised.

For more information you can email contact(at)mazdarotary.net for an information sheet which will be available in the next week or so.

Thanks!

I'm pleased to be able to announce that we have also managed to secure a couple of the fastest Nissan's in the country for this event. Coming over from South Australia are:

Theo Spartalis' GT Autosound S15 Drag Car ( http://www.gtautosound.com/projects2.php?s...section=s15drag )

Keir Wilson's two R32 Drag GT-Rs ( http://www.ausautoportal.com/willall/draggtr.htm )

With just over a month to go, the event is shaping up to be a real treat for Nissan/Datsun fans.

Remeber for more information please email contact'at'mazdarotary.net

you can enter on the day, thats no problem.

Entry doesn't have to be confirmed early, but it can help to organise things a little better and get an idea of the number of cars per class etc... :D

    • 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).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
