You don't speak for me mate

Thanks for your comments but if you have nothing positive to say please refrain

Thanks mate...yes it will be hard to part with them

You Have probably already thought of this but if you don't get a real good price here perhaps also try selling it in auto trader and unique cars magazines...i always see HEAPS of plates in there!

Good luck R34 i hope you get a nice price for em!:uh-huh:

To answer some questions on my thread in the for sale section.

Yes Micko and Rod I've sold the 34.

I advertised it in the Sunday times for 4 weeks and got no calls for her at all until last week. I'd decided that I was meant to keep her.

The guy came around after looking at one at a dealer for the same price I was asking ($42k) mine had done 20,000kms less and had gear on it that would cost nearly $20,000 to replace......no contest really.

We had around $70k tied up in two cars when we only used one at a time which in the end seemed silly. We decided to sell both cars and get one to do both jobs i.e practical (sort of) and fun to play with too hence we pick up the new car on Tuesday.............................R34 the traitor runs and hides

Sorry Micko please forgive me I have sinned.

Was going to ring you today but was still in mourning.

It's not an STI just a poverty pack rex.

The manuals have a nice light clutch and the auto version is woeful. So we got a manual. Any mods will have to be minor as I can't fit a heavy clutch because of my crook foot. So far so good plus Tennille has offered to drive it for me.

Next MC day she gets to drive the rex so no excuses for her now:)

Hmmm...well if we are to continue as friends I will be forced to review my opinion of WRX's:uh-huh:

I must admit that the first thing that I noticed with the MY01 onwards was how light the clutch felt so I hope that a manual doesn't cause you any grief mate.

You have to bring the car around to show it off.

    • 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).
