ENTRY FORM

($100 per driver for June 11 at Baskerville Rwy)

Motorsport Tasmania and Full Lock Motorsport are proud to present “DRIFTMANIA”, the first drift event to hit Tasmania. This exciting new motor sport features high-powered, light weight, rear wheel drive sports cars sliding continuously through a series of predetermined corners. Not only do they do this sideways at speeds faster than 150km/hr, but do it just inches apart - the most exciting part of the sport!!

On Saturday, June 11, Baskerville Raceway is open to the Tasmanian public both on and off the track. Those who think they have what it takes only need to get their entry form in, and they will be sliding around this tight hillclimb track among what is expected to be a huge turnout of other competitors. At lunch time the Full Lock Drift team will give a demonstration of their craft, followed by more drifting for the entrants until the end of the day. The track officials will then close the track to all but the best drifters of the day. This small group will be given 30 minutes to prove their worth, with the best 4 cars qualifying for the Sunday event at Symmons Plains!!

On Sunday, June 12, the best drifters from the mainland will make the trek to Symmons Plains to showcase their talent in a battle competition, team drift competition, and expression session displays. The best local drifters will be invited to pit their skills against these seasoned professionals, which is sure to make for an exciting day. The crowd will have so much more to do than just watch drifting: there will be trade stands, pit walk, a live DJ, crowd giveaways, and ultimately a raffle to win 4 laps in a drift car on the day!!

    • 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).
