I bought a copy of the complete 1990, 1991 & 1992 races from a dude in NZ - 2 DVD's for each race :-)

Let me know if you're interested.

I'd be interested in these, especially if it includes the pre-race leadups, which included a feature on the GTR in 1990 if I remember correctly

I bought this a while back... not bad, all highlights though... which is a shame as I wanted full races, has 1990 thru to 1992 (R32's) and prior (R31).

its also part of a box set that has all of the bathursts
I looked at getting this boxset when it first came out afew years ago. Problem is I want more than 1hr of highlights of each race, I want the entire 6-7hrs worth. Size and length isn't an issue these days with DVD's like it was 10yrs ago with VHS.

I'd also like each V8SC race/season in DVD Boxset too but thats impossible.

I bought the 86-92 highlights disk too and was pretty disappointed.

The ones I got were transfers of the complete races from NZ TV at the time - all the lead up included and no ads. They are transfers from VHS so they are not perfect, but still pretty good for 12-15 year old footage. I am happy to run off copies if people are interested but need to cover costs for DVD's and shipping.

Would $30 + shipping for 6 DVD's be unreasonable

One of my mates works at channel 7's archives (they had broadcasting rights for the toohey's races back then I think) I'll ask him to see if we can tally up some original footage. Will probably have to pay channel 7 royalties and I highly doubt us guys on SAU will be willing to foot the bill, but I can still ask what the costs are.

    • 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).
